Must-Try Hot Pot Recommendations in Kaohsiung ◉‿◉

This time, we ordered: Fresh Clams + Beef Platter Hot Pot for 360$

📌 Soup Base Flavor
This clear soup beef hot pot is simply paradise for hot pot lovers (like myself)! The broth is refreshing and completely non-greasy; each sip is sweet and flavorful.

📌 Beef Platter
The quality of the beef platter is quite good, with the slices cut fresh by the owner (using a machine). The meat is tender, and eating it cooked to medium-rare is just perfect. Each slice has a slight marbling, rich in flavor, and is not oily but deliciously fragrant.

📌 Fresh Clam Platter
The clams are large and tender; after cooking, they have a delightful chewiness, which is fantastic. The sweet flavor of the clams fully infuses the broth, and there's no sand or dirt, making it a great choice for seafood lovers 👍.

📌 Fresh Vegetable Platter
The fresh vegetable platter is also very rich, filled with lots of fresh cabbage and crown daisy, along with some enoki mushrooms and hot pot ingredients. This full plate of vegetables will definitely satisfy your appetite without worrying about not having enough ingredients. The vegetables retain the freshest and most tender texture after cooking, and paired with the clear soup base, each bite is refreshing and delicious.

📌 Dessert: Mung Bean Soup
This time's dessert is "Mung Bean Soup." The texture of the mung beans and bean paste is quite nice, with the bean paste cooked to a fine consistency, melting in your mouth, and the sweetness of the mung beans is ample. However, if you prefer a lighter taste, this dessert might be a bit overly sweet. I recommend it for those who enjoy sweet treats; for those like me who prefer lighter flavors, it might feel a bit too sweet.

📌 Overall Review
Whether it's the refreshing broth, the tender beef, or the meticulous attention to each ingredient, you can really feel the restaurant's dedication to delicious food. Not only is there care in the ingredients and broth, but the service is also incredibly thoughtful 🥹. The restaurant adopts a bar-style hot pot design, allowing every customer to enjoy the most detailed service. The owners personally adjust the cooking time, refill the broth, and add sauces, making the overall dining experience smoother and warmer. Especially in this era where every restaurant charges extra for eggs, they surprisingly provide an egg with each pot 🥚, which is just delightful. In terms of price, it's about 200-400 NTD per person, which is considered a high-quality and delicious hot pot that is very economical, suitable for family gatherings or small get-togethers with friends; you definitely won't be disappointed here! 👌
