Just for posterity I suppose, a post on Kheng Nam Lee Teochew Porridge (715 Havelock Road). By the time this is published, the would have had wounded up their business for at least a couple of weeks.

Will not be going into specifics of the food except for a couple of dishes. Like this fermented bean minced pork, which was memorably creamy and salty and awesome pairing with white rice. I guess I will miss this from them.

We have only eaten here maybe 3-4 times in the past decade. The food's been enjoyable. Never blogged it. What didn't sit well were the prices. There's no visibility to how the dishes were charged and it appeared to be pretty random.

It's usually pretty pricey for Teochew porridge and it's not difficult to get something similar with decent to good quality around the vicinity that is less expensive.

But since they've ended the business, this post would be a record that we once ate here, did not think badly of the food but balked at their prices.

The other thing we liked and found exceptional was their cai por (pickled radish) omelette.

Today was $19. Cheaper than how much we normally pay for a meal here. Don't know why was that so. Don't really care.
