All of them do, but not worth being in the lounge just for that in my opinion.

Not to mention it is sometimes too watery for some people as it has been reported here previously And I believe it is breakfast only?

They only serve the congee for breakfast.

Just go to the arrivals hall and go to Crystal Jade and get it there. The congee at the lounge is nothing to write home about....seriously.

Food in the lounge is good in a pinch, but nothing to write home about. Crystal Jade is definitely better, but it also costs a quite bit more

Is the congee in F lounge any different from that in J lounge?
Haven't been departing from HKG in the morning for ages...

Congee at Crystal Jade,

Is it worth trying next time? Everytime I goto Crystal Jade we get the Shanghai styled foods.

Would think Tasty Congee & Noodle (正斗) in L7 food court is a better choice than Crystal Jade? Don't even remember CJ serving congee. They serve congee all day as well.

Actually, I didn't even know there was 正斗. In that case, they win hands down.
