[2025 Singapore Restaurant] Travel Guide for Mui Kee Congee (Updated Jul)

I love cantonese food because I am cantonese myself and if I were to choose my favourite canto dish, that would be my all time comfort food, a thick hot bowl of congee. Congee is such a simple dish but yet it warms the stomach and the soul, and it can be easily eaten as a main and along with other ingredients or side dishes. My number one go to place for such hearty bowl of congee would be at Mui Kee Congee Restaurant. They serve authentic canto/Hong Kong style congee such as beef congee, pork ball or pork slice congee, fish slice congee, etc. Mui Kee takes pride in their congee and even has an instruction sheet to let you know how to enjoy their congee in the best way. Other mains such as noodles are served too. There's mushroom noodles, garoupa fish soup noodles, etc. You can expect nice side dishes such as preserved bitter gourd, drunken chicken in Shaoxing wine, etc. I had their meatball and also beef congee that day, which came along with crispy dough fritters. The congee was smooth, flavourful and full of ingredients. Drinks such as their Hong Kong milk tea and yuen yang are not too missed, it's really good! Come to mui kee during lunch hours and they have affordable set lunch at $12.80. Mui Kee is my favourite all day comfort food place, which I will highly recommend to all. #singapore

We stopped by Mui Kee at Orchard for a comforting lunch, and it really hit the spot in that slow, satisfying way only a good bowl of congee can. The place has a clean, modern Cantonese tea house vibe, but the food still feels deeply rooted in tradition. I went for the Scholar’s Porridge, and it came out steaming hot and perfectly smooth—silky texture, deeply flavorful broth, and topped with slices of pork and preserved egg. It’s the kind of dish that feels nourishing without being heavy. Every spoonful just warms you up from the inside. The century egg was a classic side—rich, creamy yolk and that earthy depth that pairs so well with the plain porridge. And of course, you can’t have porridge without you tiao. Their version was golden, crispy, and still warm, perfect for tearing and dunking into the bowl. That crisp-against-smooth combo never gets old. We also ordered the Chinese-style raw fish, which came dressed in sesame oil, soy sauce, and fresh onions. Light, refreshing, and packed with flavor—it balanced nicely with the warm porridge and gave the whole meal some contrast. The vibe was relaxed, and the staff were friendly without rushing us. Everything was clean, well-paced, and just felt fuss-free in the best way. It’s the kind of place I’d go back to when I want something comforting, familiar, and just a little bit special. #summervacay #singapore #singaporetrip #orchard #orchardtrip
