On the Friday before our Melbourne trip, M invited us for dinner at BTH, a really nondescript restaurant near the Telawi area. Hubby and I were the last ones to arrive…*blush*…so by the time we stepped into the private room that mvo had booked, the two pots containing the stock for our steamboat was merrily boiling away. The room was decorated in a Japanese type of style, ie. you sit on the floor with your legs dangling in the hole below the table. Right on top of the table were miniature lights that flickered like stars…apparently the lights costs more than RM10K…imagine just taking a few bulbs away…hehe…that would’ve more than paid for the dinner.

Thoughts of stealing aside…*grin*…dinner was a multi-course steamboat meal consisting of lots and lots of vegetables and very fresh seafood. The soup was really tasty, especially after boiling the vege and the seafood. I liked the scallops the most as it was really fresh and sweet. Even though the meal was for four, the five of us were stuffed long before we finished putting in all the food to boil! And dessert itself was a three-course meal! We had red bean soup (the guys chose the red dates soup instead), followed by a glutinous rice with brown sugar, followed by konyakku jelly. Groan…stomach felt like bursting after that! The tea was something special…it was served in a see-through tea pot and contained a flower-like bud that would expand in the hot water! First time I’d seen something like that!

After dinner ended, we went to the 2nd floor of the restaurant to have a look at their gallery. After that, we went our seperate ways…with our stomachs groaning under the additional weight, no doubt! =)
