I have hot pot at least twice a week, whether it's chicken pot, fish pot or shabu shabu. Heard about Tong Pot in Sheung Wan who specializes in unique homemade dim sum like hot pot ingredients such as charsiu bun and Sichuan beef dumplings. And the reason why I picked this restaurant is actually their signature fish head soup with Chinese herbs.Nourishing soup with fragrant herbs and a huge fish head.

Nourishing soup with fragrant herbs and a huge fish head. The best parts were the gelatinous piece inside the head and the smooth fish jaw. Make sure to savor a bowl of the original soup before putting in other ingredients to boil.
What we ordered
🥢Chicken Red
🥢Beef Balls
🥢Xiaolongbao
🥢Crown Daisy
🥢Winter Melon
Smooth chicken red - one of the rarities in HK. Homemade meat balls and dim sums - one of a kind, finely seasoned. If you think veggies wouldn't be anything special, the quality here would surprise you. The crown daisy was super thin and delicate. Even we were so full we managed to finish the huge pot.
The shrimp sauce - similar to XO sauce, was flavorful and full of umami.
Draft suntory was available in gold and black versions. Chose the lighter pilsner and my mom picked her favorite lime soda. They also offer free corkage on spendings over $1000. Which bottle should I bring next time?
On top of the high quality food, I really enjoyed the cozy home-like atmosphere. Great hospitality too. Highly recommended!
