Moving on to the main event of your meal, don’t forget to try their Signature Spicy Hotpot + Port Tripe and Chicken Soup Hotpot. This combination of two hotpot choices is one of the most recommended hotpots they have.
On the left is a boiling broth infused with a lot of chili peppers giving it a distinctively spicy and numbing taste, while the Port Tripe and Chicken Soup Hotpot on the right is the perfect soup to balance out the amount of spiciness.
Of course, a hotpot meal would not be complete without fresh pork, meat, and seafood sticks to cook in your hotpot. Their Squid Balls is also a great choice to include in the hotpot.
