Back-to-School Happiness: Xiao Long Kan Student Discount 🧑‍🎓

Last night before tennis, I headed to Xiao Long Kan Hot Pot in Manhattan — and the moment I walked in, the aroma of bubbling broths and spices welcomed me like an old friend. 🍲✨ They offer an amazing variety of soup bases — the Three-Flavor Pot is a lifesaver for the indecisive! Sweet tomato, spicy Sichuan, and rich pork bone broth all in one. The ingredients were top-notch: crispy beef tripe, tender beef tongue, juicy short ribs, and springy goose intestine. The shrimp paste and handmade beef meatballs were packed with flavor, and veggies like enoki mushrooms, napa cabbage, and tofu skin soaked up the broths beautifully. I paired it with an iced watermelon juice 🍉 — so refreshing between spicy bites. The sauce bar was generous with options, and the complimentary sides like lychee and black rice porridge were lovely touches. Their house chili oil is a game-changer — even if you’re spice-sensitive, a quick dip makes everything just right. And yes — they serve nostalgic free ice cream 🍦 at the end! The whole experience was warm, lively, and satisfying.
