West Central District, Tainan City｜A Hsing Congee

A famous milkfish porridge among local. Don't be discouraged by the line outside the store. They buy the food takeout. You can order and pay before entering the AC room. The portion is good~ the fish is boneless, which is enjoyable to eat. Highly recommended!

Must try the fish porridge when you’re in Tainan! The owners wake up and prepare the daily catch at 4am and closes probably before noon, because business is so good. This is the second most popular place as the other one you probably need to queue for 1.5hours, even if you reach at 8am. For this, the waiting time is around 20-30mins. Fish taste super fresh! And you for to order the dumpling and fried fritters. Since you’re already here, why not order more to try!

How happy it is to wake up early in the morning and have a bowl of hot porridge. A Xing salty porridge on Minzu Road is a cheap and delicious salty porridge that I recently discovered. The soup is sweet and clear, the fish meat is delicious, the oysters are plump and plump, and the fish skin soup is so delicious that it explodes. No wonder so many people give it high praise. The meat dumplings are firm and the leaves have a strong flavor. It reminds me of the meat dumplings tied by my mother, which triggers my thoughts and emotions. The minced meat rice is fine. After all, it specializes in milkfish porridge, so there is no need to pay too much attention to rice products. The environment is clean and quiet, next to the main road, it is not difficult to find, the aunt who serves is kind and pleasant, the indoor seats are equipped with super cool air conditioners, so you don’t have to worry about sweating profusely when eating porridge. Overall, it's really a great place, and I would like to come here often to eat such a brunch full of human touch and nostalgia.
