My friends and I decided to try out their steamboat buffet. Included in the buffet price are starters, where each person can order one dish each. Starter - Sichuan-Style Monkey Head Mushrooms: This was not spicy at all even though it's Sichuan-style and has dried chilli stir-fried with the mushrooms. The mushroom chunks were coated with batter, deep-fried then stir-fried with cashews, sliced onion, garlic and ginger in a slightly sweet sauce. It has a very meaty texture/mouthfeel and I think eve

It has a very meaty texture/mouthfeel and I think even those who don't like vegetarian food will love this dish. This was extremely yummy
Starter - House Special Beef: This was equally good!!! I'm seriously impressed by their starters. Even though they said it's one serving, it's quite a lot so each starter can be shared by 2-3 people. Both starters came piping hot. The beef was tender and flavourful, really really good.
For the steamboat, we got two soup bases, Wild Mushroom Soup and Chicken Soup. The Chicken Soup was ok/normal, while the Wild Mushroom Soup had a very strong mushroom taste. Despite this, the Wild Mushroom Soup was very pleasant and unique, different from the usual chicken/pork bone soup. The only thing about the 2 soup bases is that they got extremely salty at the end after adding in all the ingredients.
At the start, they gave us a tray of many ingredients but also said that if we do not want any of that, we can just return them immediately. These consisted of things like a variety of mushrooms and vegetables, sliced fish, chicken, homemade prawn/squid balls, tofu, corn etc. For those ingredients that you want but are not there (e.g. beef, pork, mussels etc), you can simply tick them on their menu sheet and pass it to the staff. We ordered some more ingredients like marinated beef slices, sliced pork, pig stomach, pig skin, mussels, prawns, fried beancurd skin, other types of vegetables, lotus root, yam, fried mantou etc. The ingredients were all clean and fresh, and the portions aren't measly. For eg the muscles were fresh and succulent, the corn was sweet, the fried mantou remained crispy even after a while and the beef slices and chicken were really nice and tender.
I'd also like to mention that their service is really good. They are really attentive and would refill our teapot and also our steamboat with soup without us having to inform them. When you raise your hand they will also notice you and head over to you really quickly.
Overall this is a pretty good buffet steamboat place at a mid-range price
