My AYCE lunch hot pot experience was underwhelming. It's the feeling one gets when expecting a guy to open the car door for you (if you're into that) and then he fails to do so.
So the deal breaker here was that ALL the meat selection here were served frozen rock solid. Just looking at it makes me lose my appetite..
The variety is decent - sauces and everything except for meat is self serve. The DIY soda pop section was a dripping mess with spills everywhere and all things were sticky to the touch.
Service was attentive - they offered us coat check which was funny considering this is a hot pot restaurant in the heart of Chinatown.
We came here for lunch on a Friday and were charged $2 extra since it's a "weekend". I felt a bit ripped off because we clearly didn't have enough time during work lunch break to get the most of this price.
They don't deserve a one-star but Ive certainly been to better quality hot pot restaurants than this, so won't be coming back here anytime soon!
