This is my extended family favorite steamboat place. Well known for their teochew style of steamboat and cooked dishes, its usually packed on weekends with the table turning over at least 2 to 3 times. This alone explains the popularity of this dinner joint. I was particularly fond of the shark bone with corn soup base which taste so well after one round of seasoning with the steamboat ingredients. We order lots of sides, tang-o, water cress, a red garoupa ($38), pork dumpling ($5), baby clams, different types of tou kee, the special meat ball, the home-made squid ball etc. The condiments are standard with green shallots, chilli padi and garlic. They uses the electric induction cooker which is good as it seems easier to control the heat distribution evenly on the pot. Will definitely return and definitely this time focus more on the Dou Gen Tiao at $5 per plate, Meat Ball ($6 for 7) and Squid Ball ($8 for gluey paste).
