I thought I won't be having hotpot again this year however my friend and I somehow had decided to stop by a hotpot restaurant for dinner.This restaurant is a famous Taiwan chain store but somewhat running in Japanese-Chinese style.
When we went there for dinner, tt was a semi-buffet which you get to choose your own one-pot soup base, a plate of meat, and an optional alcoholic drink including Asahi, Gold Medal Taiwan beer, Blue Girl, or Taiwanese Apple Soda.
There is also unlimited vegetables, assorted meat balls, fish balls, etc. drinks, bottled soft drinks, and a few different kinds of noodles including instant noodles, ramen, udon, and clear noodles.There were even bottled cream soda, and coke zero for you to choose. We were like happy babies.
I have ordered the new kumquat chicken soup and my friend had ordered the Japanese long leg crab in Tom Yum Goong soup.Kumquat chicken soup ($338)
When I took the first sip, it was very sour and savory at the same time. It was a very appetising soup base that is very suitable for girls because of its high collagen content.
It was quite valuable since there was at least half a chicken in the small pot. The chicken meat was considerably tender although it was still frozen.
Long Leg Crab in Tom Yum Goong Soup ($398)While for the Tom Yum soup base, it was very savory with mild hot and mild herbs flavours. Two long legs were given along with the soup. The taste was a lot lighter than the chicken soup yet with a light seafood touch to it.
The crab meat was relatively soft and the size was small which was perfect for the size of the pot.
When ordering a set meal for two, complimentary oysters and scallops would be given. The oysters were quite generous in size although the taste was a bit bland. It's important to not to overcook them otherwise they would become really tough to chew.
Up: US Boneless Short Rib Rolls (Angus Grade) - I would prefer the short rib rolls to the lamb rolls. Each roll was very thinly sliced and frozen prior. It was soft in texture yet not too strong beefy. Down: New Zealand Lamb Rolls - it was a bit fattier than the beef rolls. Surprisingly lamb rolls did not taste as gamey as the beef rolls, therefore I found the beef rolls more flavourful overall.
Since I haven't had vegetables for a very long time. I mainly focused on all the assorted veggies including lotus roots, winter melons, mushrooms, tofu, fungus, corns, etc. We particularly liked the pumpkins and the purple sweet potatoes. It was best to cook it very thoroughly until they absorbed all the soup.
Since I had no more room for starchy balls, my friend had tried some traditional and modern balls. I have only tried fish tofu and melted cheese balls and I think we would have stood out the most.
To finish off the meal, complimentary small size Haagen-Dazs in various flavours would be provided before you go but we were too full to have it so we decided to skip it.
