GoroGoro; the sound that occurs when you are hungry or the sound of boiling soup? And that's just how the name came about, haha! Steamboat is one of my favorite for gatherings, loved ones and friends gathered around the pots, catching up seems so much more cozy and intimate.
Ambiance
GoroGoro took up a pretty huge space sprawled across the 4th level, seating are more compact to accommodate more headcounts I supposed, but not to the extent that it's within uncomfortable dining experience with strangers! :) Interior is bright and colorful, and I love the sofa seats that's perfect for larger family group outings.
Food
GoroGoro has 7 soups, so spoilt for choices please. Namely Bak Ku Teh, Collagen, Tomato, Mala, Tom Yum, Ginseng Chicken and Korean Seaweed (100% Vegetarian). Minusing off the 'cooking-smelliness / ordour' or the warm weather, because GoroGoro is situated indoors x aircon in Orchard Gateway @ Emerald!
The steamboat spread ranges from different types of vegetables, mushrooms, to beef, chicken, pork, prawns, and more seafood I don't recognize cause I don't take most seafood haha! Also fishballs, tofu, hotdogs, instant noodles, meesua etc! Who doesn't love a good spread though?
And their cooked food - I'd recommend trying their chicky wings and newly added - Salted Egg Popcorn Chicken Bites! Loves.
Service
Although it's buffet, more geared towards self-service style, but I was definitely impressed with how on-the-ball the staff were, very attentive, making regular rounds to clear your plates and to top up your soup, which makes a great dining experience. :)
Prices
Prices for lunch range from $14.90 onwards and dinner range from $24.90 onwards!
**For students and senior citizens, you can check their website for promotions.
Prices are very reasonable considering it's not ala carte buffet style, especially for lunch times! So do note that Food wastage charge is at $20 for every 100 grams of wasted food, in order to help GoroGoro keep their prices low, they'd love to seek the cooperation of diners not to waste food and take what you can eat only!
