Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Heng Long Teochew Porridge offers a wide array of traditional Singaporean rice porridge and accompanying dishes.

We see consistent praise for the comforting, silky texture of their porridge base and the extensive variety of options, from steamed and braised items to stir-fried favourites.

Many appreciate the home-cooked feel and the ability to customise meals daily without repetition.

However, we note a recurring concern regarding price increases and shrinking portion sizes over the years.

While some find the in-store pricing reasonable for the quality, others report that a meal for two, once around $20, can now easily double.

Delivery prices are significantly higher, with set meals for two costing $25.80 for limited choices and small portions.

There are also reports of unexpected charges for takeaway containers, with one user claiming a $2 charge for a gravy container and $1 for a rice box.

While the food itself remains consistent for long-time patrons, these pricing and portion issues, particularly for takeaway and delivery, are a point of contention.

Best for a comforting, in-store meal, but be mindful of takeaway container charges.

What customers say

Heng Long Teochew Porridge is praised for its comforting, silky porridge and wide variety of freshly prepared, homestyle dishes, offering good value for in-store dining.

However, customers frequently note significant price increases over time, smaller portion sizes, and a perceived increase in saltiness.

There are also strong complaints about exorbitant charges for takeaway containers and rude staff interactions regarding these charges, with delivery prices also being substantially higher than in-store.

Have been patronizing here for more than 10years. Food is consistent though prices has gone up a bit as the portion reduced slightly. The drinks stall is operated separately, you'll have to wait for…
