It's getting hot here in Vegas, today was 90 degrees already!
I'm definitely not ready for summer yet.
What I enjoy mostly about the winter, it's a Chinese tradition, called Hot Pot.
Other Asian cultures have hot-pot like dishes, like Japan's Shabu Shabu, Korean's Casseroles, or similar to Swiss Fondue. To me, the difference mostly is the broth. The broth is filled with herbs like star anise, peppercorns, dried dates, red chili peppers, etc.
Hot Pot is staple for winter and because it's usually meant to be shared it brings the whole family together. But unfortunately, most Hot Pot restaurants (often all-you-can eat) in Vegas are not very sanitary as the raw ingredients were laid out on ice buffet-style. So I stopped going out for Hot Pot, until I stumbled cross this little Chinese restaurant inside the Gold Coast, called Noodle Exchange.
If you are not familiar with the casino, it's home to one of the best dim-sum restaurants in Vegas, called Ping Pang Pong (they also have really delicious traditional dishes offered). So it was not a surprise they will open another Chinese restaurant in here that offers great Chinese food.
Going on to the food, they offer Lamb, Beef and Seafood dishes for the hot pot. I believe they are $15.95 each. And it comes out in a personal pot and your own plate of thinly slice meat with assorted vegetables and glass noodles.
What you do is, cook your plate of food according to your own pace and liking. Afterwards you can drink the broth to taste all the meat and vegetable flavors, it's really tasty. Definitely warms up your stomach in a cold winter night.
Give it a try next winter!
