Hi all, another food photo from me. This time is a very simple and plain food, but yet it tastes so nice.

"White Porridge" (Pak-Chuk in Chinese). I think it is also called "congee".

Rice is boiled in lots of water or broth until the grains have grown many times their size and are still swimming in excess fluid. The grains may also be cooked down until they completely disintegrate and become the texture of creamy rice cereal.

That morning, I was having this porridge at a local hawker stalls. They put some "Yau Char Kuey" on top of the porridge. Its a kind of deep fried flour. Very popular among Chinese community here.

The pink spoon is distracting. Also, I would try to fit the whole bowl into the frame.

Other than that, great job! I just had supper so your pic didn't affect my appetite this time. Heh heh..
