Teochew porridge stall at Bukit Merah View serving simple, comforting rice porridge with traditional sides.
Ri Ye Ong Teochew Porridge is a hawker stall at Bukit Merah View Market and Food Centre, specialising in Teochew-style porridge, a lighter alternative to the Cantonese congee. Teochew porridge retains the grain structure of the rice, served with a range of simple, savoury side dishes such as braised pork, steamed fish, salted egg, and pickled vegetables.
The combination of plain, soothing porridge with flavourful accompaniments is a time-honoured Teochew dining tradition. The stall caters to those who appreciate the clean, minimalist approach of Teochew cuisine, where the quality of each side dish matters more than showmanship. Its name, 日夜旺, suggests day-and-night popularity, and the stall indeed draws regulars from morning through dinner.
Ri Ye Ong suits anyone seeking a gentle, nourishing meal that lets the ingredients speak for themselves. Slow down and savour a bowl from Ri Ye Ong Teochew Porridge at Bukit Merah View. It is Teochew comfort at its purest.
