Dragon Boat Festival Gathering: Enjoy Taiwanese-Style Stir-Fried Stone Pot Hotpot

Dragon Boat Festival isn't just about rice dumplings! If you're looking for something new, why not gather your family and friends for a steaming hot stone pot hotpot meal? "Xiao Ma Zi Stone Pot Hotpot," a newly opened restaurant, is a great choice! This place offers an à la carte menu instead of all-you-can-eat, but every dish is generously portioned, making it perfect for small festive gatherings and a relaxed hotpot experience. 🧄 Signature Broth The stir-frying process is the soul of the dish! Onions and garlic are stir-fried to release their aroma before adding the broth, creating a rich Taiwanese flavor. The broth starts off light and refreshing, but as vegetables, meats, and seafood are added, it becomes increasingly flavorful, ensuring you won't tire of it even by the end. 🥬 Fresh Vegetables The hotpot ingredients are quite good, though the white radish tends to be a bit hard. It's recommended to cut it into smaller pieces to ensure it cooks through properly. 🍖 Meat Selection Tips Opt for the stir-fried pork shoulder; its aroma and texture are excellent. Some additional meat orders later on were slightly fragmented and less tender, so be mindful when ordering. 🍓 Unlimited Sauce Bar and Desserts This is a crowd favorite! The sauce selection is extensive, and there's unlimited access to fruits and aiyu jelly. Plus, you get a cup of Häagen-Dazs ice cream after your meal, making your Dragon Boat Festival hotpot experience sweet and festive! 🪑 Spacious and Comfortable Environment Afternoon visits are less crowded, with a clean and bright space that's perfect for family meals or friend gatherings. Especially during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, this is a great spot to sit down, chat, and enjoy a meal. 📌 Tips - Minimum spend per person: $100 - Dining time is not rushed, but avoid peak hours (especially on holidays). - Check the cleanliness of shared plates before use. - It's recommended to make reservations in advance during holidays. 📍 Xiao Ma Zi Stone Pot Hotpot – Ximen Main Store Address: No. 135, Chengdu Road, Wanhua District, Taipei City
