No 2 - Chicken Porridge
Another healthy and light dish worth trying. The porridge. A dish that consists of cooked rice with too much water.
This extremely light dish has a texture like water; where the porridge is not too over cooked with too much or too little water; Its very flow-y and it does not make you feel bored after a few spoonfuls of it. Its chicken meat is very well marinated with salt, pepper and soy sauce. The chicken meat is not small slices not a whole chunk of chicken meat. It is topped off with spring and fried onions and sesame oil (as shown in the picture) before serving.
Chicken Porridge |
So which store is this you may ask. This porridge store however does not concentrate on selling porridge. It sells an array of dishes from chee cheong fun, chicken wings, dumplings, porridge and noodles. Concentrating on freshly made chee cheong fun, the store does not have a store name except its signature dish of the freshly made chee cheong fun. Located diagonally across from Jin Hua Sliced Fish/Fish Head Bee Hoon. This store's porridge is a must try.
