So… What does a theme park has anything to do with food?

Of course they do. This is one of the latest recreation places for family in Kuching.It’s located at Jalan Sungai Tengah/Singai.

If you are coming from the direction of Kuching city to Matang, then it should be on your left hand side.

There’s a place in there called Gold Bar for those who would like to chill with alcohol with friends and family.

There’s also beers available in Sinar Serapi Eco Theme Park.

RM6  for a plate of Rojak.

You can also enjoy Lake Side – Buffet Steamboat here. Adult is RM20.00, children is RM10. Another new place for steamboat. I’m sure steamboat lovers will want to try it out.

Alex Eating House is located at Beach Road in Bugis.

They seem to be specialized in roast duck.

Decided to had our lunch here… When you’re there, definitely you’ll order the duck dish.

Roasted Duck and Char Siew Rice (SGD4).

Char Siew Wan Ton Noodle (SGD4).

Roasted Duck Noodle (SGD4).

I don’t guarantee that it’s nice. It’s up to individual taste but personally I think that there’s better ones out there. However, the pricing and portion wasn’t that bad.

I’m sure Hot Pot a Genting Highlands is no stranger to those that had been there.

The big pot with fire woods and fire is the signature of the place. With the cook weather in Genting Highlands, having steamboat would be nice.

While we were there, we saw that they were having steamboat promotion(RM19.90++/pax), all you can eat and free flow tea. Not sure whether there’s still such offer now. This happened way back in January.

The seafood section. The choice was quite limited and the hot item in this section was the prawns.

The vegetables section.

Various sauces/condiments for you to choose.

Feast!

New Hornbill BBQ Steamboat has started its operation for quite awhile. It’s located at RH Plaza.

This place was previously known as YUAN WEI BBQ STEAMBOAT (源味烧烤火锅). Now, it’s new management and new menu.

There are many types of seafood for you to choose, big head prawn, big crab, and mussels too! These are actually what attract people to go there.

Besides that, if you prefer to BBQ your seafood, you don’t have to get your hands dirty, there are people there to do it for you. If you want to eat fried chicken, you can also get them to fried it for you.

I’m sure many will be tempted seeing this! You don’t usually get this at steamboat places in Kuching.

The cloth pegs are for you to mark your own food when you send them to BBQ. Imagine so many plates of food there waiting for them to cook and there is no way to identified which is yours or otherwise.

You get individual pot so it’s more hygienic.

The pricing:

2 persons - RM27.80/person

4 persons and above - RM26.80/person

No food wastage - 5% discount

New Hornbill Steamboat is opened daily(including public holidays) from 6pm-11.3-pm.

Tian Sian Steamboat comes complete with more than fifty types of Chinese herbs as its base. The soup base is all about natural flavouring that aids in improving health and well-being. Most importantly, it does not contain any preservatives.

The special thing about this steamboat is that they do not provide you with any condiment as the soup base is already rich enough and you do not need other things to spoil the taste.

You can choose to have the original, spicy, vegetarian or the combo (original or spicy) soup base. Small soup base(RM30) is available for those with 3 or less people or the large soup base(RM35) for a group of 4 and above.

This is not your average steamboat place. It serves only premium quality ingredients, from its Taiwan specialty meatballs, to fresh ostrich meat and the many varieties of vegetarian ingredients.

Furthermore, it’s air-conditioned.

You should also try out Tian Sian Specialty Tea, a special in-house brew.

If you are not into steamboat but into coffee, Tian Sian serves the finest Bristot coffee beans imported from Belluno, Italy. Their expresso coffee bean, the Bristot Tiziano contains 80% Arabica and 20% Robusta blend.

The restaurant is open daily for lunch and dinner from 10.00am to 11.00pm serving a la carte menu for steamboat. Reservations can also be made for private functions and the restaurant is able to cater to a maximum of 100 persons.

Posted about Chong Qing Steamboat before but this time this post is to let people that that they had moved in fact long time ago to RH Plaza and so how different it is now. Just click on the link to the previous post and you will understand how I’m trying to convey.


The soup. You can choose the level of spiciness, low, medium or high or I think you can even go from event spicier one. Try to request for it if you dare.


Now you will be greeted with these , it gave us a shock and was disappointed. See picture below.


Used to be served with this but no more.

How can steamboat be complete without the ingredients? These were what we ordered.

The meat looked different too. Click on the link in the first paragraph and you will see the difference.


Total bill was RM52 for 4 people excluding drinks. You have to pay for the drinks when they are sent to you.

If you are wondering where is the exact location, it’s just next to “Pai Jia Le” or if you are standing facing Yuan Wei BBQ Steamboat, look to your left, it’s located at the coffeeshop there. I don’t know the the coffeeshop name though. However once you see the table with a hole in the middle, then you won’t get it wrong.
