#Bangkok Jok Prince: A #Grandmother’s Rice #Porridge I was delighted to come across Jok Prince in Bangkok. This Bib Gourmand-awarded establishment is a true testament to the traditional and authentic flavours of a hearty bowl of Jok (rice porridge) with century eggs, fresh meat balls, and other flavorful ingredients. The first thing that stood out to me was the warm and inviting atmosphere of the restaurant. The old school charm of the place made me feel like I was transported back in time to an era where food was cooked with love and served with pride. The Jok Prince #congee was the highlight of my meal. The broth use to cook the Jok was rich, savory, and well-balanced that left me wanting more. The addition of the century eggs and fresh meat balls elevated the dish to new heights. The eggs were soft and silky, while the meat balls were juicy and succulent. Every bite was a delight, and I couldn't help but savor the flavors and textures that danced on my tongue. The accompanying condiments, such as the white pepper and soy sauce, were the perfect complements to the congee, adding depth and complexity to the dish. I also appreciated the fresh herbs and diced scallions sprinkled on top, which added a fresh and zesty touch. In conclusion, Jok Prince is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates traditional cuisine. The Jok Prince congee with century eggs and fresh meat balls is a dish that I will not soon forget, and I will definitely be returning for more. This place is a true gem. [#Feburary2023]

Explored this place as a tiktoker recommended this as a not to miss stop for best eateries in bangkok. It certainly did not disappoint. A Michelin recommended choice from 2018 to 2023; 6 years in a row. Sells mainly pork congee with a perfectly charred flavour. The signature porridge is a smooth congee with a slightly 'burnt' taste, added with handmade pork balls, egg & century egg. Of course, an additional recommendation is to add thailand's signature dough sticks inside your porridge for that added CRUNCH in every bite. Nothing was exceptional good about the service, but it was good enough as the server was attentive and threw in recommendations, got the orders right, and it didn't take long for the food to arrive. The eatery was well maintained; it was definitely clean and hygenic. Well ventilated, but no air con. It's like an 'old school' shop vibes, so don't be expected to be blown away unless you're really into the 80s asian shophouse look. All in all, it's taken my number 1 spot as one of the best porridge I've eaten. I'm no porridge expert, but it's a no-brainer to come again when I have the chance!

After having On Lok Yun, Makan buddy suggested to have some congee since we are at Chinatown area, so we landed at Jok Prince, another Michelin approved shop. They specialize in pork congee with either eggs or century eggs, with pork innards or organs, the same goes to adding soft boil eggs or century eggs. We were lucky that there is only one group in front of us when we waited in line for around 10 mins. Once you are inside seated, you can feel the instant temperature change from all the heat that got trapped inside, while you waiting patiently for your congee, you can order some youtiao or fried dough to go with your congee or the condensed milk. The youtiao place next to Jok Prince supplies the shop with that too, it is listed in the menu and for 3 pcs, it cost THB9 super affordable. Now come the congee, when I passed by the tables, I peeped that most tables order one with the soft ball egg, so we decide to go with one and the other without. There are condiments such as soya sauce, vinegared chili slices, pepper, chili flakes and salt. The first taste of it was full of wok hei though I couldn’t taste too much of the meat flavour in the congee. The meat balls were large, tender and tasty, couple with the ginger slices and spring onions, it is a good bowl of congee. I think the version with eggs (you can choose single or double eggs) makes the congee more velvety but it also feels like a bit watered down because of the eggs. I enjoyed mine with loads of pepper and some soya sauce in it, instantly brought out the flavour. Century eggs inside was just ok for me, it come across rather blend and I wish it has a more pungent century eggs flavour to go with the congee. Nevertheless still a great bowl of comfort food if you head over there for dinner or supper.

Really a trip-worthy visit to this place for their porridge. Firstly, the menu is very thoughtful. Beside having English, they also list down other parts of the pig that you will have with your porridge, and having say that and if you don't like certain parts/organs (like I will only take liver, stomach) in one of the mixed porridges, it is so easy to just point and inform the staff without getting overcharge etc. To the porridge itself, needless to say is really good with the charcoal cooked taste and the ingredients itself, especially the hand-made large minced pork balls just add the natural sweetness and savoury taste to the porridge. Every scoop of the porridge is rich (in a good way) and thick is consistency until the end. The organs I had was liver and stomach and were so well cleaned and cooked just nice. Went around 5pm and waited around 15 minutes and so was ok. There's lots of takeaway as well so recommend to come during non-meal peak hours. Will definitely come and eat here again the next time in Bangkok.

Imagine a little eatery in Bangkok serving Asian congee that is listed on the Michelin Guide - well, we certainly weren’t the only ones who discovered it because we met other tourists there too. This no frills stall continues to draw locals and foreigners alike even after being around 50 years. It’s opened for breakfast and dinner. Go early as they sell out fast. “Jok” means “porridge” in Cantonese. It would be appropriate to think of it as “Prince of Porridge” even though it’s named Jok Prince because they used to be near Prince Theatre. It serves a traditional Cantonese-style minced pork balls porridge with options of pork offal, raw egg or century egg but what makes it stand out is the unique flavour that comes from the way they capture the “wok hei” as the porridge is slow-cooked over intense charcoal heat till smooth. JOK PRINCE 1391 Charoen Krung Road, Si Lom, Bang Rak, Bangkok, 10500, Thailand (walking distance from BTS Saphan Thaksin station).

Went in search for this one since they were rated a 1 star by Michelin. Place is in an alley, fairly clean with a long line of queue, mostly locals with some occasional tourist like myself. Perhaps it's because of personal preferences, but I did not actually find the "jok moo" much to my likings. The meat balls were a little hard & the offals were added even though I asked to not add them. Visitors need to take note that u can try to find a table to sit down first & the girls helping out at the stall would come take your order. I made the mistake of queuing, which took a long while, before I realised that locals were just walking up to the empty tables & sitting themselves after which orders would be taken. For that mistake, I had to wait for a second time after the lady took my orders as the boss was really inflexible even though she helped explained what happened. Prices were really affordable but I would not visit again.
