idk why everyone says the taste and texture of frog is like chicken; it DOESN’T. anyway loved the dry chili bull frog ($22/5 frogs) but a lil too salty on its own. so we ate it with porridge ($3) that was HELLA VISCOUS but thinned once mixed with the gongbao sauce. the meat came off the bone cleanly & the sauce was really spicy! ALSO i’ve never had dried chilli like the ones here…it had this pleasant herbal fragrance🌿
3.25⭐ Impromtu Friday date night at G7 Sin Ma. We havent return for very long and WB suggested frog porridge for dinner. We order buy 3 free 2 frogs, having 2 non spicy and the rest spicy. Well, I remembered the porridge used to be complimentary or did I remembered wrongly? The claypot porridge is $3 now and the portion used to be a lot but it only feed 5 bowls now.

Frog leg with ginger and onion (buy 2 get 1 free @ $16)
It's sold at 1 for $8, so getting 3 for $16 sounds like a good deal, but can only choose one flavour and we went for the ginger and onion one (姜葱) versus the dry chilli one (宫保).
It's not bad in terms of taste and texture and it's also served bubbling so it's warm and good, but it's also not extraordinary. Will go again if around that area.
Had frog leg porridge with dry chilli for dinner, and ordered 3 frogs for $16! I think this serving is just right for 2 pax, although the staff will always encourage you to order 5 frogs for $22 instead. Preferred the spicy over the non-spicy version (spring onions), and the spice level is quite bearable for those who are wondering.
You have to pay an additional $3 for a bowl of claypot porridge, which is much more expensive than a bowl of rice ($1). However, I still went for the porridge as I am used to eating frogs with porridge.
First time trying frog porridge and I must agree that it does taste like chicken, only a lot bonier!!
For 2 people we were recommended 5 frogs split between two flavours - dry chilli & ginger and spring onion. We preferred the dry chilli one but I liked the ginger and spring onion one too because it was sweeter, though it could get a little bit jelat after awhile. The porridge ($3 per pot) here has a really comforting taste, although it was very very thick and filling, we could not finish a pot between two people.
💸: $8
💬: There was a diesel smell to it which was kind of a turn off 🥴🥴, the egg was yummy despite being on the oilier side, and came with quite a bit of prawns
💸: $8
💬: Got 1 frog to share between 2 and though it was hardly enough, just sauce and porridge would've sufficed for me
💸: $7
💬: Not spicy enough but woah they really just spam the garlic LOL but ok no complaints i even brought some home and my brother had it for supper and said it was good
A pretty decent 宫保田鸡 (Gong Bao Frog Leg) for supper at that area but there are definitely better ones with a disadvantage of not opening till late night. For supper, it's quite a good and cozy spot to have something like that (of that standard) to fill your tummy if you are at that area. Ordered the froggie with a plate of 豆苗(Dou Miao) and a bowl of rice. For the frog, I felt that the sauce is nice but the frog seems to taste 'separate' from it. The sauce nvr blend in tgt and go into the frog leg (不够入味). As for the Dou Miao, it's pretty good. However, the price is far to pricy for the quality you are getting. Just for a plate of veg, it costs ard $7-8. For the frog leg, it costs $16 for a total of 3 frogs (order 2 get 1 free). But don't be fooled. The quantity you are getting is not a lot. The even more ridiculous part is porridge. For a bowl of rice, it costs $1 but if you order porridge, you pay $3 for it. Not worth it hence chose rice rather than porridge. To sum it all, food is above average (3.5/5) but price is on the high side. Still a good place to go if you are hungry but you have to order wisely if you have a tighter budget for supper.
Frog Porridge ($22)
.
Been a while since porridge weather came back. My go-to place for frog porridge is always Sinma G-7 frog porridge. We get 5 frogs for $22 and can split the frogs to be cooked in spicy and non-spicy styles. Frog meat is tender and juicy. Especially love mixing the slurpworthy gravy into the porridge.
My fav drink to have with frog porridge to cut through the richness, this has a slight herbal flavour that’s mellowed out with the sweetness of the longan.
I always get two flavours when having frog porridge and this is the milder, non-spicy spring onion sauce. Some might find the gong bao too spicy, so mixing the two sauces let’s you choose how hot you want it.
G7 always satisfies my frog porridge cravings and I just love the savoury, spicy sauce from their gong bao frog! We always get this and the spring onion version so you can adjust the spiciness from the dried chillies.
The frogs are perfectly cooked here; silky smooth and very tender. There’s also a variety of other affordable zi char dishes you can order as well that cements this as my go-to for frog porridge.
It's more towards salty dish... N but the garlic balance the taste... A good normal dish to go with their porridge and frog...
We order all gong bao, spicy or nothing... Its not very spicy but the sauce goes very well with the white porridge... Buy 3 free 2 total of 5 for $22... Definitely love it
Ordered 5 since buy 3 get 2 free, only 2 sauce to choose from so we had both 姜葱 & 宫保 and we ate till song song.

Frog was drowned with ginger spring onion (non-spicy) and dry chili (spicy) gravy. Personally prefer the ginger spring onion version. Porridge was smooth and thick that went really well with the gravy. Price is quite reasonable for the portion and special mention to the bitter gourd stir fried with eggs. Give it a try if you are a fan of that.
10 little froggies swimming in ginger spring onion (non-spicy) and dry chili (spicy) saucey goodness 🐸🐸 Frog leg executed well in both the spicy and non-spicy versions, and the sauce just goes unbelievably well worth the porridge?? Love that their porridge is on the thicker side, so it’s just the right consistency after drowning it in sauce 🤤🤤 Special mention of their oyster omelette which covers a generous amount of oyster and sambal that truly packs many many punches 💥💥 Definitely a good place to satisfy any frog leg porridge cravings!
The porridge wasn’t too mushy, and went wonderfully well with the sauce from frog legs. The frog leg meat was cooked just right, very smooth and silky. The spicy variant comes with chilli padi which gives the dish a nice kick. The portion would be just right for 2-3 people, depending on your appetite. Great for a cold rainy day like today!
Come night time, Cheong Chin Nam Road teems with activity, especially at this outlet of G7 Sin Ma Claypot Live Frog (the other outlets are in Geylang and Chinatown). Flavours are consistently good and the frog legs are plump and smooth with a satisfying bite, which explains why it's always crowded with hungry diners waiting to tuck into piping hot claypots of Frog Porridge (from $8). Choose between two sauces to have your frog cooked in — ginger scallion or kung pao. The latter sees a generous portion of dried chilli added to the ginger scallion sauce, giving it that spicy-shiok kick that Tastemaker Justin Teo loves. Take his advice and spoon the lusciously rich dark sauce onto your thick, starchy porridge for added flavour! Pro tip: Apart from frog porridge, our Burpple community also loves the crisp Fried Pig Intestines ($12), a side dish you would best enjoy by dunking into the sweet sauce on the side.
Avg Price: $15 per person
