Although I have a several places coming to my mind when it comes to having Steambot, however, the one in Shua-shua Le still prevails in my mind. The Tom Yum soup has a very appetizing and extreme sweet and sour flavor and it works perfectly with their specially made chili sauce which increase the flavor to other whole new stage. I really fall in love to their specially made chilli sauce!
The restaurant is very easy to locate, it is in the middle of Atrium A and Atrium B of third floor at Prangin Mall, Penang. They have expanded their restaurant. This steamboat outlet is very famous among the students/teenagers too, you will notice a lot of youngsters patronizing this restaurant. You will smell the piquant aroma of the Tom Yum when you are walking towards the restaurant. The set up for the tables in the restaurant was quite narrow. They do serve other noodles dishes too besides steamboat but they are rather pricey in my opinion, especially their steamboat set and their drinks cost a bomb too. Moreover, there will be a 10% service charge added to your bill. However, this place is definitely a "must-visit" for Tom Yam lovers.
Personal Set (Set A, Rm 24.80) comes with a small portion of beef slices, a noodles (your choice of rice noodles, yellow noodles, glass noodles, white rice etc) and a place consists of various types of ingredients such as shrimps, chicken meat, squid, fish balls, mushrooms, cabbage, egg etc.....The set will be sufficient for one person. However, if you wish to savor this set with an additional person, you will need to pay an extra Rm2. It will be more worth it since the small Tom Yum instant noodles cost Rm7.30. You can always add on for some extra ingredients like noodles. Each portion of extra noodles, be it instant noodles, are priced at Rm2.50 each.
Their beef/pork/lamb slices were perfectly sliced into perfect portion. Simply dip them into the hot soup and cook for a few seconds, the meat will be ready. It will be overcooked if you are trying to cook for too long due to the thickness of the beef. It works perfectly well with the chili sauce too.
The only one that hold my tummy is the price, but once a while is still enjoyable :-P
