Post Exam Steamboat

Exams are actually already over long time ago... but we finally have the common time to meet up for our post exam trauma steamboat gathering. Steamboat dinner for 5!

Tiak snipping away the Hotdogs

as well as the fishcake and Tofu... JJ wanted the fishcake, so we forced him to finish all 3 slabs by himself... haha. and Tiak wanted 4 tubes of Tofu... a bit too much for just 5 person la...

Cuttlefish balls and Prawn Balls

Golden Mushrooms - 4 packets of it... I think we very kiasu la... everything also buy a lot... in the end we have a lot of leftovers...

Crabsticks and Hot Dogs

Cabbage!

Eggs!

Chicken Stock Cubes for the Soupbase

Chicken fillets

Tau Poks

Baby Carrots and Corn

Beef Shabu Shabu - This is like the best stuff! We should have bought more!


There were also Prawns, Fish fillets, Button Mushrooms and Pork Shabu shabu...

Special Chilli Sauce for Seafood

Thai chilli Sauce for meat

Preparation of the soup...

We dumped the prawn head back into the soup to add more flavours to the soup...

Beef Shabu Shabu done medium rare...


Towards the end... The Essence of the steamboat...

We had 3 helpings in total... lol. 6pm we started eating our first serving until 8pm... we were so full by then. So we watch TV until 9pm, had our 2nd serving. Watched TV again until 10pm, then our last serving. Very fullllll... But it was nice... maybe we will have a annual gathering for steamboat in the future!
