    Station 13 Xiao Tao Yuan is a Taiwan inspired steamboat restaurant. Well, it's more of a shabu-shabu place but with a large pot in the middle instead of an individual pot for all. Anyway, what is great about this place is the freshness of the pork slices, along with the variety of cuts available. Vegetables such as tofu and greens are fairly fresh, with the soup being another one of the attracting attributes. 

    Tips

    Go for their seafood!

    Things to expect

    A rather small dining place with air-con.

    Best with

    Cold soft drinks or tea.
