Explore Chai Chee Pork Porridge, a beloved spot serving delicious Cantonese porridge in Bedok, perfect for late-night cravings with its rich flavors.
Introducing Chai Chee Pork Porridge
As the sun sets in Bedok, I find myself at Chai Chee Pork Porridge — one of the most famous late-night eateries in Singapore. This place not only serves delectable Cantonese porridge but also stays open until midnight, making it an ideal spot for those looking to unwind after a long day.
Location and Getting There
Chai Chee Pork Porridge has three outlets, with two located in the bustling Bedok 85 area. The first outlet operates from 7 AM to 1 PM (closed on Mondays), while the other opens at 4 PM. To get here, you can take the MRT to Bedok station and enjoy a 20-minute walk. If walking isn’t your thing, taxis or Grab rides are quick alternatives.
Exploring the Menu
I opted for a bowl of pork porridge (S$4.50) with an egg (S$0.50). The porridge here stands out for its velvety texture and rich flavor. As I stirred it, a golden layer of egg emerged, blending beautifully into the dish.
If you haven't tried you tiao (Chinese crullers), I highly recommend grabbing a piece before mixing it into your porridge. The crispy texture of the you tiao combined with the mild flavor of the porridge creates a delightful culinary experience. It felt like enjoying the best of two culinary worlds coming together.
Specialties of the House
The pork porridge here is remarkable not just for its smooth consistency but also for the tender meatballs that complement the you tiao perfectly. If you prefer dishes that aren’t overly salty, this meal will not disappoint. The meatballs are not only soft but also packed with flavor, transitioning you from the light taste of the porridge to the more robust flavor of the pork.

Mixed Porridge and Other Variations
On my next visit, I ordered the mixed porridge (S$6) with egg, squid, and century egg. This is a fantastic choice if you want something heartier, with a delightful crunch from the ingredients. The century egg is diced into small pieces, adding a unique flavor to the mix.
Don’t forget to sprinkle some soy sauce and pepper if you enjoy a bit of spice, but personally, I found those extras unnecessary; the porridge was delicious on its own!
Helpful Information for Vietnamese Travelers
If you’re keen on trying this dish, remember that Singapore does not require a visa for Vietnamese travelers staying under 30 days. You can fly from Hanoi (HAN) or Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) to Singapore, with round-trip fares ranging from 3 to 5 million VND depending on the timing. The flight usually takes about two and a half hours. Once in Singapore, getting to Bedok 85 is easy via MRT or taxi.
Conclusion
Chai Chee Pork Porridge is the perfect remedy for a gloomy mood. With its creamy porridge and rich flavors, this spot has helped me forget all my worries. If you’re looking for a late-night culinary adventure in Singapore, make sure to drop by the porridge stalls at Bedok 85 to savor the wonderful taste of Cantonese porridge.
