taichipanda 3 Report post Posted May 21, 2012 add some dong quai, ginseng and gojizi to "herbalize" the soup la....dong quai and ginseng too heaty; gojizi and garlic dont go well together with bah kut teh, boil with whole chicken to make steamboat soup base will be nicer. dong quai and ginseng are heaty herbs, chicken is cold, just nice to neutralize the heat.

taichipanda 3 Report post Posted May 21, 2012 just many contractors and uncles only mah... nothing to be afraid of. ok, next time i try.... scared to go geylang cos difficult to find parking. that area is really difficult to find parking... friends turn turn turn and turn ended up park at Lorong 17.when ordering the XO fish head steamboat, you can add extra ingredients at extra fee, we usually add golden needle mushroom, add fresh scallop, add sea cucumber, add dung owe, add extra portion of fish meat (red grouper), can also add extra serving of XO. the last 6 of us were there, bill came to about $110, got also order a few dishes + drinks.i want to gather some friends to try my improved version of XO fish head steamboat with special soup base and extra power ingredients.
