Bak kut teh lovers, this is for you.

If slurping up hot peppery soup, or chowing down on pork ribs isn't enough, you can now get your own bak kut teh-inspired accessory to display your love for the dish.

Old-school style accessories

To celebrate its 50th anniversary, local bak kut teh restaurant chain Song Fa Bak Kut Teh has collaborated with maker-of-nostalgic-items, wheniwasfour, to produce a line of bak kut teh-inspired merchandise.

The collection is centered around the various concepts of the bak kut teh dish and its ingredients, and features traditional chinese quotes.

There are colourful wooden coasters in old-school designs, drawn in the 1950s Nanyang art style of Singapore, which depict four bak kut teh kungfu masters.

You can also find acrylic keychains featuring the soup, pork ribs and kungfu tea that mimic the look of nostalgic advertisements.
