In conjunction with Singapore's 60th birthday this year, Four Points by Sheraton Singapore, Riverview has launched a much-loved dining concept – the Ah Pui Teochew Porridge Buffet. Diners can now enjoy this local tradition at the hotel's Four Points Eatery, which has recently extended its service to weekends. Executive Chef Anthony has curated a line-up of home-cooked fare, featuring classic porridge options like Sweet Potato Porridge and Plain Teochew Porridge, accompanied by a spread of over 20 heritage dishes and condiments.
Teochew Braised Duck
The standouts and crowd favourites are the braised and steamed items, such as Teochew-style Steamed Seabass Fillet, Teochew Braised Duck and Braised Pork Belly.
Seabass Fillet
Braised Pork Belly
I enjoyed both the Seabass Fillet and Braised Pork Belly. The fish was flaky and tender, and the pork belly slices had a good ratio of fats and meat, which deeply satisfied. As for the duck, while the meat was succulent, some came across slightly gamey.
Prawn Paste Chicken Wings
Deep-Fried Fermented Pork
Beyond the classics, moreish treats include Deep-Fried Fermented Pork, Prawn Paste Chicken Wings, and Steamed Otah. The Deep-Fried Fermented Pork impressed with its savoury crust and unctuous meat, sliced into bite-sized pieces for the best experience.
Otah
The Steamed Otah was a delight, featuring chunks of fish meat and a well-seasoned coconut paste.
Chai Po Omelette
Braised Pork Trotter
Other dishes that exude the warmth of home-cooked comfort include Braised Pork Trotter, Curry Chicken, Chai Po Omelette, Soy Sauce Eggs, Braised Tau Pok, and Tau Kee. I adored the Chai Po Omelette, which was done with the right thickness and packed full of the umami Chai Po flavour.
Mui Choy
One particular dish that stood out for me was the Mui Choy, simmered to utmost tenderness with well-balanced flavours.
Condiments
Along the condiments counter, you'll find all the flavours that build a sumptuous bowl of porridge – from Salted Egg, XO Shrimp Sauce, and Teochew Bean Paste to Pickled Cai Xin, Pickled Cucumber, and Fermented Beancurd.
Nyonya Kueh
Glutinous Rice Dumpling in Ginger Soup
Desserts are simple yet satisfying. I ended my afternoon with a comforting bowl of Glutinous Rice Dumpling in Ginger Soup and an assortment of Nyonya Kueh. The rice dumplings were plump and chewy with black sesame. I only managed to grab two morsels before they were all snapped out! Same for the kueh, bear in mind that they are of limited quantity too.
The menu is rotated regularly. Although beverages require an additional top-up, the Ah Pui Teochew Porridge Buffet offers a warm, homely dining experience at the spacious Four Points Eatery, which overlooks the idyllic Singapore River.
