Master Congee

The place was quite small and crowed but the poridge taste nice, pork and liver is good, the frying stick taste oily a bit but cripsy and worth trying

We loved Master Congee so much that we went twice during our Hong Kong trip! It’s always busy, so be sure to arrive early — we came around 9:15 AM and still saw a steady flow of customers. That’s how you know it’s good. The congee is absolutely outstanding — warm, smooth, and fragrant with rice. I ordered the abalone and fresh fish congee, and it was delicious. The fish was clean-tasting and the abalone tender. My friend had the pork liver congee, and the liver was incredibly fresh and perfectly cooked — no bitterness, just soft and flavorful. We also enjoyed the fried Chinese dough sticks (“youtiao”). They serve two types: • The oval one is slightly sweet. • The long one is savory, and that’s our favorite — super crunchy outside, soft and chewy inside. It paired perfectly with the congee. Don’t miss the stir-fried noodles either — simple but flavorful, and they complement the congee so well. Despite being packed, the staff was polite and efficient. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. The only downside is that the restaurant is quite small, and you may need to share a table with other diners, but honestly, the food is so worth it that we didn’t mind at all. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in Tsim Sha Tsui — congee lovers, don’t miss it!

Good food but not worth the hype or a wait. Went at 7:30am on a Saturday and had to wait around 10mins. Plenty of other great options in the area. The rice rolls and fried noodles were good. Super fresh & crispy dried dough stick that wasn’t oily. Wasn’t a huge fan of the fresh fish congee. Felt it lacked flavour compared to classics like pork & century egg. There were also small bones so you’ll need to be skilled at removing them as you eat.

June 2025 We enjoyed the long fried dough (bread stick) tremendously. The porridge kind of bland, however good steam shrimp dough. So many wonderful choices. The only down side was the restroom at the back alley. Worth a look at the real life of Hong Kong people.

Great value for congee menu. Big portion. For tasting, it is OK. Recommend in rice noodle roll menu. If you come early, you will wait not long. If late morning, will have many queue because this restaurant has few tables.

This place serve great rice roll with bread dough. Very yummy. Love the food especially the rice roll. They have great porridge as well. Price is very reasonable. Only thing is a bit cramped.
