The new hawker center at Kampung Admiralty, the very first vertical kampung in Singapore, opened recently, and has quite some interesting stalls. Xin Yuan Mutton sells everything, no prize for your guess, mutton.
Mutton Soup, $5.00
I gave their mutton soup a try. Surprised that their mutton soup has little oil , unlike the usually mutton soups in which you can see large patches of oil. The soup is slightly milky, and has no traces of herbs. The only fragrance came from the parsley and spring onion. For people who hate herbal smells, this will be a good choice.
Very important for any mutton soup is it didn't have that singular smell unique to mutton. Most people can't stand that smell, and it is really an art to get rid of it. At this stall, I think they did a good job. Other than the fragrance of the mutton, I didn't detect any unpleasant smell. The mutton was firm, yet still pleasant to chew at. You feel the warmth of the mutton somehow goes into your body, keeping you warm too. It will be perfect if you have it on a rainy day.
They also sell trotters at $2.50 each, minimum order of 2 pieces. They looked good too. I would very much like to try that next time.
Update on 30 May 2018:
This stall had closed down since.
