Classic Cantonese in Lower Manhattan | Jook Gourmet (2)🍲

For porridge, we had Century Egg and Lean Meat Porridge. The rice was perfectly cooked, smooth and flavorful, with a fragrant century egg that wasn’t fishy at all. 🎢 It’s the kind of late-night porridge that brings back memories. We also tried the Fresh Crab Porridge, which was super rich in crab flavor. Every spoonful was pure freshness. It’s so comforting on a cold day. 🍃 Finally, the star of the night: Glutinous Rice with Lobster. The lobster meat was bouncy, and the glutinous rice was soaked in the delicious lobster oil, making it sticky and aromatic. This dish alone is worth coming back for. 🌊 Overall, this place is all about classic Hong Kong flavors—no frills, but every dish is solid. It’s perfect for a post-work dinner with friends or family, or for introducing friends to Chinese cuisine without any misses. 🌸It’s been around for years, so if you come late for a weekday dinner, be prepared to wait. It’s a good idea to make a reservation. 📍 100 Allen St, New York, NY 10002 #NewYork #CantoneseFood #ClassicEats 🌟
