On a rainy evening, I had a sudden craving for congee (粥). Without my mom making her special homemade plain congee, I decided to stroll to 鋮記 for a bowl of 及第魚卜粥. The old staff was incredibly friendly, chatting with me while I was waiting for my takeout. The congee was still piping hot (滾燙) when I got home, it almost burnt my mouth. There were at least 10 pieces of 魚卜 (yes I counted), all having a crunchy texture (爽脆), with the signature gelatinous mouthfeel 膠質口感. 豬什was a mix of 2 豬心, 2 粉腸,
On a rainy evening, I had a sudden craving for congee (粥). Without my mom making her special homemade plain congee, I decided to stroll to 鋮記 for a bowl of 及第魚卜粥. The old staff was incredibly friendly, chatting with me while I was waiting for my takeout. The congee was still piping hot (滾燙) when I got home, it almost burnt my mouth. There were at least 10 pieces of 魚卜 (yes I counted), all having a crunchy texture (爽脆), with the signature gelatinous mouthfeel 膠質口感. 豬什was a mix of 2 豬心, 2 粉腸, 2 豬潤 and 1豬肚. They were fresh and sweet 新鮮爽甜 without any hint of foul smell. The congee base (粥底) was velvety (很綿) and slightly thin, and it was infused with the aroma of scallions and ginger used to braise the fish (爆過的薑蔥香味滲透粥裡). This bowl of fish congee was really in JUMBO size, and despite its deliciousness and trying really hard, I failed to finish the whole bowl. It was immensely satisfying and comforting.
The side order fish skins with ginger and scallion 薑荵魚皮 also rocked! The fish skins were thinner and softer(軟滑) than the ones I had at 正斗, probably from a different type of fish, but you couldn’t complain about the quantity. The ginger and scallion sauce 薑荵豉油 complemented perfectly to the fish skins, and a spoonful of hot congee, a mouthful of cold fish skins mixed with scallions and ginger, I was in nirvana.
The total was only $52 and I couldn’t finish everything on my own. After the meal, I felt that there isn’t any need for SK-II, as I had enough collagen in one sitting.
