"Not the authenticity flavour of SiChuan hotpot, but I really enjoyed it. This is the hotpot for everyone, it may look red, hey don't worry, not spicy at all! All those ingredients are freshly prepared, they go along with the soup of the hotpot. Chinese BBQ is a highlight! I love everything we ordered, lamb, chicken, pork tripe.... yummy! Rarely to visit East Auckland, luckily I have some friends to show me where to eat."
