Farmland Porridge Steamboat @ KL

this is actually my 2nd trip to this “porridge steamboat” place. very simply, instead of soup / broth to cook your food, they use very “liquidfied” plain congee (porridge) as the soup base.

they have the usual sets for 2pax, 4 pax and so forth, but i didnt feel like eating too much fishballs, so i ordered my own fav dishes instead.

clay pot to for cooking instead of the conventional metal / steel pot.

love their “special” meatballs. theres some filling inside. a must try!

flower crab 

if you absolutely love porridge / congee, i suggest you make your way to try this steamboat…

of coz they do serve plain soup and tom yam as well…..but thats pretty common :)

price range : RM15 – RM45 per head depending if you order their set or individual dishes with seafood

buttered prawn
the prawns were good, though not super meaty big fat prawns, it was pretty alright.

kai lan with kai lan
i never really like this dish honestly, its basically kailan served with deep fried kai lan. means u get normal stir fried veges with crispy veges. dont like it cause its oily.

garlic scotland clams
this is by far the best dish. the fragrance of the garlic compliments the clams. but warning, this is the most expensive dish. 5 huge clams = RM80bucks. i think if not mistaken its RM120 per kg. so yeah…though its good, its not really worth that much. so much for a first time.

dun understand why there are so many ppl though. its actually located somewhere in kayu ara, in between damansara & tropicana. if you guys are from Klang Valley, from atria, going towards to centrepoint, keep to the left lane, and you will see a Volkswagon workshop. turn left at that junction and go all the way in, you wont be able to miss it. its a brightly litted hut.
