"Round up the group chat, slide into a leather banquette booth, and pile the table high at the neon-lit, beer-tower-fuelled, and lychee cocktail-ready Hotto Potto. At this Sichuan hot pot restaurant in Aldgate you can slide straight from one sofa-like seat to another and burn off the black beef tripe sweats downstairs at the high-tech KTV disco. The booths down here look like they’ve been ripped straight out of a prom limo—in a great way." - sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley
