I love Chinese hot pot, especially when the weather is cold. I northern Chinese friends love hot pot at all times and any weather.

Hot pot is best shared with a larger group. Here you can order spicy soup, savoury soup or half and half. Then you order meat, vegetables etc and throw them in the pot to cook and eat.

It is a fun night out for a group, unless you bring some fussy eaters.

I like the half half pots, the pots are really big so they can take up a lot of food. The price is high though, you can get more value out of an All You Can Eat hot pot elsewhere. But this place is one of the few places where you can share big pots with everyone instead of mini "one serve" pots.

Approximate cost: $20
