Stuffing ourselves silly

The large crowd at this steamboat house never fails to make me take notice everytime I walk pass the Bugis area. Of course, what always drew me to take another peak inside was the alluring scent of good stock cooked with loads of seafood. Besides, it's $15 per head, nett, which always make me say to Qin, "Next time must try leh!"



So when the guys decided to have steamboat one night, there was no doubt in my mind which place to have it at.



A steamboat is always a place for hungry people, like us! Just look at the amount of food we took! There are also 5 different kinds of soup stock to choose from; Chicken, preserved vegetables, pork ribs, tom yum and ma la (which is a very spicy stock). I didn't try much of the rest because all I kept having was the preserved vegetables stock. It's really good and a little sourish.



The fare at this place is pretty usual with the normal vegetables and mushrooms, fishballs etc. And of course different kind of thinly sliced meat like mutton, beef, pork etc. What sets it apart is that it had flower crabs as well. I've seen prawns in steamboats but flower crabs? First time.



And of course the huge assortment of sauces including sesame sauce, peanut sauce, and some other weird sauces.



Oh! Boy were we full!



But while we were in the vicinity of course we had to head down to Ji De Chi, the chinese dessert stall which I had mentioned in my previous post. The sesame paste which I recommended was definately a hit with everyone being delightfully smooth and well grinded. The mango in grapefruit juice was also refreshing and good.



Some of them ordered three bowls each.



Ah, what a night, stuffing ourselves silly.
