Introducing an addition to the basement of Clementi Mall will be this Malaysia Style Bak Kut Teh stall which has taken over Ajisen's premises. Though we bid good bye to Ajisen, New Manlee Bah Kut Teh belongs to the same Brand as Ajisen, Japan Foods Holding Ltd.
A little joy over here is that New Manlee offers Black Herbal Soup for the Malaysia Style and White Peppery Soup as the Singapore Style.
