Food Review: Mini Boat Porridge

Food

Monday morning, let me tempt you with some yummilicious food review hehe..

I’m sure most of you out there watch HK TVB Series, and they always mention the word *teng chai chuk* (as in mini boat porridge). And you must be wandering what is that. I’ve only been to HK once, stopover and of course I didn’t order any Teng Chai Chuk, but if you want to try it in KL, here you are. Those that eaten before, does it really look like this?

Just a bowl of plain porridge. Top with shredded ginger, slices of century egg, fried ikan bilis, peanuts, cuttlefish, fish, fried vermicelli…yum yum…simple and yet so delicious.

Where is this place, not a restaurant, but a roadside hawker stall at SS3 (I think). It’s very near Taman Bahagia LRT Station, behind a row of shops, where they always call *Big Drain Hawkers*, Yes there’s a drain which is very big there haha…

They also serve Fish Head Noodle which is equally delicious. And next to it there’s a stall which sells fried balitong & shell fish (not my cup of tea though).

  1. I cook a mean “teng chai chuk” if i must say so myself. But I know you will ask me to show you and not talk only kekekeke. Promise, next time we meet up at your/my place, I cook that!

  2. Actually, I think the original teng jai chook doesn’t have ikan bilis. This is Malaysian version.

    But for us Malaysian… poridge eating must be with Ikan Bilis.. sedap!

  3. Looks and sounds tempting. I wanna try but I not familiar with PJ areas. (Yup, I only know KL inside out :P) Maybe u can draw us a map 😀

  4. The ‘teng chai chuk’ u’ve have tasted is truly Malaysian style. The true HKG ‘teng chai chuk’, they have ‘dried cuttlefish, pig skin, salted pork, beef and groundnuts.
