Food Sharing #48 - Dinner at Hotpot City @ Bankstown, Australia

Hi Everyone,

As it is winter in Australia, the only thing you think about when you are having a meal is to find something warm. Over the weekend, I met up with my old colleagues and wanted to try out a hot pot restaurant called Hotpot City. It is an all you can eat buffet and each person will be given an individual cooking pot which for us was perfect. Traditionally with hotpot, everyone cooks their food in one pot with one soup base and dig in but as time changes, many restaurants have changed these to individual pots for hygiene purposes and people can choose their own soup base.

Lets check out the menu. The menu was very simple because it is an all you can eat restaurant. What you need to choose from the menu is which soup base you want.

I chose the mushroom soup base. My other friends chose chicken and one friend wanted to try the extra spicy one. Looks hot!

So while we were waiting for them to prepare the soup base, we went to check out the sauce station. There were at least 20 types of sauces and ingredients to mix and match. They provided a chart to suggest some combinations you can use for an “epic” sauce

Lets check out the food on offer. There were a lot of traditional hotpot ingredients like different types of fish balls, beef, seafood, mushrooms, vegetables … the list goes on.

They ask people to not waste food or you will be charged a fee

Here’s my first plate of food. Fresh and lots of variety

This restaurant doesn’t have a lot of table service so you can get water from the water station.

On a Saturday night, the place was packed. There was also a line for tables but luckily our friend booked for us. The cost of an adult was $35 for 90 minutes which I thought was not long enough. Will I go back again? Probably not soon as it is a 45 minutes drive from my house plus for $35 per adult, I can get a lot of food and eat comfortably at home without the thought of rushing to eat everything by 90 minutes.

oh yeah hot pot is just perfect for a cold winter day

The vibrant pics in your food posts really bring the restaurant to life @travelgirl

I've never had this type of hotpot Japaneses food but then I have only been to a Japanese restaurant once in my life... I know that is awful eh. It all looks delirious :-)

actually this is a Chinese restaurant but the Japanese do them as well. I think many Asian countries have something similar. You don't like Japanese food? I love Japanese food i can eat it every day, 3 times a day haha

Cool, I shall look out for similar style when I hopefully set off travelling early next year.

I do like Japanese food for sure. What I meant when I said awful, is that it was awful that I had only been to a Japanese restaurant once in my life lol. I thoroughly enjoyed the food :-)

You make me hungry, look really good, I want to try it
