Dinner @ City Hot Pot Shabu Shabu

I met up with the girlfriends to celebrate YY's birthday at City HotPot. This place is introduced by Esther as it's near her workplace and she have dined there quite a few times so she decide to intro this hidden gem to us :) 

Apparently City HotPot has been around for quite sometime and it is actually my first time hearing them. I will call this restaurant a hidden gem because the food and service was really good and the price is affordable.

I will type more as we go down this blogpost :) 

We did make reservation prior to visiting the restaurant because as long you did made reservation, you are entitled to some discounts. I can't remember the exact details but it should be 10% off the total bill. It's indeed a good deal to make reservation prior to visiting. I will totally recommend you to do so if you are heading there for a meal. 

We were slightly late and they did call us to double confirm if we are still going there for our dinner. The restaurant was actually full house on a weekday evening.

Some snaps of the menu..

They have set meals for 2 persons and various prices depending on what ingredients you will prefer for your hotpot. 

Setmeal for 4 persons 

This is the premium 4 persons set meal. There's even lobster meat! 

Their servce was really fast because not long later, they brought our soup over first to let it heat up on our individual induction cooker. 

Our freshly slices shabu shabu meat (there's beef and pork) with our yummy soup base. I ordered their fish soup (on the left) and tom yum soup on the right.

All the food on the table! Looks so yummy! 

The fresh seafood which came later and wasn't capture together with the rest of the food. And if you are wondering, this was also part of the set meal for 4 ;)  

With the birthday girl..

Claire looks so happy here with Esther haha..

Birthday girl with her favourite mushrooms. 

Love this group picture the most.

The variety, quality and quantity of the food served were really good. I went back there for my own birthday celebration because I simply craved for it after the first experience. Will defintely head back there again on special occassions! It's affordable too as we pay less than $30 each for the amount of food we ate :)

After dinner, we head over to Five Izakaya Bar to continue round 2 of the birthday celebration. 

The birthday cake baked by Claire in YY's favourite color.  

The somersby drink we ordered to go with the birthday cake.

To be honest, this is the first time I drink alcohol with sweet stuff haha! It doesn't taste that weird/bad afterall.  

This pic is nicely taken haha! 

So we started to light up the candles and sang a birthday song softly before she made her wishes. 

Done with making her birthday wishes and time to blow the candle..

Yet another group pic and taken by the kind staff there.

Even though the cake was not brought from them, but they provide us plates and forks, and also lending us the lighter ot lit up the cake.

Thumbs up for the service provided to us although we only order a bucket of somersby from them.

That's all about it a for YY's birthday celebration with tonnes of good food and alcohol. Oh well, it's been awhile since we done that and I hope there's more of such meetup in time to come because we are way too busy with our personal life these days.So I do cherish meetup like such.

Till the next meetup then :)
