Great Food @ Pak John Steamboat & BBQ Buffet IOI City Mall

7:30 AM

Growing up, my parents have a monthly family gathering tradition where we would gather with close families and friends over BBQ, drinks and good gossips ( not in that order hahaha).
Now that I reside so far away from them, I am kinda missing those moments. Since I stay in an apartment, having a BBQ is certainly out of the question.

Cheap Steamboat in Putrajaya, IOI City Mall, Pak John Steamboat, Pak John Steamboat & BBQ Buffet, Premium Cuts, Rawlins Eats, Steamboat murah di Putrajaya, Butterfly Malaysia,

Then, upon a recommendation of The Butterfly Project, I decided to visit the recent branch of Pak John Steamboat and BBQ Buffet in IOI City Mall, Putrajaya. Thank God for the new branch, I don't have to travel far to have a great mini-reunion with my friends. We have had tried the ones in e-Curve but as time goes by since I am staying in Bangi and most of my friends are around, we decided not to travel that far and we were all kinda missing the good choice of food there. Now that the branch is nearer, there will be no more reason for not meeting up over great food!
Upon arrival, the staff greeted us warmly and showed us to the table. I immediately scanned the menu and the price. Hey hey! Not bad! with the vast choices, I would say the price is very reasonable (cheap I dare to say too). And this is a buffet restaurant so you can eat to your heart (and tummy) content!
FACT: Pak John Steamboat & BBQ has the halal certification issued by JAKIM

As I love to have vegetables at every meal, I was so relieved and happy that the vegetables are fresh and aplenty. The meat, poultry and seafood sections are the most popular sections but you do not have to fight everybody else to get your pick as the staff are super quick in replenishing the stock. Just queue like normal and civilized people as more stocks are coming right up in no time.

Going around the restaurant, I realised that they have also a fried section where they served fried rice, fried dumplings, fried crab and fish cakes and other sinfully delicious fried foods. Owh. Pak John Steamboat and BBQ Buffet in IOI City Mall, Putrajaya also serves steamed rice here too.

And now they have all those ramens and Japanese noodles that everyone has been talking about. So yes. One will be spoilt for choices here!

And please do not miss out on the Premium Cuts, available at the kitchen. Just head over to the kitchen counter and choose (or don't choose, just have them all like I did) from Premium Beef, Lamb, Abalone and Smoked Duck. And yes, you may come over again and again for the premium choices, not limited to once only.
Don't forget to get yourself some of the dim sums there too, while you are at the kitchen counter. Pssst. Take more of the salted egg pao - it is very yummy!

After all those BBQ-ing and steamboat-ing, you might want to have some hot drinks over small talks with your besties before calling it a day. In our case, it was time to go back because the restaurant was closing and tomorrow is a Monday. Hahaha.

You might want to book your seats before coming, so here are the important numbers to call.

I have tried Pak John before but at their Curve's outlet. So far, I think Pak John is the best place to eat steamboat and bbq. Their food selection are very nice and exclusive.
