2 days ago me and my gf went to this buffet restaurant , The magic of chongqing Hot pot at TangLin shopping centre .Not so bad ,but nothing magical , except for the waiter pouring 八宝茶 with this really really really long thingy from a pot and the supper hot and spicy soup 麻辣汤 ,recommend u pp to go try.
Lol jasmine sitting below the sign board ,
We arrive at the restaurant at 7 pm , the super over enthusiastic manager asked got reserved ?We said," no" Then he said ,"Well if u reserve now we may have seats at 8 pm ."So we agreed , mean time , bored we went over to the shopping centre opp orchard hotel . i think it's called The Forum Shopping Centre.
We Went to
So fun haven been there for so many years liao , Felt like a little kid again . Still amazed with the variety of Legos , Play Doh , Remote control cars etc etc etc. Haha , next time sure bring my kid there play , Yes play only ma , free toys , no need buy de LOL , u wan play , go again lor ^^
Well after tat playing the free toys for a while , wa 7.40 pm liao , time flies when u are having fun haha.
We walked back to the restaurent there the manager told us to wait a while , then zhun zhun 8pm he say ok got seats liao .
Went in he ordered the buffet food selections for us , then came my 八宝茶.
八宝茶is a special blend of eight ingredients. Eight Treasures Tea is a great thrist quencher and it has medicinal properties that help to decrease body heat, promote digestion, induce appetite and relieve fatigue.
Other names:Ba Bao Cha
Ingredients:Chrysanthemum, Tropaeolum, Honeysuckle, Dried Lemon Peel, Dried Tangerine Peel, Haw, Medlar, Rock Sugar.
We had the half chicken soup and half 麻辣汤 as soup base , then we started cooking , The 麻辣 is OMG de lor , whole mouth swollen.
U finish wad u ordered , u can order again , but i think got time limit 3 hrs if i am not wrong .
We keep ordering 金针菇.
金针菇 - The "Golden Needle" mushroom also helps to increase our immunity to fight allergies, viral infections and cancer. According to Professor Chua Kaw Yan who is researching this mushroom, the stalk of the mushroom contains a large quantity of a protein which interacts with the cells in our immune system resulting in production of a number of cytokines that are responsible for the regulation of our immune functions.
Those pp who like prawns , yes they have prawns too , but me and my gf not prawn lovers so gave it a miss .Then came the moment i was waiting for , to see the waiter pour the water from the long long thingy from far far away in to my tea cup .
The guy waiter was not around so the auntie came .
She pour , not really acurate but ok lar . My gf laugh say not zhun de .
Well i explained , She a girl , she dun have to aim , LOL.
After tat in order to find who's the better aimer the guys or the girls , we asked for the male waiter i think from indonesia , He poured and Yes 100% more zhun .
Conclusion , through years of practices , u will normally perform better . haha.
In consideration about the age of the 2 different candidates , age may play a part too .
Example picture of the guy with the long long thing , though not the actual person
After eating , there was desert , u could choose ice - cream or mix fruits.
My gf thinking after eating so much we should eat mix fruits , i fark care just asked for ice cream
In the end the MIX FRUITS turn out to be
Looks more like canned food to compared to a plate of mixed Cut Fruits.
