I love this porridge. i use it as my breakfast
have not tried.
this is my breakfast or dinner meal. love the the fish flavored porridge its wonderful.
I was hungry but had no appetite, so I ate porridge. If I could only eat one thing in my life, my answer would be porridge. The bow is the shape of rising smoke.
Different from the flavors of Guangdong, offering more choices.
these porridge is my morning breakfast. They are very yummy.
I bought both flavors, but the chicken flavor is tastier.
The porridge is delicious, but I suggest adding more dried meat; there's too little. The price could be increased if they add dried meat.

i like the taste but portion is small for one person and its most likely waterly soup than rice soup ,,not much rice inside
didnt have any breakfast food in the fridge. very good item to have for breakfast
Each pack contains a single serving that fits in a slightly large rice bowl. It is not meant to be shared, so you must buy according to the number of people. It tastes good. You can even taste the abalone!
Third time purchase!

It tastes better than it looks. Perfect for a quick breakfast.
It's delicious, but the portion is too small.
