This has been THE porridge place to go to when we need a good bowl of porridge. Sadly, we have not been here in a while. So it was great to be back here on a weekend morning.
It was easy to spot the stall, seeing the number of customers and cars concentrated around the corner. The place looked the same except for a more formal stall sign " Ah Chiang's Porridge" over the stall. There was even name card holders on the tables. We think that the 'younger' generation must have had something to do with this increased publicity and modernisation.
Other than that, little has changed in the way the stall looks and the work flow. Fran had her bowl of pork porridge, sans liver add one egg routine while I had my pork porridge plus liver plus egg, everything in routine. In addition, a plate of raw fish and 'you tiao' topped off the meal.
In general, the food is still how we remembered it. The porridge was smooth and tasty with little need to add soy sauce or pepper. You could if you wanted to, but it was not necessary. I vaguely remembered century egg porridge being available in the past, but it was not on the menu, neither did I see any century eggs around.
The raw fish was good. Thinly sliced fish covered in a thin layer of sesame oil and soy sauce was so good it could just slide down the throat. All of this, washed down with soy bean milk or coffee... a perfect start to a Saturday morning.
In case you wanna go there...
