This place serves up a comforting bowl of congee. The standard meat ball congee is satisfying on its own but there are options to add on a soft boiled egg, century egg, intestines, liver and mini fried dough sticks.

Generous amount of meat given for the price. Porridge texture is really nice (really like proper Cantonese congee). Service is really fast - ordered and got my bowl of porridge within 5 minutes. There’s an aircon section where you can dine in too. Perfect place for jok.

Old school food stall with yummy porridge. Love the varieties of porridge toppings offered. Service is prompt and you don't have to wait too long for the food. Taste wise, I feel it is better than Jok Prince as it does not have the burnt pot bottom taste. Price is very wallet friendly, and you can also see many locals are there having their meals. A bit of walking from the BTS station, so you may want to just grab a tuk tuk.
