I often buy the same product on another platform, and it tastes good and rich, although the ginger taste is a bit strong. It's cheaper on Wee, but I bought it twice and it wasn't salty or fragrant enough. Does the store provide different porridge for different platforms?

The portion is good and the taste is OK. There is a bit too much MSG, which makes me thirsty. The packaging is inconvenient, it is quite full, and when you tear it open, it will press on the top and squeeze out the porridge.

It exceeded my expectations!! Drizzling sesame oil before eating really boosted the flavor. The thin abalone pieces that you bite into frequently, along with the small amount of seaweed, have a great texture and taste. It is light and clean-tasting. It is small, but it made for a quite filling meal. It also felt easy on the stomach. I think I need to stock up on more. Kudos to Ottogi for making this product!

First time ordering this and it did not disappoint
weee.10107607
The 3 of us didn't like the porridge unlike the other 2 items we got from Cheung Hing from the Milpitas location. It didn't have much preserve egg nor fresh pork flavor nor essence. I barely found any yolk & the texture of the egg white which are black for preserve eggs were extra chewy. I hope they aren't fake eggs from China made of inedible material. It's difficult to have bad preserve egg & pork porridge but somehow this made it to the bad list for us. My 2 adult sons wouldn't eat it after eating 2 spoonful. The 3 items from Cheung Hing came inside a thermal bag with a ice pack so most likely they weren't made the same day it was delivered.

Never buying Cheung Hing congee again. I made sure to get both the Cheung Hing and the Ming Tasty congees in this order because I wanted to do a taste test. Cheung Hing has been consistently watery the last few orders, so I figured I’d see if Ming Tasty’s was better. And truly, this one (Cheung Hing) was not worth buying. It was super watery, with very little meat or preserved egg. It came with a small container of ginger and scallions which were clearly rancid based on smell. Ming Tasty’s was thick, smelled fresh, and had plenty of egg and meat. Flavor was better too. Will never go back to Cheung Hing and will be careful not to buy their other dishes either. You can see the photos I posted. The side by side has Cheung Hing on the left (very watery) and Ming Tasty on the right. The egg and meat was just the bit in the middle. The Ming Tasty one had it distributed all throughout. You can see the closeup photos I took of each congee. The Cheung Hing one is white and flat because it was so watered down. Ming Tasty’s is lumpy because it was thick and full of ingredients.
