Chen YanJing Hot Pot (YuZhou XinDou)

The restaurant is on the second floor and quite spacious, with window seats available, which was quite pleasant. It wasn't particularly crowded. The portions were generous, the seasonings were comprehensive, and the broth was quite fragrant. The tripe was the best, very crispy, tender, and refreshing.

I passed by this place a while ago and saw it was incredibly crowded. I wasn't sure what to eat, so I chose this place. There was still a line at 10 PM, which is pretty impressive. I chose the red soup, which came in a four-square griddle. It was okay, with a moderate level of spiciness. The food was fresh, but not particularly distinctive; it was basically just a classic hot pot. To be honest, I thought it was just average. It wasn't amazing, and not worth the trip. It was a bit disappointing, but it wasn't terrible.
