Yong Chun Guangdong Congee
永春廣東粥
A third-generation congee shop on Jincheng Old Street, founded in 1930. Its smooth, rice-less Guangdong congee paired with deep-fried dough sticks is a classic Kinmen breakfast.
This family-run historic shop has been passed down through three generations and was reportedly founded in 1930. The congee is cooked until the rice grains completely dissolve, creating a silky-smooth texture. It is served with freshly hand-rolled small fish balls, minced pork balls with scallions, pork liver, and dropped eggs. It is most commonly paired with deep-fried dough sticks (youtiao), and the shop also sells sweet and savory clay oven rolls (shaobing). It is highly popular, often drawing long queues during peak hours. It open until 13:30, so arriving early is recommended. Located at No. 162-2, Juguang Road, Jincheng Township, inside Jincheng Old Street. Parking for cars is difficult, so you will need to find a spot on the outskirts of the old street, though scooters can be parked temporarily at the storefront.
