128 Fish Porridge

128. Fish Porridge used to be one of my favourite stalls to patronize. While they are known for the freshness of the food served with tasty and favourable soup, the queue was always never-ending in the past, as written in the last post.

The serving of Sliced Fish Soup differed from the last one I used to have. Instead of the usual vegetables, the bitter gourd was used. Food pricing remains the same and chunks of sliced fish were still as generous.

Fish slices were still smooth and chunky in bites.

The sliced fish dipping in the powerful and fiery chilli was something that remembers clearly for the spice was so strong that it gave a sudden chill through my body system.

Overall, I find that the standard of Fish soup is no longer what I used to have in mind. With a number of competitors around the Hawker Centre, there might be a tastier fish soup around.

The never-ending snake queues had been formed orderly ever since 128 Fish Porridge was first opened in Blk 505 Jurong West St 52 Food centre.

Famous for it's smooth, tendered thick and fresh sliced pieces of fish, one could not even resist ordering the biggest portion. Sliced are well handled with every order individually cooked. The tasty soup with fried onion oil, chopped garlic, and small dried shrimps fragrance had gained the applause of the neighborhood residents. They had also added the steamboat vegetable "tang o" which blends well with the rest of the combination.

Freshness of fish

An exciting balechan chilli that that leaves a chill down your spine physically not literally and with a spicy after taste lingers around your mouth. Not forgetting a burning and grinding sensation in your stomach. A quick or full dab of sliced fish in the chilli sauce is SHIOKINGLY Good

Fish Head Soup - $5

Be prepared the raindrops coming down from your head after grabbing these sambal chillis even though the hawker centre is well ventilated and with fans installed and mounted on the pillars. Do get some packets of tissue with you. Tables around the stall are mostly occupied, sitting away from the stall may help. The stretch of stalls where 128 Fish is situated is known for its Bak Kut Teh and Fish/Chicken Porridge, well liked by the neighbourhood therefore seatings around that area may be harder to find.


Price is reasonable and the quality of food is definitely there.
