"Da Long Yi is a Sichuan hot pot chain from the city of Chengdu that specializes in a three broth hot pot experience that includes a lighter, non-spicy mushroom broth, a non-spicy tomato broth, and its signature red hot broth. The signature broth is made with dozens of herbs, chile peppers, and peppercorns that have been sourced from different Chinese provinces and fried in beef tallow. In the Before Times, diners began each meal by making their own sauce from the ingredients on hand, including herbs, chiles, and garlic. Da Long Yi’s signature sesame oil is poured into each customer’s creation, a tradition specific to Sichuan-style hot pot." - Kristie Hang
