We decided to try this steamboat during weekend.
When we got the menu, we noted that the first page in the menu explained
the history fo Tian Siang. Tian means Sky in mandarin, Siang means Fragrance
in short, Tian Siang means the food aroma from Heaven; and it is related to the Genghis Khan's empire during the Mongolian era.
Let me introduce what is "成吉思汗" Genghis Khan, it refers to a well known chinese historical hero, he started the Mongol invasions that would ultimately result in the conquest of most of Eurasia.
By the end of his life, the Mongol Empire occupied a substantial portion of Central Asia and China.
About Genghis Khan Barbecue usually using lamb and vegetables, barbecued, often at the table.
天香回味鍋 (Tian Siang Hui Wei Steamboat) is invented by Genghis Khan in the 12th century for his soldiers's meal. Genghis Khan understands that in order to conquer the world, his soldiers must have strong and healthy body, and having food with lots of nutrition.
Now, 天香回味鍋 (Tian Siang Hui Wei Steamboat) becomes the successful Taiwanese steamboat. Therefore, this steamboat soup base is cooked with
more than 60 types of herbs/ plants, no MSG added to the soup, and can eat without any sauce.
The atmosphere of the restaurant made us feel like VIPs.
The main colours to furnish this place are greenish gold, the huge wall picture is used to illustrate part of the Mongol Empire that was conquered by Genghis Khan.
Now, get our choice of the soup base, these soup base are cooked
with 60 types of herbs/ plants without MSG:
Original and Spicy combo (天香回味鍋 - 鸳鸯)
Spicy (天香鍋底- 辣味)
Original (回味鍋底- 原味)
Vegetarian (素食鍋底)
(Small for RM30, Big for RM35);
Small for 2 - 4 persons; Big for 5 - 8 persons
Good news is that they allow refill of soup.
We ordered the hand puff noodles (thick and long ramen) (手工拉面)
RM10 per plate
For vege, we choosed asparagus (芦笋)
RM15 per plate.
Then we decided to have vegetarian balls, mix of black bright pearl and white bright pearl (夜明珠,白明珠)
Their utensils are sterilised as shown below
Here come the vegetarian base soup! Wow, the smell is extraordinarily good.
The taste of herbs is quite strong.
Asparagus
It's a bit pricey to have the raw materials for steamboat
but I guess the main attraction is to taste the soup base with 60 herbs
and prepared following the Genghis Khan's way
Look, the handmade ramen is boiling.
And mind you, the ramen need to be cooked with hot soup for 15mins.
For a well cook Ramen, you need to be patient.
Finally, my bowl of healthy and nutricious meal was ready!
The vegetarian ball was very worth to try, firm with substance and nice to bite.
It is pricey no doubt but I think is worth to taste it even just once in life!
Last but not least, we were served the Qing Xiang Cha (清香茶)
and it was non caffeinated. I like the very light fragrance
from the tea and it's very smooth.
RM2.20 for a tall pot
Total damage: RM73.70 for 2 person
