Imperial Treasure Steamboat Restaurant @ TripleOne Somerset

The restaurant offers premium steamboat with really fresh and high quality food. Price is a bit steep but definitely worth it for the freshness and quality. Besides ala carte menu, it does offer set menu for 2 and 4 persons too. My friends and I went for the set menu for 4 person. For the broth, we went for the Healty Chicken Soup and Traditional Pork's Bone Soup. Yes it is spelt as "Healty" in the menu (not sure whether it was a spelling error).



For the starter, we have the fried fish skin. The dip for the fried fish skin was very good. The fried fish skin was crispy and nice but I thought the size was a bit small compare to what I have eaten elsewhere.




Next up was fun time. We were presented with a tray of 12 ingredients for us to mix and match our own dipping sauce.


Lastly it was the main. When it was served there was a commotion in the group. We realized the prawns were alive and moving. OK! this is really fresh! It can be quite a disturbing sight to some when the prawns struggled in the hot steamboat. Besides the freshness of the seafood, the pork and beef were of premium quality too.

The Prata Place @ Springleaf Garden

The Prata Place is a branch of The Prata Shop at Casuarina. Parking slots are very limited here. The prata here is the crispy type and it was really good. Definitely much better than the one I ate at Upper Thomson Road.

Plain and Egg Prata 4.2/5


To get here, alight at Yishun MRT station and take bus no. 169. Travelling time is about 20 minutes.
