Safe to say steamboat, or hot pot is more popular in Klang Valley than any other places in Malaysia. There’s simply something special about this cook-it-yourself experience that keeps us coming back for more.
Maybe it’s because you don’t actually need to have an expensive 8-course Chinese dinner to get together for a meal with family and friends. Or maybe you just enjoy swishing thinly sliced meats and dip them into your favorite sauces.

Then there are plenty of soup choices that make every steamboat meal different. If the weather is chilly, go for tom yum or ‘ma lat’ soup. If you need something nourishing or to boost your energy, opt for the herbal ones. Even after you have tried it all, milky pork bone soup will always be a great choice to fall back on.
Here is a compilation of my tried and tested ones for you to explore. The list includes a la carte, buffet, Japanese shabu shabu, Hong Kong style and Taiwanese restaurants – basically any place that lets you cook something in a pot of boiling soup.
