Ah Seah Teochew Porridge

Very decent teochew style porridge that has been around kovan area for the longest time. Have been visiting them since I was young. Prices is a bit on the high side especially their fish dishes but the food quality has been good all along. Do drop by and come try it for yourself if you're a teochew porridge lover!

Braised meat is good, long beans are salty. Nothing special about porridge. Ordering is quite disorganized because delivery orders are shouted by staff over customers in the queue. Price of food is $5.60, and I don't think it's much better than average mixed rice stall. Alternative sheltered parking at stars at kovan but need to walk a little.

Homely fare at inflated prices. The taste is nothing much to shout about, nothing your old mother can't cook up. This meal for two costs $17.60. The small portion of braised duck for two pax was listed as $5, and the bottom half of it was lined with half cooked and really old cucumber which was tough more than crisp. The five spice dark soy flavour really comes through though, if you're a fan of that. I prefer my braised duck more ginger-galangal-ish. Come on, the duck kway teow stall under my heartland HDB block has a heartier serving of duck at just $3.50, complete with choice of my favourite carb. The marrow gourd had a good mix of umami-ness, stir fried with krill and glass noodles. The bittergourd egg dish was done just the way I like it with the gourds firm and not overcooked. White radish soup was tasty but hinted strongly of MSG or it could just be the cuttlefish. Rice porridge here is more of the grainy than mushy style.
