Lok Lok is essentially a variant of the steamboat or hotpot meal, where skewered food is dipped into a boiling pot of water to be cooked. These skewered sticks of vegetables, meat and seafood are then dipped into various sauces that are provided which can enhance your eating experiences significantly.

The most common sauce comes in the Satay sauce dip, along with other variants such as Tom Yam, Penang Prawn Soup or even the Mala Soup Base.

Since Lok Lok are not commonly found in Singapore, many Singaporeans would cross the borders into the Johor Bahru to get their hands on this coveted Malaysian dish.
