Penang Beef Ribs Soup ~ Cooking it like the Mamak

Soups and stews are a few of my comfort food especially when it is the rainy season. This recipe is inspired by a mamak who sold this kind of soup in Bangsar. I remembered back in those days when i was studying in UM. His stall is a must for me. There was a few times when cash was really really low that i just ordered only his plain soup for RM2.50 plus d bread. That come to a point- he just gave d bread for free... :)
