Reviews
- Gray_17Such a cute little spot right by the entrance to Xinglong Park — super clean and cozy. I was actually planning to just grab a bowl of noodles and a couple lamb skewers, but they only had the lamb spine hotpot on the menu, so I figured why not DIY my own. Got the small pot and added hand-pulled noodles, tofu, and these long leafy greens I couldn't tell you the name of. The pot came out packed full of everything, and the broth was honestly really tasty — ate it all and felt so warm and comfy after. Oh, and there's a little cricket (I think?) just chirping away the whole time, which was adorable. Definitely a vibe.
