I have been eating home cooked porridge almost everyday since last Monday and it is porridge again when we eat out on Sunday night. This restaurant had just opened at SS14 effective 1/9/2007 (They actually move from SS 19 to SS 14). What are their specialities? It had got to be some kind of porridge. Right, they had many version of porridge and the one with the Chef Recommended sign are Pompret Porridge, Ikan Parang Porridge and Braised Duck porridge. There also have a number of Hakka dishes like Black Vinegar trotter, Stewed Pork with Yam, Hakka Abacus, Soon Kueh and so on
They have been featured by the Star Paper recently on 19 June 2007.
We ordered the Pomfret Porridge @ RM15.00 which is just nice for 2 persons. The porridge are the watery type with freshly slice pomfret meat. The tastes are okay and not really a dish that I keep going back to eat. I will probably ordered some other dishes to try the next time. 
And my son had the Saito Fish ball and fish cakes noodles @ RM5.00/bowl. He said he preferred the Tang House of Fishball probably because they have added some pepper to it which he dont like.

ReplyDeleteporridge shops & Farmland steamboat porridege in SJ. This Tien Kee version is a little different. :)
Keeyit: Like that you must go try it soon. :)
Tried this place last night.
ReplyDeleteVerdict: BAD!!
I had the fish+bitter gourd + tofu noodles.
Here's the breakdown:
1) tiny, thin slices of fish; I'd say no more than a palm.
2) bitter gourd was ok
3) 2 mini pieces of tofu
4) 1/8 of a tomato
5) 2 leaves of lettuce
All this cost me RM7 + 40sen for a cup of warm water.
Had to go over to the mamak nearby to get my fill.
Summary:
Bad, expensive food. Will never go there again.
Clean toilets though.
Had dinner here last night.

Had the Fish + Bitter gourd + Tofu Noodles.
Here's the breakdown:
1) Tiny, thin slices of fish. If laid out, would not even cover my palm
2) 5-6 bitter gourd slices
3) 2 tiny cubes of tofu
4) quarter of a tomato
5) 2 lettuce leaves
All this cost me RM 7 + 40sen for a cup of warm water!!
Had to go over to the mamak nearby for my fill.
Summary: Expensive, bad food. Will never go there again.
Anonymous: Thanks for the commnents.I agreed with you it is expensive and the food nothing to shout about.
ReplyDeleteFor the Fish Ball Noodles, The Tang Fish Ball are much better.
Any you must try it once yo find what they have to offer. If bad, they will lose out. :)
I am intrigue by Anonymous's comment that a bowl of soup with such long list of ingredients is considered expensive compared to the junk food at mamak stall. Have you any idea how much does Ikan Parang cost and the list of all the other stuff in the bowl of soup?
ReplyDeleteOne lousy plate of mamak food will easily cost RM6-8 these days.
Its the case of smokers don't know price of cigarettes.
I have seen quite a big crowd during lunch and dinner time in the few times I was there to know this place is popular amongst those who love home cooked food. Fast food junkie may not like it.
