~ 饮.食.男.女 ~: Asian BBQ @ Prangin Mall, Penang

Hmm… after experience eaten New Zealand Beef Shabu-shabu, feeling like this BBQ meal is similar.

But it’s added with grill and not only steamboat.

This Asian BBQ's Personal Meal Set is RM10.8, inclusive of 10% service charge.

Each set includes:

Thin Sliced Pork, Homemade Meat Balls, Udon Noodles, Shitake Mushroom, Cabbage, Carrot, A Bowl of Rice, and Clear soup base.

Homemade sauce using fresh ingredients.

Mainly 4 ingredients to make this special sauce, which is garlic and small chili, another 2 types…secret…u try it out then u’ll know.

The ingredient on the right is pork fat, will use it later.

Or u can dip with the simple small chili with soya sauce.

Is mainly for those who likes spicy.

Asked the staff how to use and how to eat, these steps are 1 of the ways to eat it.

First, after the soup was prepared and boiled, put in the vegetables and mushroom. Let the soup can taste fresh and sweet with the vege.

Then, using the pork fat to brush the metal skillet to ensure the oil is on the surface.

So that the pork meat wouldn’t stick on it after cook.

Using chopstick put piece by piece the pork meat.

Quite hard to the beginner, because it’s thin layer like a cloth only.

After that, use spoon scoop the hot soup and slowly pour on the meat.

If the hot soup is hot enough, only pour 1x enough to make the raw meat to been cooked.

After the staff showed how to cook, it’s time for me to cook, but end up… no time to eat and cooked all the ingredient only.

Is nice try.

After finish this meal, u might need some beverage to cool down ur body… suggest u take this Herbs Drink (Cold) RM3.70 (人参凉茶), or hot RM3.50

Tasty and slightly bitter

Overall the taste is so-so if u didn’t dip with the special sauce. But after u dip the special sauce, it’s so fantastic and appetizing ur stomach.

The pricing is consider reasonable because BBQ rarely got low price, except u can find a offer price.

Food variety over here is looks standard, it’s mean that they didn’t offer much variety of food.

Environment is clean and bright. Is good place for steamboat with air-cond.

The service is hospitality and friendly.

Few highlight here…

• Self-cooking Mongolian-Japanese style barbecue restaurant.

• Meal accompanied by specially prepared sauce for grilled food.

• Strategically located in Prangin Mall complex, convenient for dining & shopping under one roof.

• Ample of car parks available.

Some reviews:

• Few Asian BBQ focuses on the selection of best-quality meats and fresh vegetables where customers can experience self-grilling.

• In pre-war Japan, it is believed that the Mongolian soldiers cook their food on their metal helmets, hence the idea of Mongolian-Japanese style BBQ whereby the cooking is made on a dome-shaped convex metal skillet and steamboat at the side. Such cooking experience makes dining at Asian BBQ enjoyable and mesmerizing.
