Hot Yum Pot — Restaurant in District of Gungahlin

The service is easily the high point. A smile, kind words and a welcoming posture will make you feel good right away.

The food was served fast and fresh.

The Mapo Tofu Hong-Kong style, hot and hot, with pickled veggies, was a delight. The Bamboo, Black Fungus and cucumber salad kept us fresh. The BBQ Duck juicy and with crispy skin. But the Squid Tentacles was the pleasant surprise. Well seasoned and crispy-licking good.

The price is also a good surprise. After a 4 dish + rice for 3 person, we had more we could eat and end up less than 30 bucks per person.

We'll be back.

Edit: Less than a week and we were back. For Squid Tentacles, Scrambled Egg with Garlic Shoots and Shangtan Chicken Rice. All super nice and service even better as they seemed happy to see us back...

The roast duck and roast meat were much drier than before—I’m not sure if it’s just this time, but I was a bit disappointed. I hope the restaurant can return to its...
