Editor’s Note
Last updated 29 May 2026
Our take: Por Kee Eating House 1996 consistently delivers on its reputation as a solid, old-school zi char spot.
We see frequent praise for their Champagne Pork Ribs, noted for being tender, well-glazed, and aromatic.
Other standout dishes include the sweet and sour pork, described as succulent and crunchy, and the deshelled salted egg prawns.
The fish maw soup also receives special mention for its premium ingredients like sea cucumber and abalone, elevating it beyond typical zi char fare.
While the food quality and prompt service are highlights, we note some recurring feedback regarding dining comfort, particularly during lunch.
The outdoor seating can be warm and stuffy, even with fans, and large group table arrangements may feel cramped.
Despite these minor comfort issues, the overall sentiment is positive, with many reviewers expressing intent to return.
We'd recommend visiting for dinner to avoid the midday heat and to fully enjoy the classic zi char experience.
Verdict: A reliable choice for quality zi char, best enjoyed for dinner with family or friends.
