Melinda, Adrienne and I
Rob and Mel had us out for 'steam boat' the other night. They also had a couple from Canada visiting them - Dale and June (not sure of there last name)
The meat - sweat and sour beef, chicken satay, garlic, ginger and chilli beef and coconut and kafa leaves. (Note the 'fishing net' sitting on the place mat)
So this bowl sits in the middle of the table and underneath it is a flame heating the beef broth which is in the bowl. So what you do is fill your 'fishing net' with your choice of marinated meat and veges and pop it into the broth and it cooks it. Once its cooked you then dump it onto your plate of rice and then fill your net up again with another choice of meat. At the end of the night you drink the broth and its SO tasty as all the marinades have mixed together etc. You wouldn't want to do this with any boring or anti social visitors as it's a very slow process and makes for a long night of talking and eating. It's fun though and I really enjoyed it, although Reon was very impatient and wanted to just dump everything in and eat, typical male! ;-)
