About Jok Prince Bangrak

Bangkok mornings run on Jok Prince, where thick rice porridge carries an unmistakable charcoal char. Diners pack the snug, 30-seat room on Charoen Krung to lean over piping-hot bowls heaped with chunky handmade pork meatballs and tender offal. Regulars swear by adding a runny soft-boiled egg and crispy patongo straight into the steaming broth, letting the yolk melt into the savory, smoky grains.

  • Signature Charcoal Char: Simmered over charcoal, yielding an unmistakable pot-burnt aroma that permeates the smooth rice base.
  • Handmade Pork & Offal: Bowls come packed with hefty handmade pork meatballs, tender liver, and clean intestines.
  • Custom Porridge Pairings: Add runny soft-boiled or century eggs alongside crisp fried patongo to enrich the thick broth.

  • Generous Handcrafted Meatballs and Fresh Offal

    Bowls are packed with freshly made, seasoned pork meatballs alongside well-prepared organ offal such as liver and intestines.

  • Heartwarming Nostalgia in Every Spoonful

    The warm, smooth rice porridge and smoky undertones deliver a deeply satisfying, home-cooked comfort that evokes fond nostalgia.

    Better than any of the Congee I've had in HK or SG, so traditionally good and heart warming. The congee was smooth, pork patties were bouncy, egg melted perfectly into the congee.
