Located wayside from the busy road that sees city centre workers heading home, Peng Hwa makes a strategic supper spot, especially for those who pulled a late-nighter. The small eatery embraces its rustic charm with red neon lights, a wooden signboard and a ready-to-serve plethora of Teochew-style small plates with porridge. Here's a classic venue to get cosy with your favourite colleague. With a bowl (or two) of their warm, runny Porridge (RM1), order the Braised Peanuts (RM3). Typically served at Chinese restaurants as a tidbit, the instinctively simple, melt-in-your-mouth peanuts are perfect with plain porridge. The soft yet crunchy slices of Braised Intestines (RM4) make it a must-order for all fans of offal. Don't forget your greens — go for the deeply flavoured Mui Choy (preserved mustard greens, RM2) or zesty Cha Choy (pickled vegetables, RM2)! If supper has space for one more dish to share, make it the Chinese Sausage (RM3.50). These greasy morsels supply an umami hit to the meal. Pro tip: Ask for a bowl of their tasty soy-based braising liquid, it’s perfect for spooning over your porridge.
Avg price per person: RM15

A small little eatery that houses an array of condiments that goes wonderfully with the simple bowl of well made teowchew porridge.. At first glance, you may missed it out and go for the other stalls of Hokkien noodles or dim sum nearby but this shop is the first stall among that shoplots.. The shops looks rather rundown but the array of accompaniments available is just overwhelming for me to choose from.. In terms of flavor, it's really clean, quite subtle to the bland porridge
Some lighter option for late night eat with Teo Chew porridge. My favourite combination for teo chew porridge will always be braised peanut, braised bean curd and Chinese sausage.
