Fish steamboat is on every customers table in this restaurant, soup is also free flow with no additional charge. Soup is so flavourful that we cannot stop ourselves from having 2 top up in total. Chicken and fried qing long and potato leaves were good. Clam is below average. Would definitely visit again.

They have this Fish Head steamboat which is very nice and rich in taste. I like it personally. But u must bring at least 2 or 3 friends to finish this pot.
