Popular Clementi Hawker Stall Mei Jie Porridge Closing
Its last day of operation is May 31, 2022.
Mei Jie Porridge is a hawker stall at Clementi that’s well-known for its Cantonese-style porridge. It’s run by young husband-and-wife Ivan and Yunita, who get up at 3am almost daily to prepare their porridge using a recipe passed down by Ivan’s aunt.
The couple patiently stir the gruel — which has beancurd skin added to give it extra silkiness — in a pot by hand till it thickens, before adding ingredients like handmade pork balls, snakehead fish slices, innards and watercress.
