GRAND IMPERIAL SEAFOOD HOTPOT & BBQ @ PAVILION KUALA LUMPUR
When it comes to hotpot, I’m always game.

There’s something very comforting about eating food that’s blanched or boiled to the right doneness and eating it right away. Love the understated elegance of the restaurant! The latest outlet to join the Grand Imperial Group is located on the 9th Floor of … [Read more...]

SAUNA STEAMBOAT @ YOUMIQI CUISINE
“Sauna steamboat” is the new buzz in steamboat dining these days. There are several restaurants which are doing a roaring business with this new trend. Basically, it’s steaming raw fresh food over boiling stock. Instead of the usual steamboat where raw food is dunked into boiling soup, food is placed on a steaming tray and slowly steamed over the soup. Juices from the steamed food drip into the soup below, thus intensifying the flavour over time. Trust me, by the time you have steamed the … [Read more...]
Ding Emperor – Premium Steamboat at fair prices
It’s no secret that I love steamboat or hot pot as some may call it. There’s something truly enjoyable about eating freshly cooked food, like right out of the pot! Nothing can be fresher than eating that piece of meat, fish or vegetables that have just been dunked into hot soup and cooked to just the perfect done-ness. Besides, it’s also healthier as not much oil is involved unless you choose to dunk in fatty meats. I always go for clear soup in my steamboat. That’s the best medium to … [Read more...]
