How to order, step by step
- Book online for one person, or queue at the door - it is busy at lunch and dinner
- Order one pot at the counter and choose your broth and meat
- Help yourself to the free bar: rice, vegetables, add-ins, sauces, drinks and ice cream
- You have about 90 minutes
- Pay when you leave - cards are accepted, and a 10% service charge applies
What to order solo: One pot with a Taiwanese broth, such as the chicken soup with pickled chili peppers (quite spicy) or the garlic clam chicken. Pots cost about NT$290-460 before the service charge; rice with chicken oil and the ice cream are included.
Best time to go alone: Weekday mid-afternoon or after 21:00. Lunch and dinner often have a queue, so book ahead.
