Review: Fong Wah Teochew Porridge

**Non-Halal**

When it calls for light dinner, we tend to opt for simple porridge ala Teochew along Changkat Thambi Dollah. This time we went to Fong Wah Teochew Porridge but sometimes we go to the other one, Restoran Teochew, a few doors away. Fong Wah is the intermediate corner lot one. Basically both serves similar dishes, with porridge or rice.

Fong Wah Teo Chew Porridge (RM16.50)

This time we ordered a fish dish of braised tenggiri (mackerel) in preserved black bean. This is our first time tasting this dish here, a bit salty but went well with the porridge.

FW - braised tengiri with  preserved black beans

Then we have the usual steamed pork with tung choy (preserved vegetable) which is usually a must for hubby whenever it comes to porridge.

FW - steamed minced pork with tung choy

We also have an omelette of preserved radish. Hmm note that majority of these dishes were made out of preserved stuff??? I guess it's the saltiness of them that bring out the flavour to go along with porridge.

FW - choy poe omelette

I asked for this bowl of spicy sour kai choy (Chinese mustard green) which had the right tinge of sourness. Slurped up the whole bowl of goodness.

FW - stewed kai choy

These 4 dishes with 2 bowls of porridge costed us RM16.50.
