Signature Dishes
I love porridge so is my daughter so we always love to go Zhen Zhou Dao. Love the porridge and it was boil together with some premium soup thats why you dun have to add any soya sauce at all to make it more tastier. Beside the porridge they have salmon salad which was very refreshing .... home made sauce make me more appetizing. Braised chicken wings, peanuts and beancurd was just nice too and it really goes well with a bowl of porridge.Ambiance was good too just that limited seats available and it was a bit noisy if is full house.

However, this may be an exception. Run by the chef-owner Mr Sean Goh and his wife, Ms Grace Lim (whose father is the prominent gourmand-actor Moses Lim), this air-conditioned cafe serves unpretentious home-style porridges that are steaming hot and flavorful.Instead of their classic minced pork and pork liver porridge, we went for the Scallop porridge ($18) which was filled with generous amount of sweet and plump scallops that justified its hefty price tag. True to speak, the porridge was not cooked down to paste-like congee but not as watery as Teo chew porridge. Somewhat like a Cantonese-Teo Chew hybrid. Go for the lobster porridge($48) below if you wish to pamper yourself.The Braised Platter $6 consists of pork belly, beancurd puffs, beancurd and egg stewed in dark soya sauce. The flavorful braised gravy penetrates all the ingredients, reminding us of those Taiwanese home-style braised dishes. Same goes for the braised chicken wings $ 4(pic below)which are not too oily but succulent.How can one afford to miss Salmon Yu Sheng ($6) when having porridge? The version here is truly fresh (with an extra seal of approval from the old folk who grew up eating freshly caught fish) and appetizing with the splash of the zesty lime dressing. The porridge may be slightly more expensive than average hawker fare ($3-$6.50) but is value for money. A comfortable and cooling place that allows one to enjoy tasty porridge without sweating profusely.Full Post: www.dairycream.blogspot.sg

The porridge is really tasty. portions are generous. I order the Traditional Pork with Century Egg and my partner ordered the Double Fish Porridge. The porridge actually reminded me of the homecook porridge we grew up with and we can actually have our own ingredients! The you char kway (fried dough fritters) was a heavenly pair with the porridge! We also order extra fritters!As recommended by friends, we tried the Braised platter and the Salmon Yu Sheng and i, too, highly recommend these 2 side dishes! The braised beancurd and peanuts were so tasty, the braised pork also melts in the mouth! The Salmon Yu Sheng dressing was very refreshing and the lady boss told us it was her husband's own concoction in their home kitchen. It's definitely a winning sauce!Price wise i would consider it reasonable, factoring in the cool comfort, the generous portions and the quality of food served.
