Thas S. • January 28, 2018You will need a big appetite for all you can eat vegetables, noodles,fish balls, tofu and dessert. Beef, chicken and seafood are all a la carts. You better know how make your dipping sauce.

Max • August 16, 2015The real deal for spicy dry hot pot (麻辣香锅) and fish in chili (水煮鱼). The lamb skewers are also solid with a nice alternation of meat and fat.
