Dinner at Yuen Steamboat..

It’s been a while since I last went for a buffet steamboat. Then came the noobs suggesting that we head for the rather famous Yuen buffet steamboat at Sunway Mentari.

Except that I was rather hungry, and when we got there at about 7.30pm, there were about a dozen tables’ waiting list ahead of us. It was about 1 hour later when we were called for our table.
Once seated, we were asked for the choice of soup. We headed to the buffet line right away. There are plenty of big shrimps (both salt and fresh water), crab, squid, and shell fish for the taking. They were all pretty fresh too. Other than a few dozen types of seafood seafood, you can find poultry, beef, various types of fishball and fishcake taste-alike, more than half a dozen vege, kuih, fruits, ice cream, noodles, fried meehun and fried rice. I believe no pork is served.

The claim of fame for this restaurant though, is not merely its steamboat offering, you can get that in many other places. It was their honey chicken wing. We stalked the cooked buffet line for quiet sometime before the chicken wing came out of the kitchen steaming, and it was some 30 seconds before the tray is empty again. We only managed to get a couple pieces per person. The tiny chicken wings were indeed very delicious, with strong taste of honey properly marinated in the wings, it was something you’ll have to try for yourself.

The dinner costs RM 18.80 per person, add RM 1.00 for the free flowing Chinese tea and it’s still less than RM 20.00, a very reasonable for the type of food served.
