OpenRicers were spoilt with choices and had the opportunity to try all the four sets of Steamboat/Hotpots such as Mookata Set (Stove/Charcoal), Thai Collagen Set and Thai Chicken Hotpot.Thai Milk Tea one of the most preferred beverage was served to most of us before starting our lunch.I opted for Thai Lemongrass Tea.

Thai Milk Tea one of the most preferred beverage was served to most of us before starting our lunch.
I opted for Thai Lemongrass Tea. Icy cold, light and refreshing. With an added flavour of the pandan leaves infused into the drink.This drink complemented the entire meal very well.
The introductory steamboat set was the Mookata Set served on gas stove with a combination of well marinated pork and chicken meat accompanied with fresh seafood, assorted vegetables, Chinese ham slices including Chikuwa.
A bowl of glass noodles was also served for this buffet set.
Diners can opt for either Charcoal or Gas Steamboat. OpenRicers were priviledged to try both types of servings.The other Mookata Set was cooked in traditional Thai style Charcoal grill which provided added flavour to the marinated meats in Tom Yam Broth.
Three types of condiments were served to each person for the steamboat.Each sauce having a particular flavor of its own.
From left to right:
Thai Tomato Sauce, Garlic Sesame Sauce and Traditional Thai Chilli Sauce.
The Thai Beauty Collagen Set was served next.This super rich collagen broth stewed for several hours with a mixed ingredients of chicken bones and chicken meat turning into collagen pudding.
Just forget Botox, this broth will provide all the collagen.
Charcoal Thai collagen broth is jiggly and gelatinous and as it cooked slowly melting into a gelatin (rich liquid).
The Collagen Set comes with array of selected ingredients such as cherry tomatoes, enoki mushrooms, carrots, deep fried beancurd, fresh prawns, cheese sausages, scallops and marinated chicken and beef.With the amount of ingredients added into the Collagen broth, anyone can imagine how the ingredients would enhanced the overall cooking of this hotpot.
I felt the taste of Alfalfa Sprouts is too overpowering for any steamboat.Though this shoots are extremely nutritious, these sprouts makes a better salad than adding into any soup.
Thai Chicken Hotpot was served last.
These tender chicken drumsticks cooked in special recipe sauce which added fragrance, aroma and savoury taste to the overall combination.
The restaurant Chef personally came to explain how he prepared the “special sauce”. It’s a combination of fermented beans and Chinese cooking wine Hua Tiao Chiew and assorted herbs.
Being an ardent cook, this Thai Chicken Hotpot taste very similar to the Hakka chicken rice wine cooked with fermented yeast. A combination of sweet and sourish tinge.
Only hot water will be poured to top up this particular hotpot otherwise the broth will become too thick.
Every meal is incomplete without a dessert.
Each diner was served with a bowl of Aiyu jelly cubes with fruit cocktail.
This ice jelly is made from gel from the seeds of a specific fig commonly found in Taiwan.
A wonderful experience with different types of steamboat servings.Thank you OpenRice for inviting me to this foodie experience.
Wishing the Management and Staff of OpenRice Singapore and
all OpenRicers a "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2016".
Looking forward to more food tasting expedition in the coming year.
Cheers.
