Nishijin Hatsuki Kuten Hakata Store 西新初喜くうてん博多店 @ Hakata Station, Fukuoka, Japan.

Another day another lunch and todays menu is syabu-syabu. This place is located in Amu Plaza. Amu plaza have two floors of restaurants and when we went during lunch time, there was queue everywhere. Damn so many people during rush hour, quite mad. 

There were two sauces to pair with your meats and vege. The appetiser was nice, beer was refreshing.

We ordered one of the beef sets, check out the marbling, oh my!

Very very luxurious, portions were good enough for the two of us. We didn't top up any ala carte.

The meal was excellent, slowly enjoyed my lunch. I love the ambience in here, restaurant was big and airy. Had a zen like feel to it, unlike the outside which was full of human traffic.

Hakata Motsunabe Maedaya 博多もつ鍋前田屋 今泉店 @ Fukuoka, Japan.

Dinner time and time to check out the infamous Motsunabe in Fukuoka. Motsunabe is actually a beef offal hotpot with so many restaurants specialising in this dish through out the city. We went to this restaurant called Motsunabe Maedaya.

They have English menu, so it's easy to order.

Some sake and appetiser to start. Forgot what beef dish was this at the bottom.

This is what we came for, the beef offal hotpot! Brimming with goodness. Just mix everything in and enjoy the succulent flavour of the offals with the broth.

Perfect for a cold weather. I keep slurping down the soup, damn good. Gotta try it at least once if you're in Fukuoka.

Loong Mala Hotpot @ Thong Lor, Bangkok, Thailand.

And we just went nuts ordering all the meats and ingredients. Yes, it was worth it to come here for supper. Slept super nicely after this meal.

满族全羊铺 Manchurian Lamb HotPot - 羊肉汤火锅 @ Chinatown, Singapore.

Lamb Hotpot but Machurian style. Lets check it out. We ordered a lamb hotpot, some skewers and some grilled meats.

And finally top it off with a lamb fried rice? Hotpot was good, meat was tender. Grilled meats is my favourites here. Dumpling was not bad too. If anything, make sure order the fried rice too.

鲜记香港火锅 SIN KEE HK RESTAURANT KL @ KL, Malaysia.

We went to check out this new place for hotpot at Wisma New Asia at Jalan Raja Chulan.

Food is good, love the chicken broth for the hotpot.

Sangong Charcoal Hot Pot @ Ara Damansara, Selangor, Malaysia.

First time trying HK and Macau style hotpot. It was so good that I came back for dinner a few weeks later. This post cover both dining sessions.

Both chicken and mutton hotpot is equally good. A tip would be to tell the server make the chicken hotpot extra extra spicy, you'll thank me for this!

Toriden @ Isetan KL, Malaysia.

Chicken hotpot at Toriden KL for lunch, good food and friendly service. Not bad at all, do not expect smack in your face flavours. I find the food taste here subtle and healthy. Don't get me wrong, I'll definitely come back.

Chicken hotpot just starting...

In the mean time we ordered some extras for sharing, very good.

This cup is the chicken broth first scooped after the hotpot was ready. As the old saying goes, chicken soup for the soul, oh my.

Honestly, I think this pot would be an excellent hangover cure. Good stuff, if only I can afford this everyday.
