The atmosphere is definitely old school with tons of pictures of celebrities up on the walls coming up the stairs to the restaurant. Get there before the dinner rush or you will be waiting a while to get a table! There are English menus if you ask your server. Their broth is really good - I'm told it's boiled up to about 5hrs every day! The service is okay. They get really busy so you might have to track them down to get served. Their signature dishes are: - diced beef - osmanthus mussels (soooo good!) - goose sausage (but we didn't try this) Every table I saw had chicken testicles, so we went along and ordered a plate. It was different; chewy. I'm glad I tried it, but I don't think I'll order it again. There are two or three private rooms located toward the back of the restaurant. There is a 10% service charge, so no need to tip!

SHABU SHABU Time! ALL YOU CAN EAT!! IN 90 MINUTES??? WTF?!?!…read more Coming from the land of food wasting (the US), a time limit for an all you can eat buffet is just painful to endure. However, this is HK and I will play by its rules. This is a fairly new restaurant inside Discovery Park and soon became one of my favorite in here. The meats are fresh, with lots of soup base to choose from. Along with the all you can eat meats items, it also comes with veggies, tofu, rice, and Haagen-Dazs ice cream which is a bigger seller in HK. For lunch on weekdays, it offers a cheaper meal for 60 minutes. I believe it is $98. For dinner, the normal price is $148 for 90 minutes. Drinks are not included, but you can add that option for additional charges. If you want a split pot for 2 soup bases, it's also an extra $10. Service is not bad, it takes about 5 minutes for them to bring the soup and the meat when your time starts. However, you time starts the minute you walk in so you better decide what you want to order before sitting down. My tip of the day, bring a stop watch, because they will ask you to leave when your time is up even if you are still eating. Yup.

Excellent service and fantastic food…read more For soup bases, we tried the tomato soup and spicy hotpot soup. For sauce, we paid for the make-you-own-sauce station and I made a mixture with garlic, XO sauce, and soy sauce. You can't go wrong with adding whatever you like into a sauce! For meats and veggies, we tried several types of beef, mutton, fish balls, fish, beancurd, and Chinese veggies. You can order whatever you want on their tablet. We also got the all-you-can-drink tea option with their delicious lemon tea. The waitress was extremely attentive and even gave us a free fried man tou dessert that came with condensed milk for dipping. The mantous had a crispy exterior and soft, warm interior. I couldn't help but indulge. Because we opted for the better quality meats, our total was about $100 USD. A more expensive meal but extremely satisfying and it was money wellspent.

Excellent service!…read more The hand-pulled noodles were the reason why we came to this restaurant; and it did not disappoint! We had a table-side pull of the noodles and it was very entertaining. There is a variety of different cuts/quality of meats that vary in price; so it is easy to stick to your price point if you want. The only thing that would be a bit more expensive; is that if you wanted extra sauces or certain sides; they do charge you per person for those things. I found that with the tomato soup base; there was no need for any extra sauces though. The soup base was flavourful and matched well with all the ingredients. It is important to note that this place is not AYCE; but a-la-carte ordering. We were still quite full nonetheless. All in all; was a great experience and the service is really above and beyond.

Unlike standard hot pot which starts with a pot of broth, here you first received a sizzling, spicy chicken pot. The waitress asked us to wait a few minutes before lifting the lid, so the chicken gets to caramelized and the aroma to intensify. After you finish the chicken, they pour some broth into the almost empty pot to deglaze it, and viola, a flavorful broth is ready for you to begin your hot pot experience. This place offers a lot of varieties of ingredients for dipping into the pot, as well as a variety of drinks. Even though the place is really busy, the staff is pretty nice. The walls are decorated with cute cartoons and even the placemats too has a cartoon showing you how to properly enjoy your chicken hot pot.

You eat the chicken first and then your server adds in the chicken stock so you can hot pot with stock that is now flavored with leftover chicken juices and yummy sichuan spices. Honestly, this should be the only way we should hot pot from now on. But then again, Hong Kong is already on top of it. I'm American. It hasn't reached our shores yet, but it damn well should. On a Monday night (8PM), the wait was an hour long for our party of five. We ordered more food than we can handle, including a whole chicken, and paid HKD $200 (USD $27) each. Notably delicious foods included the chicken (duh), yin yang cuttlefish paste (very bouncy texture), and herng lings (deep fried soybean paper rolls that you dip into the soup for a second). This location is a little weird in a small street, but if you have Google Maps, you should have no problem finding it. Also, this is a chain so you can find one closer to you. P.S. Dishes are half off after 10PM. Ask your server for clarification.

It's located at the Chuang's London Plaza, but I can't remember what floor. We ordered two broths, the satay and tomato. They were both savory without being spicy. The ingredients that we chose and that they brought out were extremely fresh. I kept ordering the head on fresh shrimp. The two other items I enjoyed were the fishcake with cheese filling and fishcake with tobiko filling. They had a variety of canned drinks that you could help yourself to. OMG, they had this one drink called Milkis. It was a milk soda and I drank around five cans. I've never tasted soda so good in my life. I wish they had it here. The only thing that I didn't like about this place was their dipping sauces. Hot pot places tend to have a plethora of dipping sauces. This place only had two: peanut butter and satay. I mixed the two and it was kind of gross.

The fresh, quality ingredients is the draw here. Its placement says there's no MGS, and they make dumplings in house. There is a wide variety of ingredients to choose from, it's hard not to order too much. They are famous for their fresh, relatively thick cut slices of beef. My only complain is that they don't offer a lot of options for sauce mixing. Just fried garlic, scallions, chili pepper and soy sauce. A bit disappointing for someone who enjoys mixing their own sauce for hot pot.

I think off season, they have another hot pot that is also very good. But make reservations for seating and the hot pot. It was $350 HKD when I was there last year for just the pot. Then you order the seafood at the little market that is inside the restaurant. They make it like you are sitting outside. The atmosphere is really cool. Food was so fresh. Loved everything about it.

One of my chopsticks was dropped on the floor and before I had a chance to look down the floor, I already got a new one. They also offer rounds of hot towels and a wipe to wipe your glasses in case the steam gets in the way. Besides the impeccable service, the food was also very fresh. Half portion was recommended so we could get a variety of food. My aunty ordered a toad (??) for me to try. Super tasty like chicken. You can choose up to 4 broth ranges from water to super spicy. The restaurant gets very crowded and busy and they do not take reservations. For dinner, we arrived at 530pm and there was no wait. The restaurant environment is very lively. Serving robots moving around, face-change performers, dancing noodles, happy birthday song singing... My eyes were very busy! If you end up having to wait for a table, they serve you fruits and tea while you wait. I even saw a manicure station there! Some locations open 24 hours a day so give it a try when you are in town.
