Hotpot and BBQ appliances to make you want to replace the ones at home
Here’s a list of steamboat, grill and BBQ appliances and soup bases for easy CNY hosting.
Throw a stone in any direction in Singapore, and it's highly likely you'll hit someone who likes to eat hotpot, grilled meats or a combination of both. Think I'm exaggerating? Think about all the hotpot restaurants thriving in Singapore, and the perpetual queue you can find in more popular names such as Hai Di Lao, Beauty in the Pot, Suki-Ya, Shabu Sai, Shi Li Fang, Little Sheep, Imperial Treasure and more. I have not even started listing the popular brand for Japanese yakiniku, Thai mookata, and Korean's KBBQ. So yes, let's just embrace our reputation as a nation of hotpot and international grilled-meat-loving aficionados.
Is it any surprise really, that a hotpot, grill plate or a combination of both are quintessential household items? If you're thinking of hosting hotpot parties at home this CNY and beyond, here’s a list of new steamboats, smokeless grills and BBQ appliances we're lusting after.
