MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View
From the edge of Chinatown comes Congee Village, with its neon-etched sign that shines bright at night. Coveted for its fantastic cooking (check the front window for a slew of accolades), the menu also has a Cantonese focus. Service is basic and the décor kitschy at best, but it’s clean, tidy, and tons of fun.
While the massive menu touts everything from Dungeness crab to dim sum, it's really all about the congee here. Ladled into a clay pot with bits of crispy roasted duck skin, mingled with pork liver and white fish, or ramped up with blue crab and lobster, there are nearly 30 varieties of the soothing namesake porridge on offer. Pair it with dunkable sticks of puffy deep-fried Chinese crullers for a satisfying contrast in texture.
