Huge oysters in the congee @ 新九記粥麵

In the midst of Wanchai, this location is quite interesting, right next to a pet shop selling chirpy birds. Eating congee and noodles, with birds chirping away! It feels like being near a park.

Anyway, the noodles here taste how it should be, it also contained miso soya beans as shown on the picture.

However the congee is worth mentioning.
The dried oyster congee I had was amazing, full of oyster and oyster taste!
For $28, they were a bit different from normal dried oysters, still greyish in colour, not the dark orange hard oysters. Yet when you bite into it, the soft body crumbles into sandy lumps, just like salted egg yolk.
Definately worth trying the dried oyster congee, since the oyster is not dried to a hard form state.

In the congee were bits of finely shredded ginger, so fine, that you can taste the texture but not the over powering taste, then there were little bits of fruit peel!
