"Hou Yi Hot Pot is a magical place on the Lower East Side, crowded with people and suffused with the smell of meat and boiling chiles. It’s AYCE, there's a scoop-it-yourself ice cream station, and the broth is some of the spiciest in the city. You’ll pay a little over $45 per person for a massive amount of food, but you pretty much have to speed-eat it, because by the time you choose and cook your food, you’ve likely used up a chunk of your 100-minute time limit. If you’re sensitive to spice, pick a milder broth." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine
"The AYCE deal at this hot pot restaurant in Chinatown costs $45, and also involves the city’s largest broth selection. Hou Yi offers over 30 different types of broth, making it the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine of dipping meat and seafood into boiling liquid. Come with a few friends, mix and match herbal broths with tomato-based soups, and make sure at least one person gets something very spicy. When you’re ready to cool off, the deal also includes all-you-can-scoop ice cream, with 12 flavors to choose from." - will hartman, willa moore, bryan kim, carlo mantuano
"Hou Yi Hot Pot is a magical place. It’s all-you-can-eat, there's a scoop-it-yourself ice cream station, and the broth is some of the spiciest in the city. Yes, you'll pay a little over $40 per person for 100 minutes of hot pot, but keep in mind: The food is unlimited. If you don't want to sweat while you eat, go with one of the mild broths. The little room on the Lower East Side is casual and no-nonsense, and it will inevitably smell like meat and boiling chilis when you stop by. If you need something to do after dinner, check out a nearby bar." - bryan kim
