Lingua Gustatio: Tugoliang Steamboat 猪锅亮

If you are cognizant about the Chinese history, Zhuge Liang is not a strange person to you. He was once a chancellor (politician to be exact) during the Three Kingdoms period. I bet this restaurant owner must be a great fan of him and that is why the acronym is being used as their restaurant's name.
相信大家都知道谁是诸葛亮吧,而这家火锅店就以他译名-猪锅亮。很有创意,
还是老板是诸葛亮的粉丝呢?

Tadaaaa here is the legendary Zhuge Liang's miniature. lol
这位就是传说中的诸葛亮啦~ (公仔而已呵呵)

This restaurant has been in the town since last year and we have finally decided to give it a try. The place is located at Lebuh Tye Sin aka the fourth street by the locals, and it has been refurbished thus looking anew and comfy inside.
其实这家火锅店去年已经开张了,不过上个星期我们终于有时间去试试。
这坐落在四条路的餐厅看起来很新而且也很干净。




We have chosen the Tugoliang Set D for 4 to 6 pax (RM125) which includes big prawns, scallops, squids, fish fillet, dumplings, egg, duck & pork slices, vegetables, clams, fish balls and 4 types of staple food (to choose from beehoon, glass noodle, rice, 
instant noodle, udon or spinach pan mee)
我们选择了猪锅亮Set D (四至六人份) 里头有大虾,扇贝,饺子,墨鱼,鸭肉和猪肉片等等,
以及可以选四种面或饭。(米粉,冬粉,公仔面,乌冬,菠菜板面)

As for the soup base, every soup is priced differently and we have selected red spicy 'Mala' soup (medium spicy) and herbal soup. 
而汤头是另外点的,我们点了中辣的麻辣汤和药材汤。

As soon as the soup was served, we could smell the strong spices (with mutton?) coming from the 'Mala' hotpot. I'm not sure what makes up the heart of the Mala hotpot but the soup is satisfyingly hot and fiery, numbing my tongue and lips. The herbal soup tastes equally fine.
汤头一到我们就闻到麻辣味儿啦~ 还有点羊味(麻辣锅是用羊肉熬煮的吗?)他们的麻辣锅味道不错,我的舌头嘴唇当晚就麻痹了。药材汤也不错喝,不过略显普通。



As you can see, the seafood were meticulously arranged and honestly that was an abundant portion of 5 of us in which I feel it would be just nice for 6 people.
其实那些海鲜真的很多很多,我们五人吃到很饱,可能六个人吃刚刚好。




Do you believe this is actually another half of the seafood after we have finished scrapping the top portion into the soup? (that's a lottttttt)
我们把一半的食材放进锅里,还有一半。。哇很多叻。。 


Itadakimasu 开动啦~

Some people prefer steamboat with plenty of sauces (though I don't) and fret not, these sauces are available such as spicy chilli sauce, garlic sauce, sesame sauce etc.
有些人喜欢搭配很多酱料,这里有很多种类如超辣酱,芝麻酱,蒜酱等。

The dining area is pretty spacious and fully air-conditioned and if 
you wish sitting outside, al-fresco dining is also available. 
餐厅地方宽阔,里头有冷气很舒服。不过你也可以选择坐外头。
