| - Decided to give this place a try because we were very hungry and hot pot sounded like a great option. This is the first place I've ever been to with individually portioned hot pot, which was kind of nice, especially if you and your partner have very different food preferences.
The atmosphere was nice, we sat at a wooden bench near the windows. The staff were all incredibly friendly, and very helpful to us newbies in explaining how things work. INCREDIBLY nice and attentive staff.
We ordered boba milk tea, which was delicious (I hadn't had milk tea in over a year and it definitely hit the spot), though it would have been nice if they had different milk tea flavor options. They had about 15 beverage/tea flavors, but only one milk tea option.
Our hot pots came out and we were informed that the heat could be turned off at any point if it got too hot. About 10 minutes in, I was nearly sweating because the heat being kicked out of that small metal cup, so I requested mine be shut off. I regretted that decision two minutes later when my food got very cold very quickly, but I was almost done anyway so it wasn't that big of a deal. Definitely do NOT get your fire extinguished unless you're done eating, unless you like cold soup....The food itself wasn't bad. A great variety of vegetable and meat/seafood in each of the two hot pots we tried.
I'd come back to this place if it was closer to my house but sadly I live on the far East side, so this trip was a bit much for us.
