Good place for hot pot. But I think it is closed now.

Hot pots are not my favourite but compared to other hot pots, the hot pots here are good but expensive.

Went there to have dinner yesterday. What i love about this place is that each person can have their own individual pot and they are lots of soup base to choose from. I think the soup is quite nice as they did add some ingredients in the soup, not just MSG. I ordered the combo set, which has meat and seafood (sadly no veg). In my opinion, it will be more worth it if you ordered those items individual instead of a combo set. for the ala carte (eg sliced lamb, pork), the serving is quite huge and the price is quite reasonable. Environment is nice, but places are quite small. make sure you go early. There's room for improvement for the service, as they took some time to dish out those raw meats and seafood.

Sounds like a cool place to try out.

Had been waiting to go to this shop ever since it was opened but I've never got the chance until today. It was spectacular and up to my expectation. Hotpot with fish is my fav! You all should totally give it a go!

Approximate cost: $20

Best hot-pot and Chinese restaurant I've ever visited!!

I'll start with the setting. The building itself is very narrow and deep. There is only one large rectangular table inside which includes the "train" - a conveyor belt that transports the vegetable dishes in circles (and salt, pepper and tooth picks). I'd guess the table seats 30, maybe 40. Because of the rectangular setup you'll be directly facing strangers I guess this may put off a few people, but I found it was a friendly atmosphere. The building itself is quite old, but the toilets are cleaned, there are flowers and the soap smelt good. It is different to the other hotpot places I've tried in Adelaide because every guest is given a small hotpot to cook in (doesn't stop you from sharing).

The soup bases aren't straight out of a powder packet like other places. They have good quality pieces of vegetables and meat in it already to give it that great flavour that you eat.

This is also the first time in my life that I not only tried fish but enjoyed it (occasionally I've tasted it but never enjoyed it before) we ordered the fish fillet.

They also have the best quality beef I've ever had in a hot pot, nicer than I ever thought possible! When you cook it is so tender. It was called rib eye steak or similar. And while it was more expensive than the other meat dishes at $8.80 the serving is very, very generous and the quality unmatched!

I ate quail egg there for the first time, which was interesting too.

The white house wine wasn't too bad either.

The only negatives I can point out - is it may be slightly understaffed for how popular the place was and not ideal for a socialising in a group because of the rectangular table so you can only comfortably talk to one person on either side of you. Also, you have to use the same chop sticks to cook and eat. This will bother some westerners but not Chinese (I guess). I personally don't like that because you are touching raw meat and fish with the same chopsticks you are eating from. I just put the chopsticks in the boiling soup for a bit everytime I touched the meat to kill the germs.

I loved this place and will be back! Can't recommend this business more (but they really can't fit many more customers).

Approximate cost: $25.00
