Following my post on the Kway Teow Kia stall in Multi Mart kopitiam, many readers commented that I should also try the Hainanese congee or porridge in the same coffee shop. Actually, readers have also mentioned this Hainanese congee stall when I posted about the Cantonese porridge at Taman Johor Jaya.
So, with such strong recommendations, we made a trip to check out this much loved Hainanese porridge stall.
The porridge comes in only one style or maybe one and a half style - pork porridge and pork porridge with egg.
The thick porridge gruel is nicely, naturally sweet and comes generously loaded with ingredients. It felt literary "homemade" where we don't hold back on ingredients :)) The fresh pork comes in thin slices and also in minced form. MR Lim said some customers like their pork sliced while others like it minced, so they decided to include both. The slices of liver were also nicely done - properly cooked yet tender (liver is rubbery when over cooked as you know).
The finely chopped preserved vegetables add an interesting savoury note to the porridge.
The porridge stall starts at 7:00am till sold out which is usually around 1:00pm.
There is a constant stream of customers, including many who came in with their thermos flasks. This porridge is obviously a hearty, wholesome and yet convenient meal. Lovely comfort food, especially during the rainy season like now.
I liked this porridge very much. Recommended breakfast in Johor Bahru. Thank you to my readers who recommended this good food find.
