Gingko Lotus Brown Rice Porridge: No Animals were Harmed in this Post



You all know that I love animals don't you? I especially love Black Pigs and Wagyu Cattle. Sometimes I love them too much. Time to take a break and spread the love around to some non-animals.

Those of you who want to do your body a favor but not neglect your tongue might want to try this Gingko Lotus Brown Rice Porridge. It's not pretty to look at but it is one porridge that I really don't mind eating cos it is packed full of goodies and for a non-animal food, it still packs some umami punch.



For $2 a bowl, you get the goodness of brown rice, gingko nuts, corn, peanuts, red dates topped with sliced carrots, coriander and vegetarian pork floss to give it a bit of crunch. Tasty way to lower your cholesterol levels and save some animals! 4/5

Conclusion

Healthy, tasty and cheap some more. Not easy to find yah?

Hi i stay near the bedok 216 market and frequent there and i have tried this dish not just once and was disappointed all the time. What i realised is that if you go in the morning, the brown rice porridge is just a bit too salty. But if you go at lunch time, whereby maybe all the water have been boil away, the porridge is TOO SALTY FOR CONSUMPTION!

So for those who are interested to try it pls go in the morning, the ingredients make it a worthwhile dish.

However despite feedback from me that its too salty i do not see the owner improvising it.

P.s The owner (auntie) seems to be quite negligent in hygience practices. Not for those that are easily put off by the cleanliness of the store.
