Overview

New World Congee—what a gem! Tucked away at the Marine Parade Central Market, this hawker stall is like stumbling upon a cozy secret nobody told you about. Seriously, if you’ve got a craving for some warm, comforting porridge, this is the place to be.

It’s a bit of a mixed bag, let’s be real. Some folks rave about the congee being smooth and packed with flavor, while others have grumbled about the service and portion sizes. But hey, for a quick bite, it seems to hit the spot for a lot of people. I mean, who doesn’t love a steaming bowl of congee when it’s gloomy out, right?

The menu? Oh man, it’s got options—chicken, fish, and even some meatballs that have been praised for their taste. I’m telling you, someone said it reminded them of their favorite spot back in NYC, which is, like, high praise! And for a hawker stall, the prices are pretty decent, too. A few bucks can get you a nice hearty bowl, and they even offer takeaway if you wanna scoot and enjoy it elsewhere.

Now, don’t get me started on that friendly owner. He might be a one-man show, but reviews say he’s got a smile that can brighten your day. But I hear there have been some ups and downs with the quality lately. A few people mentioned inconsistency, with watery porridge here and there. Still, the base recipe seems solid and folks keep coming back for their favorites.

If you swing by during the weekdays, you can catch him from morning till afternoon. Just plan accordingly, though—I’ve heard that some customers got there only to find the shutters down. It’s a hawker stall, not a diner, so no reservations and no frills, but that’s part of the charm.

In the end, New World Congee feels like that cozy blanket on a lazy rainy day—sometimes it’s exactly what you need, even if it isn’t perfect every single time. If you’re in the area, why not give it a shot? Who knows, you might find your new favorite comfort food.
