Definitely the dipping sauce and all the unique ingredients I got to try! And the price was amazing!
How spicy was the hotpot?
It was REALLY spicy! The Sichuan peppercorns gave my mouth a serious buzz. But the mushroom dipping sauce helped cool things down a bit.
What's your favorite ingredient you tried?
The Donggua, or Chinese winter melon, was incredible! It melted in my mouth and had this amazing jelly-like texture.
