Rice blended
My husband and I was craving for rice porridge on Friday, so we went to this one shop near our home. 15 minutes after ordering, we got our rice porridge. But funny thing was, the rice porridge looked different. When scooped, there was no starch at all. I know it by one look.
And so, I called to the shop owner and asked her about the porridge. She told me that it was blended and that she added plain soup to it. I told her that that it’s not the way to cook porridge and after few arguments, she finally spoke the truth. She ran out of porridge.
If only she told earlier that she has no more porridge, my husband and I would look for another shop. We felt cheated. In the end, we asked for plain rice instead but ate only a little bit as our appetite has been suppressed.
Truth should’ve been told in 6 simple words: Sorry, I ran out of porridge. I don’t even mind if it was told in 5; without the very first word.

Rice blended eh? hehehehee.. macam macam ada jugooo..
i actually had rice porridge in Malacca once.. it was rice.. with some soupy thingy but it was kinda nice.. they call it porridge though 😀 pelik
anny
bubur la yg paling senang masak rizal.. just put less beras and more water 🙂
emila
hmmm that is why la anny macam nasi air like that but it should be called porridge as porridge always come melekit2 starchy one
anny
i actually like the nasi “air” cos the porridge was not too melekit.. and they put pieces of fresh fish pieces with some shallots gorengs.. sedap gilo.. i can still remember the taste and i had it when i was mebbe 15.. hahhahahaha
emila

Well, blended rice, what’s a creative idea ^^ But if the same incident happened to me, I swear I would never eat at the restaurant again. I hate to be cheated!
