Mui Kee Congee 妹记生滚粥品 (Shaw Centre)

Congee-centric restaurant located on the third floor of Shaw Centre. Service is bright, full of smiles, and efficient. Tables were slightly too close for comfort, and my partner was bothered by some (water?) stains on the cushioned sofa seats. Food-wise, the Pork Meatballs Congee ($10.90) came piping hot and satisfyingly thick. Elevate the taste with the light sauce and white pepper provided on each table, or choose to upgrade to a set (+$5) for a stick of youtiao, half a century egg, and a drink of your choice to complement the congee. I especially liked the youtiao for being not too oily. However, if I had to choose a favourite from my meal, it would definitely be the Golden Crispy Prawn Cake ($13.90) - so flavourful, juicy, with distinct chunks of prawn, and a delightful crunch from the cubes of water chestnut within. Delicious! If I were to share any complaint, it would be that the prices lean toward the steeper side, with this entire meal costing us almost $36 which would be outrageous if the food wasn't this satisfying. However, restaurants specialising in congee are a dime a dozen in the Orchard area so do pop by for a try!

The congee is very good, and served with a great variety of proteins: fish of different kinds, frog legs, pork liver, etc. However, due to poor management , service is a disaster. Two congees ordered at the same time, but one arrived 10 minutes after the other. At a table next to us, it arrived after the other customers had finished theirs. Should be located at a hawker centre rather than as a member of Les Amis group at Shaw!

Mui Kee is a culinary gem that specializes in Cantonese porridge. While their porridge dishes are undoubtedly the stars of the show, their claypot creations are equally impressive.

The porridge itself is a work of art. It's smooth, creamy, and flavorful, with a delicate balance of savory and subtle sweetness. I particularly enjoyed the century egg porridge, which was incredibly comforting and satisfying. The century egg added a unique depth of flavor that complemented the porridge perfectly.

We did try the claypot frog leg and claypot beef brisket, both of which were absolutely delicious. The frog legs were cooked to perfection, with the meat tender and juicy. The sauce was a savory blend of spices that complemented the frog legs perfectly. The claypot beef brisket was also excellent, with the beef soft and tender. The sauce was rich and flavorful, with a hint of sweetness.

Very long never eat this. Still a notch above generic porridges. Fragrant congee, fresh fish, large crunchy meatballs I'm guessing have cartilage or tendon.
