In response to the question que tal? I've heard the expression "el mismo caldo viejo calientado otra vez." Is this accurate grammatically?

Literally: "The same old broth heated another time."

- Hola. ¿qué tal? - Acá estoy. Otra vez calentando el mismo caldo viejo.....

meaning I´m fine (just doing the same boring thing I always do)

it´s a regional expression
