This place is definitely a favorite since my student days, and I still have a good impression of it; my family loves it too. I haven't been there for a while, as I've tried several hot pot places, but suddenly trying the stone pot made me feel it's really tasty—just simple flavors.

The QR code ordering lets you choose whether you want more meat or vegetables, which is very thoughtful. The pork on that day was normal quality but tasty, and the clams were okay with some freshness. The other add-ons were also not bad, and I found the mountain amaranth quite special. There's also the must-try winter melon lemonade, which many people come for; I'm indifferent to it.

Overall, if there weren’t that many people, I would definitely go more often. Nowadays, almost every place has a long wait. Considering the quality, the price is quite good! I recommend getting an online number via LINE early.

Braces Reviews: The restroom is located outside the restaurant and you have to walk to the back.

This time I visited Shi Er Guo in the Zhonghe Jingping branch, located in the Dongsen Plaza food street, which opened last year. It's recommended to make an online reservation on holidays to save waiting time. Parking in the basement can be reimbursed, and drinks include lemon winter melon smoothie and black bean tea, which are self-serve. Ordering is done via QR Code.

The ordering process is to first choose the soup base (stone pot, shabu-shabu pot, spicy sister pot, or peeled chili pot +39 TWD), then select the vegetable platter (Aixia meat is a small platter, Aixia vegetables is a large platter), and finally choose the main and side dishes (white rice, vermicelli, or u-long noodles +3 TWD). After dining, you settle the bill at the counter.

This time I ordered:
Shabu-shabu pot (Aixia meat) 238 TWD
Selected pork, white rice, vegetable platter (Aixia meat), plus single order of squid paste 59 TWD, and mountain pepper 39 TWD, also add stone pot friend 39 TWD, New Zealand lamb 69 TWD.
Stone pot (Aixia vegetables) 238 TWD
Selected pork, white rice, vegetable platter (Aixia vegetables), plus clams 79 TWD.
Total amount: 761 TWD

I came for dinner around eight o'clock, and there were still a lot of people, indicating good business. Overall, it was quite standard; there’s nothing much to criticize at this price point, and the portions were quite filling.
