湯棧 公益店
Taichung Nantun District - A well-known hot pot restaurant, open from 11:00 AM to 4:00 AM, with exquisite decor and spacious surroundings. They specialize in soju and sesame oil hot pot, and guests can enjoy unlimited winter melon tea!
📍 Chilled Black Pork Tender Shoulder Soju Hot Pot NT$458
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌘
The soju hot pot comes with chicken, and the accompanying pepper salt really enhances the flavor! The broth has a strong alcohol taste, which is fragrant but rather bitter, with ginseng and Chinese medicinal herbs simmered in it. The vegetable platter is rich, including three clams, though the vegetables are not abundant. However, the black sesame glutinous rice balls and cheese balls do not pair well with the soju hot pot.
The chilled black pork tender shoulder has a firm texture, fresh and not overly fatty; it is genuinely delicious, and I highly recommend it!
📍 Extra NT$18 for Fried Enoki Mushrooms
🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
The fried enoki mushrooms that come at an extra charge are said to be a signature dish by the staff, but I found them just okay, and they tend to be a bit greasy.

▶️ Overall evaluation
🔹 The dining environment is spacious and comfortable, quite impressive. Considering the quality at a price point under NT$500, it is quite good, which explains the high ratings. I particularly like that the winter melon tea is not too sweet! They also serve a sorbet after the meal.
