Chick Feet Kut Teh, Anyone Interested?

I would always ask for extra chicken feet from the chicken stall owner in Kepong Baru wet market whenever I buy chicken from him. The friendly boss would obliged by giving me whole bunch of them! It is real nice to chew on the tendons of the chicken feet. Chicken feet is a must have whenever I ate at dim sum restaurants. My friend told me that it is good for my joints but I am not really sure whether it is true or not. Hope that it can cure my knee injuries sustained during my half marathon running days! Anyway, I decided to throw in some of the chicken feet into my Chick Kut Teh. I had a nice meal of Chick Feet Kut Teh with cili padi (bird eye chili) in soya sauce!

    Pete ~ No wonder! Now I know why your writing like 'cakar ayam'[fowl scratches]eating too much chicks feet since kindy days. On a much nicer n better term in restaurant lingo they call 'foong chow' [phoenix claws], oh what a name! Have not tried chick kut teh yet but love 'loh kai keok'[engrish?] with mushrooms.

    Ya I heard that too. If eat too much chicken feet, writing will be like cakar ayam. You must have been a loyal customer of that chicken stall. Here, have to buy. RM1 only get about 7 or 8 chicken feet :(

    or you can just cook the chicken feet with the congee, it will taste so much better as it mixes with it
