BUBBLING BROTHS<br />

Not to be outshone by the west, multi-tiered seafood steamer<br />

towers are the new “it” dish at many a hotpot restaurant across<br />

the city. Here’s where to get your seafood boil on:<br />

Steamer Ready<br />

The more seafood stacks the better<br />

at Asian fusion hotspot The Seafood<br />

Kitchen: you can layer up to nine steel<br />

containers filled with everything from<br />

scallops to abalone to geoduck and<br />

mantis shrimp. Place the layers carefully<br />

on the induction cooker and watch as<br />

your seafood is steamed and ready to<br />

eat in 10 minutes tops.<br />

18 Catchick St., Kennedy Town,<br />

2556-8555.<br />

Top of the Pot<br />

Seansin Seafood claims to be the<br />

“seafood hotpot experts” and for good<br />

reason: you’ll find lofty platters of all<br />

types of fresh seafood for reasonable<br />

prices, including jumbo prawns and<br />

lobsters with the tails intact—ready to<br />

dunk into the bubbling broth. Sick of<br />

seafood? Order the premium beef set,<br />

which also comes in a grand threetiered<br />

tower.<br />

1/F, Gofuku Tower, 62-64 Woosung<br />

St., Jordan, 2677-6488.<br />

Continental Cravings<br />

Even five-star hotel chains are getting<br />

in on the nine-layer seafood tower<br />

hotpot trend: Head to Harbourside<br />

at the InterCon Hong Kong for<br />

a seafood extravaganza featuring<br />

a rotating selection of steamed<br />

items—think abalone, shrimp, sea<br />

whelk and scallops—accompanied by<br />

a homemade seafood congee that’s<br />

warm and satisfying.<br />

18 Salisbury Rd., Tsim Sha Tsui,<br />

2313-2335.<br />

Seoul Fresh<br />

Korean hotpot is on the menu at<br />

Nine Steam Fresh, with a teetering<br />

five-story “Seoul Tower” ($398) of<br />

razor clams, scallops, periwinkles,<br />

littleneck clams, mud crab and more,<br />

accompanied by traditional Korean<br />

soups like ginseng chicken, with spicy<br />

kimchi on the side. Order additional<br />

king crab, wagyu beef and black pork<br />

to round out the epic feast.<br />
