The Best Hot Pot Restaurants In Chicago
"Known in other cities as Xiao Long Kan, Shoo Loong Kan is a popular, international hot pot chain. Like its other locations, Chicago's has an ornately designed dining room full of carved wooden paneling, red lanterns, and large stone tables perfect for groups. Each party can order up to three different broths, like mushroom, pork bone, and their spicy house chili that opens up sinuses even at the lowest spice level. Flavorwise, the broths are a bit mild, but develop more depth as ingredients like A5 wagyu, shrimp paste, and enoki mushrooms (all of which are ordered via iPad) are cooked in them. The dipping sauce station is an extra charge, but comes with appetizers like beef tripe in chili oil, and some refreshing fruit." - adrian kane, john ringor
