Teochew Porridge



P: One of our favourite cze char restaurants in Holland Village recently closed down, or moved, and was replaced by a Teochew Porridge restaurant. I loved the old place for one of its signature veg dish of lettuce fried with red preserved beancurd ... delicious. We tried the new restaurant this evening and, well, it's got nothing on the old place. We chose beancurd skin, squid, roast duck, kangkong, and minced dried shrimp. The belly pork looked good but Sandy worried it would be too fatty (that's the whole point!) so we gave it a miss. Overall, passable but I won't rush back.

S: Seriously not good! If you've tried other places you wouldn't come back. The selection wasn't big enough. The beancurd skin was tasteless.
