Taiwan Taipei Original Pot @ Central Richmond
Food: 4/5 Service: 3.5/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Price: Avg. $30/person
It was my very first visit and I was very excited to try the Taiwanese Hua Diao Chicken pot. Taiwan Taipei Original Pot is located in Venezia Place on Alexandra Road so beware it could be bloody hard to find a parking spot during weekend. I heard a lot of raving comments about Taiwan Taipei Original Pot and the interesting steps to enjoy the hot pot.
Unlike the typical Chinese hot pot places, the staff cooks for us and the toppings are cooked in a pot of sauce, not a full pot of soup base. In general there are three steps. First, eat the stirred-fry chicken in the pot. Second, add different toppings into the left over sauce and braise them. The toppings are such as beef slices, meat balls, noodles and etc. Lastly, add vegetables cook in soup.
