Very nice steamboat. Soup wise is individual one pot. Come with welcome drink. Price wise it’s reasonable. Selection of food is quite a lot. Prawn is fresh. The meat was cut into very thin slices which make it very tender. The ice cream is nice also

17 June 2025: My second time here! They served delicious food! My favourite meat is the PORK SHOULDER! It is so soft, tender and it melts in your mouth after you cook it well in the hotpot! Their Taiwanese braised pork rice was extremely delicious! Thank you for the wonderful meal and we will back soon!

Great cuts of meats, very lean and fresh. Seafood was frozen though, but still passable. Lots of space to manouvre around the restaurant, and staff are always attentive to help remove empty plates. …
