on one rainy day

…… we decided to have this for dinner.

some of the stuff that went into the pot

got everything laid out on the table.  We had dinner at the porch that night.  The weather was cooling due to the drizzle.  It was fun.

Steamboat or Hotpot.  Took about 2 hours to boil the soup base, wash the food, fry garlic oil and etc.  Took 30 minutes to finish everything *burp*  We should do this more often 🙂

    What a great idea! Did you eat a crock pot as your steamboat pot? I couldn’t really tell from your photo.

    I used an electrical multi-cooker cos we don’t have a steamboat pot. the pot is not deep enough though but it’s ok 🙂

  6. yes yes.. do it more often and invite your good friends 😀
