4 munchies: Offering a wide variety of more premium ingredients, my picks at MK Gold include the sliced kurobuta, mussels, shiitake mushroom, shrimp wanton, and green noodles.
Here's how you eat like a local at MK:
1. Throw all the vegetables and mushrooms into the pot.
2. Ask for the lid and let it simmer for about 5 mins.
3. Beat 2 eggs and pour them into the soup.
4. Instead of cooking the spinach noodles with fried garlic garnishing, eat them al dente straight off the serving plate.
5. When you're almost done with the steamboat, ask for some rice and the staff would help you cook it with the remaining ingredients until it soaks up all the flavourful broth and turns into a congee-like dish.
I thought the chilli dipping sauce here tasted better and a little sweeter compared to the MK in Singapore. There are only two MK Gold outlets that serve the à la carte menu in Thailand – Siam Paragon in Bangkok and the other in Phuket.
Actually this place is better for their dimsum and I heard roast duck (which I don't eat). The soup base is so- so. Prefer our local varieties.
