I'm not a huge hot pot fan and as a foreigner I find them, most of the time quite tasteless, which isn't the case for this place. They use chicken broth which give more taste than what seems to be just plain water in other cheap places. Yes that place isn't cheap, but the quality, the service and the food are great, so far all the cheaper places I visited tasted bland. You will have to make reservation, because (almost) like every good place, it's crowded.
