| - My family and I dined at Chine Hot Pot and Noodles. It was packed Sunday night. Each of us got our own personalized hot pot with our own choice of broths - Legendary Spicy Broth, Black Chicken Broth, Variety Mushroom Broth, and Pork & Chicken Broth.
I ordered the Black Chicken Broth which consisted of black Chicken, ginger and gojiberries.
The order form was rather confusing. Since this is an all you can eat style hot pot restaurant for a set price, they allows you to order up to three rounds of
meat, vegetables, and starches, one round at a time.
For meats, we ordered the following:
-Two Orders of Special Beef Slice
-Two Orders of Superior Beef Slice
-One Order of Chicken
-One Order of Fish Fillet
-One Order of Squid Tenacle
-One Order of Beef Ball
-One Order of Lobster Ball
-One Order Fish Ball
For vegetables, we ordered the following:
-Fresh Tofu
-Spinach
-Watercress
-Cabbage
-Sweet Corn
-Enoki Mushrooms
-Shiitake Mushroom
For starches, we ordered the following:
-Udon Noodle
-Ramen Noodle
-Rice Vermicelli
-Chicken and Cabbage Dumplings
-Pork Wontons
After placing our order, we went to the condiments bar to make our own sauces. My sauce consisted of
Soy Sauce, Vinegar, Mashed Garlic, Green Onion, and Parsley.
Luckily, we didn't have leftovers - they would have charged 20% of the final bill. It was just enough food for four hungry mouths.
We were surprised that they didn't have a liquor license but were satisfied with soft drinks - Ginger Ale and Nestea.
We ended our meal with sweets - an order of Crispy Taro Rolls and an order of Crispy Bread, which came with a Creamy Coconut Paste. The Crispy Taro Roll consisted of fried dough stuffed with mashed taro. The taro was fragrant. The Crispy Bread reminded me of a deep fried mantou. Both were delicious choices!
