Located on the northeast corner of Spring Mountain and Decatur \"behind the Church's chicken. \n\nSmall, restaurant with a few booth tables lining the restaurant and a decent sized round table. \n\nSince cold weather is swinging around, decided to finally get to try this place. (If i recall correctly, this place opened before summer so it was kind of hot). \n\nStaff is friendly but their ability to speak english is kind of limited. The owner, Qi, was a student from UNLV. English is pretty good and very friendly. \n\nTheir style of hot pots are individual sized, pre-made by kitchen pots rather than the big pot in the middle of the table and people get and throw everything in. \n\nEach \"pot\" is priced around 10 - 12 dollars. Fairly reasonable. Pots range from beef, lamb, free-range chicken, etc. Other than the free-range chicken, there is also a spice level you get to choose from. 1 being normal to 5 being very spicy. My friend got a 2, and i tried it. Wasn't that spicy but i eat pretty spicy so dont take my word for the spice level. \n\nAside from the hot pot itself, there is a pretty decent sized list of extras you can add (meats, veggies, etc) as well as some skewers they make. The extra meat is around $3-4 dollars each. Veggies is mostly around $1 each. But the original hot pot comes with quite the amount. \n\nAside from the hot pot, whats hot pot without dipping sauces. They have a station in the back of various homemade sauces like peanut sauce, garlic sauce, bbq sauce, and chili sauce, as well as cut cilanto and onions i believe. What was surprising was their chili sauce was actually pretty spicy but good. \n\nThis visit, i had gotten their free-range chicken hot pot with no extra add on's. Meat amount wise, maybe a little less than you'd expect but its fresh, free-range chicken available locally. The chicken meat was indeed, good. Chewy and flavorful like you'd expect from a fresh, free-range chicken. The soup base they used was pretty good, using various chinese herbs and ingredients. Other than chicken, the hot pot also had tomatoes, lettuce, various mushrooms, black fungus (cloud ear fungus.. edible.. not a bad thing LOL), soy bean curd, etc. \n\nOverall the experience was pretty good. The staff keeps an eye on your water cup, so most of the time, you will have a full cup (+1 from me ! haha). Good place to eat at when the weather gets colder, and you want something to warm up in terms of food besides pho or a hot beverage. Good place to go ! best hot pot place in town so far !
