 which when cooked and dipped into these home made chilli sauces with the secret recipes handed down in the Tioh Family, tastes absolutely heavenly! 
For someone like me who hardly eats at Steamboat restaurants, this visit to Secret Garden really makes me want to eat healthy again !

The Kurobuta pork and Wagyu beef have this melt in your mouth feel when lightly cooked in the herbal soup. I like it that the home-made belachan chilli sauce at Secret Garden give it such a great kick. Had Secret Garden started to retail the chilli sauce I would be the first to buy it.
