so the day before, we came searching for mui kee congee 妹記生滾粥品& found it at level 3 of fa yuen street 花园街market & cooked food centre, but they are closed on tuesdays.
today we came over again (just a short walk from our hotel metropark mongkok), and enjoyed the congee here.
yesterday we started with not so good congee at 极之好粥面家.
thankfully, we had really good ones later at 振记粥面店 at cheung chau market.
mui kee congee 妹記生滾粥品 was just as good.
the 状元及第粥 especially was very good, chokeful of ingredients,all tender & tasty, and very sweet congee especially good with white pepper.
one strange thing about 振记粥面店 was that the white pepper there was like tasteless. strange…
i usually would not order you tiao 油条 from bakuteh stalls, and that applies to congee stalls as well for the reason they are usually precut, exposed long time to air, not crispy & soft.
so we asked the lady & she replied it’s crispy 脆的, but it was totally not! we saw her taking out the pre-cut bowl of you tiao 油条…i supposed that was the only blemish here…
the 鲩鱼腩粥 – grass carp belly congee was also very good. it has a bit of bones, so need to be carfeul when eating.
& carp has a bit of mud taste, so some people don’t really like.
for me, it was very good, fish was tender & sweet & congee was excellent.
this a stall i will always come back. i think prices are around HK$30.
