Lei Cha Organic shop SS2
Have you tried Lei Cha before? Lei Cha, 擂茶 is one of the Hakka dishes that eat with Hakka tea-based beverage or gruel consisting of a mix of tea leaves that are grounded with grains and nuts.
I love to eat Lei Cha very much. My mum can make good and tasty Hakka Lei Cha. I love to eat Lei Cha too as it is good for health. For those who want to do detoxification, Lei Cha is the best food to do the preparation.
I am not going to share the Lei Cha that made by my mum BUT just last week I went to one organic shop at SS2 with my colleagues for Lei Cha.
Overall, I rate this as 3 stars as it doesn’t have nuts. For me, nuts play a main role while eating Lei Cha. Furthermore, the green tea soup doesn’t have the taste of mint. Maybe I am too used to the traditional Hakka Lei Cha that made by my mum.. 
that lei cha looks very green indeed…….
keeyit || Lei Cha is green soup someone called it la
I tried once before. Really hard to swallow except the nuts. haha… Maybe will try again in future. I’m orang Hakka “shy” :p
keeyit || No need to be shy.. Not everyone can eat Lei Cha one.. I have Lei Cha since I was small..
I’m a Hakka, however shame that i never have lei char before .. i keep saying that i want to try it, but i haven’t make it yet
keeyit || Go and try it one day la
tasted it once when my aunt made it…find it bit weird
keeyit || Haha… seems a lot of people don’t like it…
I tried once when I was a child. I was so excited putting all those bits and pieces onto my plate, they looked so yummy, but the minute I put them in my mouth I almost puke. No offence. Hehehehe. It was bitter and smell funny too. However, I would luv to try again if oppoturnity comes one day.
keeyit || Correct.. there are strong smell and taste of mint and tea.. Not many people like to eat Lei Cha.. Especially those who like sweet stuffs.. Lei Cha got bitter taste.. haha.. nvm next time got chance I cook Lei Cha for you la…
I’ve never heard of Lei Cha before. Very interesting.
keeyit || Oo… maybe u try it next time.. see whether u like it or not..
urgh..i don like the taste..
taste weird..i will end up vomitting..
Never tried it before. Looks like Hakka rojak dish liddat wan.
keeyit || Not rojak.. all vegetables ..
I ate the entire dish before and gosh, i dunno why i find it hard to swallow. I’m hakka too but lei char is definitely not my cup of tea.
keeyit || Hahahha.. maybe because of the nuts and all vegetables.. hahahha..
i never heard of such a concept shop before. i imagine must b good for health but bad for taste?
keeyit || Bad for taste? not really depends on whether you like mint or not.. the soup got mint taste.
Based on the comments, it seems that many people don’t like lei cha wor… What is so special about it? There are other ways to detox.
keeyit || Special is hakka dishes.. healthy food.. but not everyone likes it la..
I like the lei cha… it’s all vegetable :-> One of my mom’s frenz did this and invited us over to taste the lei cha…
Yummy!
keeyit || Yeah it is all vegetables.. very health..
and i guess i know which lei cha u went if it is at SS2
i went there for Wan Tan Mee today also
keeyit || Ooohh.. really hahahha.. maybe someone we will meet there ar.. who know?
Definitely an acquired taste…I haven’t been adventurous enough to try it yet!
keeyit || Why, is tasty la
I like the rice, but don’t like the soup. Ya I know Lei Cha it’s all about the soup, but I can’t tahan the taste :p
keeyit || You dun like mint??
are u a hakka? i like lei cha too,im hakka ma.
heard the green tea soup is effective in lower down the cholesterol level…healthy food anyway.
keeyit || Yeah I m hakka lol.. hehe.. yeah yeah.. love it
Looks good. Would like to try in the future. Can you make one?
I love this dish! Actually had lots of it growing up. Love it with lots of bean curd. Yummy!!!
