Talking about famous congee in Guangdong, I think of a small nightclub on the business street outside the school when I was at school. The night porridge there is a famous delicacy. The owner of the shop is Shunde, Foshan. His porridge is very hot. It's real. Every time you taste it, you can taste the fresh and original taste of the porridge. After each evening's training, many students will go there to have a snack in groups. The boss warmly greeted us to sit down in Cantonese. There is no menu here. There are only three kinds of porridge and one soup - preserved egg and lean meat porridge, firewood fish and peanut porridge, salty bone porridge and dried pork lung soup with dates and vegetables. Usually I will order a bowl of salty bone porridge. When it's hot, I will eat it in a bowl. It's very comfortable and satisfying. More than ten years have passed. I still remember the taste of the salty bone porridge. Maybe it's porridge. It's also a beautiful youth.
