Quite a packed place and needed to wait a bit. The hot pot base has a choice of five soups (all supposedly without MSG) -- of which you can have up to two in a bowl (note: single chamber bowls are also available). A tray of condiments is also provided. There are about eight in total. About 4 sauces (eg. hot chilli oil, fermented tofu, satay) and 4 spices (leeks, garlic, brown granular stuff, sliced peppers). A small bowl is initially filled with soy sauce. A variety of raw food trays were ordere

The mushrooms were quite nice, and the tofu curd wraps also went quite well. Most of the meat was a bit fatty for my taste. So, that really limited what I was keen to try. But, everything went well with the base. By the end of the meal, I was getting a bit of a buzz -- and suspect that the meat balls (fish, chicken, etc). were MSG impregnated. (I did not have any; but when cooking them, an exchange with the soup is inevitable).
The almond 'cloud' was not as thick as it could have been, and was a bit starchy. But still of reasonable quality (given the price of <$10)
The environment was a typically LOUD hotpot eatery. Very local ambiance.
题外话/补充资料：
Some confusion over the beer noted on our slip. An extra $8 is nothing to make a big fuss over, though.
Hygene was reduced as some black blob arrived with our satay soup part. It was quickly removed by the waitress --but was suspiciously NOT like a spice!!!
Although not part of the dining experience, when going to use the washroom, there was a crew working on cleaning the ventilation grills (or something of the sort). Even though cleaning above prepared (set) tables, there was nothing to protect the dishes from any 'additional flavouring' from the cleaning. Bit of a disappointment.
