Hot pot is a delicious, bubbling cauldron of choose-your-own adventure soup often shared with friends or family on the Lunar New Year — and one dedicated fan is on a quest to eat it as often as possible.
Make your contribution now and help Gothamist thrive in 2023.Tang Yousheng , known among friends as Yoshi, is a hot pot obsessive. He usually eats it weekly, and just days ahead of the Lunar New Year, he was feeling deprived.Luckily, he and his self-described hot pot partner in crime, Hu Ting , found their fix at, a Sichuan-style joint in Flushing. It’s on the second floor of Tangram: a newish, kind of fancy mall filled with clothing stores and Chinese treats.
Hot pot is essentially a large vessel of steaming, constantly simmering broth that cooks in the center of the dining table. It's eaten communally.The fragrant steam from the hot pot has a way of permeating everything in the room. Tang and Hu prepare by shedding their coats and placing them in a plastic bin thoughtfully provided under the table.“That’s why you usually wear pretty casual when you eat hot pot,” Hu added, dressed in a cherry-red track suit.
Soon, a server who gives his name as Tomato appears to pour the broths into a yin-yang style pot. Others bring 20 or so plates of ingredients. They start with tripe, which Hu says is traditional for Sichuan-style hot pot.Fish tofu, spam, duck blood and vegetables await their turn in the broth.Hot pot can count New York Times critic Pete Wells among its fans. He says there are so many new restaurants, he’s having trouble keeping track.
