Tingzi porridge

Tǐngzǎi Zhōu (Boat Congee) is a traditional Guangzhou rice porridge loaded with a colorful medley of toppings — sliced fish, shrimp, peanuts, sliced pork, fried dough (youtiao), egg threads, and scallions. Originating from the small food boats (tingzai) that once plied the Pearl River, it is a rich and hearty Cantonese comfort food.
