Qiao Lin Hotpot - Review - Downtown - Seattle - The Infatuation

"Qiao Lin is the rare hot pot (and Downtown) spot where you can walk in and grab a table quickly. But the appeal goes beyond convenience. Squeeze into a booth with a group and slurp broth in the lively main dining room where bottles of soju fill the tables and cuts of meat whiz by on gold cow-shaped sculptures. Or order a solo pot and hang out in a quieter section near the bar. There’s a chance your giant raw beef charcuterie board may come out way before the rest of your order, messing up the pace a bit, but the quality of meats is high and even better when dunked in Qiao Lin’s sweet tomato broth." - Kayla Sager-Riley
