4 - 1 = 3

Good times don't last. Haa !
I went out with my brother and good friend. We met up rather late as it was raining heavily before we left home. Usually, there would be 4 of us walking around town. One of my friends couldn't make it today even though he promised us, he said he had to stay home to accompany his mother. Well, i'm not sure if that was an excuse he thought of or he really couldnt make it. If he were with us, it would have been better. that explains my topic.
Anyway, never mind him Haa ! We went ahead to a Chinese Steamboat restaurant, KOKA to have our dinner. We were famished ! So, we went ahead and ordered the buffet steamboat. The variety of food were not that many, i'll name a few. Pork, chicken and beef slices, beef, cuttlefish, fishhballs, vegetables, dumplings etc. Just normal ingredients you would find when eating steamboat.
We started off with the appetizer ( shown below ). It was thai mango salad. Seemed to consist of thin mango and cucumber slices, chilli paddies, garlic, peanuts, sugar, salt, vinegar or lime juice. It tasted alright. You could find better thai salad elsewhere.
Shortly after, the dishes came and we poured everything into the pot and got ready to eat !
We talked and ate at the same time, it was enjoyable. As i have mentioned, i was too hungry and my stomach will be filled with air and get bloated if i dont eat when i'm hungry. The bloat was uncomfortable so i couldnt eat that much. I enjoyed a fair amount of food though ^^,
The soup got too salty in the end as the food we put into the soup were high in sodium. That made the 3 of us very thirsty, so, we went to a nearby drink stall to get some drinks after we left the restaurant. We paid S$33++ for each person. Not really worth the money, environment was good but the food ...i'd rate a 6.5/10, nothing really special. They served special dumplings the first time we went there but not anymore =(
The night was over and we went home..with a bloated stomach AH !!
