Click for Chinese Version
Steamboat-ing is always the better idea for a dinner in the cold weather, especially during this raining season in Penang. It is always a good idea for a friends and family gathering as well. Well, today I would like to introduce to you all this newly opened steamboat shop, Guo Xiang Fu Steamboat.
Guo Xiang Fu is located at Seang Tek Road, opposite (slightly left) of Penang Time Square. Another obvious landmark is Metrolux Lighting, Guo Xiang Fu is just opposite of it.
The shop front of Guo Xiang Fu is very unique. They decorated it with the traditional Chinese style wooden door which makes it outstanding among others shops around. With the aid of the yellow banner hung at the front of the shop, it is less likely that one will miss out their shop.
The interior design of the shop is quite simple. They decorated the lower part of the wall with the bricks wallpaper and there are two rows of red lanterns hanging on the ceiling. The dining tables are separated into left and right. The left one is for a maximum of 4 people to dine in and the right one is for gathering purpose. Personally think that the table is a bit small.
If you do not wish to share one pot with others, you can choose to sit at the left side. The dining table at there provides 4 electronic heaters for the customers so that each customer can enjoy their own steamboat.
There are table of four persons with single electronic heater as well. It is suitable for a family of four.
Guo Xiang Fu has offered steamboat packages for 1 person, 2 persons, 4 persons and 10 persons. For ala carte, customers have to pay RM5 (not included the steamboat ingredients) for the soup.
I wasn't feeling well on that that so I have ordered a herbal tea for my drink. Other bloggers recommended Guo Xiang Fu's homemade lemon juice, they said that it was really nice!
We were just 6 people on that day but we have ordered a 10 persons steamboat package. This seafood porridge is one of the soup in the 10 persons package. Personally think that this is the most delicious soup among the other five soups!
The seafood porridge can be ordered as ala carte as well. One bowl of this seafood porridge costs RM28.80. Customers also can choose to have the porridge (without the steamboat ingredients) as the soup and the price is the same as the other soups, RM5.
The seafood in the porridge has made the porridge to taste sweet and nice. Has this big prawn make you hungry? Well, I can only look at it but cant taste it as I am allergic to seafood!
We added two eggs into the seafood porridge. The seafood porridge taste even nicer and smoother after we added the eggs! Though, do remember to always stir the porridge as it will easily become saturated after adding eggs.
The soup of this two flavour hot pot are the clear soup and the curry soup. The clear soup tastes nice and the curry soup is a bit too spicy for me.
Guo Xiang Fu also provides steamboat with three different soup in one pot. We were having the spicy, tomyam and clear soup. The tomyam soup tastes nice. As for the spicy soup, it tastes a little bit salty and not really that spicy. The boss told us that they make the spicy soup to be less spicy as some customers cant stand the spiciness. However, if you are really carving for some really spicy soup, you can always request them to make the soup more spicy.
Does it makes you feel hungry? XD
The sauces provide by Guo Xiang Fu.
