Finding this place takes awhile at the back alleys of Sheung Wan, but the experience here is always worth the journey. Famous for their fish slices congee, the diner itself is a hole in the wall. It is a modest establishment and they will prefer you to take away because of their limited seating inside.

However, if you do dine in, you'll find that it's surprisingly welcoming and warm inside. Not just the congee, but the ladies who will greet everyone with a sense of familiarity, the endless neighbourhood gossips and old orders - it is enough to make you feel right at home. The cosy atmosphere allows one to warm herself up with a good big bowl of congee, cooked to perfection, almost like a reminder of your grandparents' recipes.

What makes their congee stand out? Firstly, the combination of serving size, price and quality is beyond value-for-money. The "small" version is enough to fill one up, and ranges from $27. The ingredients are delicious and mixed in abundance, and the choices are plentiful.

 The shredded chicken & preserved egg congee was a treat for such chilly times. The egg slices melted in my mouth and the shredded chicken came in chunks that was juicy and flavourful. Normally, the meat would be in dry, stringy strands, but not here. I was surprised to find that the amount of meat never ended, despite my meat-loving habits, which would naturally deplete any traces of meat the fastest.

It is truly a congee shop that serves satisfying bowls that allow you to take a break and think of home.
