It’s steamboat weekends again. Big Baby got a craze for steamboat recently, especially the Lamize Sichuan soup steamboat. This is the third time we are going to Lamize for steamboat. The first round was at town but it was quite far away from our place. So we headed to Krystal Point where there is another Lamize branch.

Crowd enjoying the steamboat

There are quite a lot of people this weekends. People seems to enjoy having steamboat even though it’s not Chinese New Year. Usually I have steamboat only during Chinese New Year and during that period, I would say Mom would have make 3-4 rounds of steamboat just for the relatives.

This round in Lamize Restaurant, we are much smarter to choose a room to have our steamboat. The last round we choose table for 2, the table was small as we are facing each other and at the end we have the steamboat boiling and the boiled soup hit our hands.

Rooms for customers

I would prefer to have steamboat in the room as there is one air-conditioner in the room. At least I don’t have to sweat it out and feeling hot during our steamboat session.

Food coming..yeay!

Finally our food is here. I realize all the waiters in Lamize can speak Mandarin language. I wonder where the restaurant owner get them. Does the owner train them up or they can speak the language before they look for the job?!
Amazing though…to have Vietnamese, Burmese or Indonesian (do not really know their race) speaking Mandarin to me.

My favourite food

A must to have

Tomyam & Si Chuan taste

I find myself doing better each time I go for steamboat. I specifically order the dishes I love so that the rest of the food do not go wasted. Prawns, fish ball and crab meat sticks definitely A MUST TO HAVE!

Everyone has left

Big Baby and I have lost count of time since we are sitting in the room. We didn’t realise everyone has already left. By the time we finish, we were the only couples left in the restaurant. Feel pai seh have to make the waiters wait for us.

Perhaps next time we should really sit outside instead of sitting in the room. Afterall we have closed the room door because we want the air-con to feel cold. It was a good dinner though, because I have tomyam steamboat!

Tomorrow is Monday. Today is the last rest day for me, as usual, I don’t really fancy Sundays these days.

I don't FANCY SUNDAY mood

Big Baby proposed to have steamboat for dinner today at Nagore Road Penang. The last time I remembered having steamboat was during Chinese New Year with my family.

Spicy Girl Restaurant

We went to Spicy Girl Restaurant. The owner seems to come from China and opened a restaurant here, however how true is that I am not very sure.

Inside Spicy Girl Restaurant

We went to for steamboat at around 6 in the evening. So there wasn’t anyone as it was too early for dinner. Big Baby and I got a room for ourselves in the restaurant. The best thing in the room is that there is even a toilet inside!

Food ordering from the menu

Little small toilet inside the room

I went out to search for the bathroom while Big Baby ordered the food. When I asked the waitress she was telling me there is a toilet inside the room I was in just now. I find it different to have a toilet inside the room I am eating. The toilet is small and fully occupy and due to lack of space, they even have place the sink just right on top of the toilet bowl!

Dishes need to be order

The dishes for the steamboat need to be order specifically. Usually the ones I have is the steamboat buffet where we can pick the dishes place infront of the counter.

Ready to eat!

The price is only RM40 plus for 2 person. So it’s about RM20 per pax.

For steamboat buffet, you can eat anything you want and as much as you want for RM20 per pax. So in my opinion, going for steamboat buffet is much more worth it but sometimes for a change of environment and style, you might want to try Spicy Girl Restaurant.

It is the usual tradition for family dinner and gathering before Chinese New Year. Usually family will have it earlier a week gathering and also on the Chinese New Year eve. The earlier gathering is for those family members who have married and go back to husband kampung for Chinese New Year eve gathering. Mom wants everyone to gather for makan makan, so its a compulsory attendance.
