I visited this place for lunch and really enjoyed the experience. You get to pick your own ingredients, which are then weighed and priced, and after that, you choose the base for your hotpot. The food was delicious and properly cooked. The service was good, and the atmosphere was pleasant. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place. It's a great option if you're looking for an individual hotpot.

Food is always delicious and there’s lots of choice. Can pay using card or WeChat. The service is always very polite as I’m a foreigner (laowai) and they help with options too. The restaurant plays Chinese music which creates a really good atmosphere. It can get busy but everyone is very friendly. If you like spice this is definitely the place for you. The rice is good and for just £2 you can have unlimited refills.

This Chinese noodle shop is a hidden gem for anyone craving a bold, spicy kick. Their mala noodle is loaded with flavor, fragrant with Sichuan taste, You can customize your spice level, which is a nice touch whether you're a spice fiend or just dipping your toes into the world of mala. The space is clean and casual, great for a quick solo meal or a laid-back hangout. Prices are fair, service is quick, and the flavor is absolutely worth it.

A fantastic Chinese-style individual hot pot with three types of soup bases to choose from. You can customize the ingredients to your liking. For those who want a bit of spice but can’t handle too much heat, try the mushroom flavor with a little spice —it tastes amazing!

Hygienic, fresh, but very very hot and spicy. Three heat level options given (mild, medium and hot), but even the mild option is really spicy (I am Indian, and I still find it spicy). But I love it!! Just a suggestion: Add additional 3 options of spice heat levels for European crowd, lower than what you currently call "mild" heat

No problem, sir. We have two other soup bases that are almost not spicy at all: Tom Yum Tomato and Mushroom Soup. If you still want to try the spicy flavor but can’t handle much spice, you can request a level even milder than “mild.” Our staff can also customize the taste to your preference.
