Smelly Pot

Christmas day, you know what's open?  A lot of stuff in Chinatown.
 I said a lot because not everything was open.  Our first and second choice weren't open, so we landed on 3rd choice.
 This is Taiwanese Hot Pot and they can be included with stinky tofu, which is a Taiwanese specialty.
 Got a milk tea for drink.
Got fried calamari as an appetizer.  Nice and crispy.
 Upper left corer is another appetizer, it is popcorn chicken.  It looked a tad dark, but it tastes good.

Since we were sharing the hot pot, which are meant for individual use, they asked us to add a protein for $3.95 more, which we picked beef all rolled up.  Turns out, there are 4 slices per roll, so that's alot of beef on top of all the stuff we got.  And our hot pot comes with either rice or vermicelli.
 We got the Curry Fish Ball Hot Pot - that comes with fried fish ball, fish cake, iced tofu, enoki mushroom, cabbage, fish cakes, crab sticks, sliced pork.  Of course, the aforementioned sliced beef.

This is really meant for one person, and as you can see 2 people sharing it is just fine.  Had our eyes were bigger than our stomach, we can upgrade to a bigger size, but since from experience, one pot is enough, we chose wisely this time.  Not to mention, you can ask them to add soup, or if you feel like you didn't get enough you can ask for second, which is essentially like ordering another set. I know sometimes they run specials, so you have to time them right.  Not too bad, wouldn't mind coming back.
