We have been talking and planning about having steamboat for quite a while but nothing happened until last Friday. Initially, we were hesitant because we received both positive and negative reviews from our friends. Anyway, by late afternoon we decided to go for the steamboat to try for ourselves. I reminded myself to wear a sleeveless T-shirt and short pants
We were there by 6.15 pm and a couple was there before us.
Only opens in the evening and closes on Mondays.
Address: 48, Laluan Ipoh Perdana,
Taman Ipoh Perdana. Tel: 05-5453609
Nice to enjoy an open air steamboat when the weather is cool and breezy.
Special rates for senior citizen MYR 21.20 (approx. 5.39 USD) incl. GST.
You will need to show proof if you claimed to be a senior citizen.
As we were early, we were free to walk around to take photos.
Some may prefer to sit outside with just the fan blowing.
Can make reservation for big group.
Wall display.
A hot pot with 2 compartments - clear soup & tom yam soup
Another stove for BBQ (right stove).
Self-service - its buffet style.
Different variety of sauces.
If you are very hungry, you can help yourself to these ready cooked food - fried rice, spring rolls, nuggets, fried wantons, etc. and etc.
Different types of vegetables, vermicelli, eggs, etc.
Some of the marinated meat for BBQ.
Get ready the sauces and some seafood for the 1st round.
Some marinated meat for the BBQ and of course the greens.
The cooked ingredients in the left pot ready for consumption.
Waiting for the BBQ to cook - this one needs patience.
After the main course, it was dessert time. We had ice-cream, sweet drinks, all kinds of jelly & fruits.
Pick your choice or choices from the chiller.
Thank you, my dear friend for a delightful and very yummy dinner.
When we came, it was still bright. When it was time for us to leave, it was dark and the garden was lighted up. There was quite a crowd both inside and out in the garden.
Whoever heeds life-giving correction
will be at home among the wise.
Those who disregard discipline despise themselves,
but the one who heeds correction gains understanding.
(Proverbs 15:31-32, NIV)

DeleteLooks good..wanted to go there too :) one day must make a point to try it out. What age is senior citizen? 60 or 55 ;p hoping I can make it senior citizen :) how you rate the place...better than Treasure pot ?
ReplyDeleteYou will have to be 60 yrs and above to enjoy the discount. I haven't tried the Treasure pot yet so I can't compare their rates.
DeleteThe senior citizen, only applicable to Malaysia or open to foreigner too?
ReplyDeleteI am not sure, Sharon. I will try to find out whether it covers foreigners.
DeleteNancy...I haven't had steamboat for a long while now...so I'm really drooling on what you have shown us! Steamboat is a fun way of eating all day long.....aiyo...at least half a day for me;P Better if the weather is cooler:)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Annie. Steamboat is great for a relaxing meal especially when the weather is much cooler.
DeleteNice place to eat a meal. I would have sat outside and certainly ate spring rolls. Regards.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Giga. It is great to sit outside if the weather is much cooler.

DeleteWah....very nice! I would love to have this buffet. The prices are very reasonable too.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Phong Hong. Buffets are worth it for those with good appetite.
DeleteVery nice pictures, Nancy! Maybe it is more cooling outside than inside.. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Claire. I think only cooler when the sun has fully set.
DeleteNow that looks like a very impressive buffet, so many choices.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mamas. There is a wide variety to choose from.
DeleteYou will need to show proof if you claimed to be a senior citizen. Looking old isn't enough?
ReplyDeleteLooking old is not proof enough, need to show our identity card.

ReplyDeleteBy the time we left, the place was pretty crowded.
DeleteHow nice the food and ambiance, Nancy. I have steamboat every Chinese New Year. :D
ReplyDeleteI tried steamboat one CNY but I over estimated and took us 3 days to finish all the food. Lol!
DeleteLooks like a very nice menu. But when you said steamboat I thought you meant you were going to take a ride in a steam ship down the river somewhere, lol. That would be very nice too, especially on a hot day. Have a nice weekend, Nancy.
ReplyDeleteHa ha, I too would love to go on a steam boat for a river cruise. That would be very interesting.
DeleteLooks like a compact yet tasty selection.
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear. Have a great new week ahead!
DeleteLooks good Such a great meal

Thank you, Mahas. It was a great and enjoyable meal.
DeleteWhen I saw the word Steamboat, I thought you were going to be on the water. Different. Fantastic choices and being 66, I'm sure I would be a Senior Citizen. ha,ha,ha.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day Nancy.
Cruisin Paul
Hello Paul, I hope one day I would be on a water cruise. At 66 yrs, you are definitely a senior citizen. Lol!
DeleteThank you, De. Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteGood price for that selection! I'd have taken way more seafood. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Stacy. You are free to help yourself to as much seafood as you can eat. Have a wonderful day!
DeleteHi Nancy, it is fun following each other. My husband and I would like this restaurant and all the choices. Steamboat is a new term to me. Today we are going to lunch at an Indian food buffet, but not so many choices as yours.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Terra. Another name for steamboat is hot pot. We too would enjoy Indian food buffet.
