Stumbled upon this zi char restaurant at kembangan area and gave it a shot since it serves taiwanese sweet potato porridge alongside zi char dishes! the steamed chicken was juicy and the stir taiwan fried pea shoots were also delicious and quite a rare find! chai poh omelette and the minced meat dish paired perfectly with the porridge too! will come back again to try their other items again!
This was a place that brings feelings of comfort home cooked meal ! Really enjoyed the kampong chicken, silky skin and tender meat; getting rare to see ginger paste with chilli ☺️
The fresh cockles were also nice, fresh & briny and addictive. Alll in all, an enjoyable meal you can have with family & friends.
I haven't been to Gu Zao Ren in 9 years, and returning felt like a warm hug. The food is just as authentic and comforting as I remembered! The simple sweet potato porridge pairs perfectly with all their savoury side dishes. The braised pork belly with preserved mustard greens still melts in your mouth, and the stir-fried pork liver is perfectly glazed. I also loved the hotplate egg tofu and the intensely flavourful dark soy-marinated cockles. Highly recommend this spot for a nostalgic, satisfying meal!
Went to Gu Zao Ren Seafood Taiwan Porridge for a late dinner last month and enjoyed our meal! My favourite was definitely Fried Cereal Sotong and Fried Beancurd in Claypot. Opening hours are from 11am-2am, making this a great option for supper.
A perfect place to have dinner or supper in a zhichar setting! The porridge here is great and goes well with the saltier/savoury side dishes they offer
Had a very yummy supper at this spot! Seriously very impressed by the spacious restaurant and there is parking available for diners. Their menu is extensive and has all my favourite tze char dishes. The meat are cooked well, the kailan beef is super tender, cereal sotong has the perfect bite, ginger onion fish is very soft too! Will definitely come back again!
Had the sliced fished, hotplate tofu and stir fried beef with kai lan. Beef was flavourful and could taste the wok hey. Fish was qq and really fresh. The tofu was well balanced. Staff was friendly and service was quick. Overall it was an enjoyable supper zi char!
Tasty, hearty porridge and dishes that is available till late for supper! Visited on a weekday night and my favourites were the juicy braised pork and the cereal sotong paired with the plain porridge.
Hungry late at night and had curry rice with bitter gourd, squid, potatoes and lean meat. Homely flavours, nothing fancy but reliable. It’s the kind of meal that leaves me satisfied and content 》$14
Late night comfort at Gu Zao Ren Taiwan Porridge with free-flow sweet potato porridge. Loved the cold cockles in dark sauce and the creamy pork liver claypot (eat it hot!). Added meicai, hotplate bean curd and qinglong veg for a simple but satisfying supper.
Had a really satisfying dinner here. Really a perfect spot if you’re craving comforting Taiwanese-style zi char dishes. Ordered quite a spread: hot plate bean curd, claypot brinjal with minced pork and salted fish, sze chuan chicken with dry chillies, sambal gui miao, pumpkin porridge and barley. The flavours were all very zhong kou wei, which I really enjoyed, super shiok with the porridge. Service was extremely fast and very attentive. Even while we were still browsing the menu, staff checked in to see if we wanted to order drinks first, which was a nice touch. Will definitely be back!
Dropped by for a late dinner on a rainy Monday night and it was the perfect vibe because the place was chill and not too crowded. The rain made that steaming hot free flow sweet potato porridge feel like the ultimate comfort food especially when paired with the savory zichar dishes. The hot plate venison was melt in your mouth tender and the fluffy oyster omelette was also a major highlight of the meal. We had the sambal sweet potato leaves too which were a solid side with just enough spice to keep things interesting. This is definitely a top tier spot for a hearty meal and I will be back for another visit soon.
