Jackson Market (along Macpherson Road) will cease operation as of 24 Sep, making way for the construction of tunnels in that area. R and I decided to go for the Frog Porridge before it is closed and to check out where they will be moving to.
Good news - their new location is just within the vicinity, next to the Bak Kut Teh stall next to Jackson Market.
The stall specialises in only frog porridge in several variety - onion & ginger, chicken essence, marmite etc. We ordered the onion & ginger frog porridge.
This is the portion for 2 persons - a pot of braised frogs (about 3 frogs I think) and a pot of porridge.
The porridge tastes like the cantonese style. A bit savoury with lots of fried onions. :)
You're supposed to scoop the porridge into a separare bowl and add the frogs and gravy on top. The gravy is very tasty. I guess the quality of dark soy sauce they used must be of top grade + maybe oyster sauce?
Overall, it was a delicious meal but a little expensive - $22 for this meal.
Hi, just where exactly is the new place located? Ever since the place closed down, I've been looking high and low for their new location.
