text: This place is fairly new and the decor shows how clean it is But it does not give me the HotPot vibe It was pretty empty when I went there for dinner and it is a Southeast Asian decor And I thought Hot Pot is mainly a Chinese thing nnI had the Ying Yang pot spicy and plain on the two sides of the pot The pork broth produces a strong flavor for the soup All the spices in the two sides made the base very strong and flavorful Actually it almost seemed a bit too heavy for my taste And the spicy side is very spicy at least to me For the additional sauces they had their own version of soy sauce and a peanut sauce It was a bit sweet for my taste so I did not use it that much But the meat and vegetables dipped in the broth was definitely enough for flavor The napa especially soaked up the spicy broth very nicely I like drinking the broth after the meal to relax my stomach but the strong broth is more like a starter soup instead of an ending soupnnWe had the shabu beef and lamb They were sliced thinly but the meat just did not seem as tender as I would like it And the portions were very very small The presentationdishes were very nice but the food quality just is not therennIf you like strong broth flavors then you can try this place But honestly as far as Hot Pot goes this place is very expensive with very little portions For the price we paid we could have gone to Texas Roadhouse for a prime rib The food provided is about average as well If you cannot travel to California and you have a craving Hot Pot then I guess this is the only alternative But it may be better and cheaper if you just set it up at home
