Another impromptu dinner date with Angela and Ivy. Since I'll be arriving late, I got the girls to find a place first while waiting for me and they decided to try out this new Vietnamese restaurant at ION B3. The girls had already placed their order when I reached. Glanced thru the menu and decided to try the Beef Hotpot.The hotpot set consists of 5 thick & long slices of beef, some noodles & vegetables & 4 pcs of rice paper.

The hotpot set consists of 5 thick & long slices of beef, some noodles & vegetables & 4 pcs of rice paper. But how to go about enjoying the hotpot? You're supposed to cook the beef in the soup; wet the rice paper with the water provided; put the cooked beef & the vegetables onto the rice paper & roll it up like a spring roll! Soup for the hotpot is lemongrass vinegar broth. Broth is sour & it feels like drinking vinegar, but it has the refreshing taste cos of the lemongrass. Looks spicy but its not, and I actually finish the whole pot of soup! Don't quite like the raw vegetables thou.
We also ordered 3 dishes for sharing. Crispy Crepe with Prawn, Pork, Beansprout & Mushroom. I find it taste like oyster omelette but lots of beansprouts, which I really didn't expect it to be that much! Taste pretty good, but too oily
Mustard Lettuce roll with Prawns & Pork. Somehow the prawns & pork taste slightly sweet, probably due to the freshness. Sauce that was served together is very nice. Not quite sure what it is, but it sure taste slightly like sesame sauce. Staffs here are relatively new but are all very friendly & yes, we'll be back to try other dishes on the menu soon!
