Help! I need somebody.

I had never been to a Hot Pot restaurant before, so I had no idea as to what I was letting myself in for. I ordered far too much food to add to the hot pot.
The hot pot was divided into 2 sections and I chose to have a tomato sauce in one and a mushroom base in the other. I then added 2 different sorts of mushrooms, 2 tofu options and several vegetables. The result was a MASSIVE meal! I hate wasting food, but I couldn't eat it all.
That said, the food was amazing and by the time I finished, I had a fantastic mushroom soup. The tomato soup was pretty good, too.
I really needed the server that I was ordering far too much food. That said I would certainly try this place again.

Pros: Wonderful food., An interesting experience.

Cons: I was totally out of my depth and needed advice.

Central hotpot with so much protein

Nice interior - very authentic and attentive service
Always double check with the broth so that the mushroom and tomato are vegan soup base
Also when refilling cause they come around refilling with water if vegan not broth
I love that you can choose two with outer and inner ring
We had mushroom and tomato
It was already filled with herbs and jujube
As mock meat/ protein there were so many options: bean curd, tofu (fresh and frozen), tofu skin and more
Lots of veggies as well as assorted baskets. we had the mushroom basket
Lotus was nice as well
Everything very fresh and you tick it off the menu list when ordering and keep on ordering if you’re still hungry
It’s expensive, but if you come with a group it’s good to try more and divide it
Recommended! Very flavourful and we were stuffed afterwards

Pros: Soy products , Staff, Amount of food

Cons: Expensive , FYI Always ask for vegan broth
