My friend kept raving to me about this Thai BBQ/Steamboat place she always went to, and finally, one day after school she brought me and another friend there for dinner.
We chose the $38 set for 2-3 pax, which would have consisted of pork slices, pork belly, scallops and prawns. However as my friend was not big on seafood, we changed everything to just pork. The pot was 'steamboat' style, with a platform in the middle for us to barbecue the meat. We were served some vegetables to go with the steamboat soap, like golden mushrooms, beancurd skin, and cabbage. Pork lard was provided for 'grease' (or at least that's what we used it for at the beginning), and they were guilty pleasures at the end of the meal when it was fried to a crisp.
The meat was wonderful - fresh and succulent and marinated so that it was full of flavor. It went especially well with the chilli sauce provided at the side of every table, which was slightly tangy and piquant, and really appetizing. The soup was tasty enough, but the real star was the meat.
A great meal, just that it left us all smelling of barbecue when we left the restaurant. I would go back there again and again, and maybe try the seafood the next time I go.
