Being a steamboat-obsessed community, Penangites welcome all sorts of steamboat or hotpots; apparently seen from the forever-increasing steamboat restaurants inwards town. Red Stone Hotpot is i of the novel members that pays homage to the tongue-numbing Sze Chuan hotpot but their concept of serving Hotpot is odd in addition to distinctive. Unlike its competitors, Red Stove does non serve the soup/ nutrient equally it is; instead, the Chef cooks inwards front end of you... from scratch. Dining hither is similar beingness at a educate show. The Chef prepares the ingredients in addition to starts the cooking procedure inwards front end of the diners... from cooking until seasoning, diners larn to witness the entire process. Commendable is the role of effective tools to shield the crude from spilling over to diners. The flavors are adept but non mind-blowingly amazing but it is definitely a fun house to take in for the novelty experience.
Firewood Chicken/ 柴火鸡 (Rm 58/ small)
Their signature Firewood Chicken is somewhat similar to the Sze Chuan Spicy Chicken, await to run into the commons combination of Sze Chuan Peppercorns, Dried Chilies, Garlic, Shallot in addition to Chili paste. The Chicken is thus simmered for 15-20 minutes. Diners volition savor equally it is; during this time, if additional (steamboat) ingredients are desired, diners may add together inwards (like whatever other commons steamboat). Meat stock tin thus live on added if constitute equally good dried.
The flavors were bold in addition to the seasoning was topographic point on. The Chicken proved to live on slightly chewier than commons (perhaps equally claimed- gratuitous gain chicken is used inwards Red Stove). Diners larn to customize the spiciness of the Hotpot; equally for us, nosotros had 'middle' score in addition to nosotros idea it was alright- amongst a reasonable spicy punch. Flavors were authentically Sze Chuan but nosotros idea the 'numb' (ma) chemical gene could live on stronger. It for sure reminds us of the Sze Chuan Spicy Hotpot but presented inwards a dissimilar way.
