text: Hot pot ( oriental version of fondue) is more for social gathering than good food. You do that for fun less for taste.\n\nA group friend invited me for \"hot pot\", I told them about my prior experience at Asian Seafood; outdated seafood  soak in Luke warm water for several hours, It must have billion and Billions of bacteria. but they convince me, hot pot use fresh seafood -not outdated seafood, \n\nWell, I won't turn down a FREE meal - all expanse paid meal don't come that often.\n\n I will have to admit seafood seem fresh, uncooked; (hot pot only not the regular steam table), I will admit, I had a FUN time with my friends. So,,,how it it taste? well it is fresh, taste like seafood soak in spicy broth.
