Malim Porridge Steamboat

There’re several well known shops that are selling porridge in Melaka. I’ve tried almost all of them (I think) but I’ve never been to the porridge steamboat in Malim. So I went there together with my friends.

The waitress took out and placed a claypot with porridge inside with a stove putting underneath it and let the porridge boiled before adding the ingredients. It took around half an hour and I was so hungry that waiting the porridge to boil takes ages.



Finally, it’s time to add in all the ingredients. There are prawns, fish meat, pork, hotdogs, tofu, meatballs, crabsticks, yam and I don’t know the names for the other ingredients. Who cares? I went there to eat, not to identify food... hehe!



The waitress started to put the ingredients into the claypot and closed the cover to let them boil again. Haih… have to wait again.



After waiting for a long time, finally it’s the time to feast! The porridge is watery where there’s almost no grain inside the porridge at all.



We asked for the refills of ingredients and porridge whenever they were finished. Just that starting on the second refills of the ingredients, you won’t get prawns and fish meat.



The porridge is ok only, and the price for each person is RM12.80. A little bit expensive where you’ll feel full quickly as you’re eating the porridge like drinking water and the ingredients are well, those not-so-expensive food.
