Up and About Great Eats

A stepping stone to share the world's great eats and travel places by two foodlovers in love

BBQ Steamboat Buffet @ Tasty Pot, Sunway Mentari

Last Friday, my makan gang felt like indulging into endless food – hence we decided to go for a buffet. Having to travel along LDP highway quite often, I cannot miss the bright sign board (which is a good advertising strategy, btw) which screams TASTY POT BBQ STEAMBOAT.

*

*

So, we decided to give it a go.

*

They have so many choices there, we had difficulty choosing. First we had to choose our drinks, then we had to choose what soup flavour we want, then we had to go pick our food – fuh~ already died of hunger by the time we decide -.-”

*

misc*

Priced at RM 23.80 per person, the buffet is quite worth it, I would say. Not only do they offer mixed rice kind of food (it’s actually not bad), they also have barbeque-d food such as the corn, prawns-in-a stick and the lamb.

The lamb was very good actually, accompanied with the black pepper sauce, this dish was SCRUMPTIOUS! not bad for a buffet ;)

*

For the steamboat/hot pot, we decided to go for Soya Bean Soup and the classic herbal chicken soup. Other choices were: curry soya bean soup, hong kong satin porridge, “chong qing” (peppercorn) spicy soup & thai style tom yum soup.

WARNING: the soya bean soup tastes weird. it’s like you’re expecting a sweet flavour with your savoury food but…. I dont know, I think it made my tastebuds confused.

p/s: but the chicken herbal soup is really, really, reaaaaallllyy good for outside standard :D

*

*

Some of the food available (they have all the basics nonetheless, and more!).

*

oh..oh! There’s one fishball-like thing (the one on the right – below) has “otak-otak” fillings in it.. now that’s something special you ought to try! it’s really nice!

Sadly, not all seafood is worth eating; some was not washed properly and the scallop is not fresh – can’t expect much from RM 23.80 I suppose *shrugs*

*

*

*

But there is one specialty that you gotta try! Some say Yuen Steamboat offers better, but some say it is just as good!

It is the marmie chicken they’re talking about…!

Personally, I didn’t think it was good…Have you tried them? was it up to expectation???

*

*

Overall, the ambience was really good – food kept coming, and there was bg music too (an unfortunate couple trying to earn some donations via singing).

We chose to sit outside for better air circulation, a real ideal place to yam char/catch up with friends and family.

*

*

Time realy flies when you’re feasting… We stayed till almost 10.30pm and the place is still packed.. people kept coming!

I recommend to try this place out, if you do run out of eating places ;)
