The Magic Of Chong Qing Hot Pot

choice 1, Curry Fish Head at the downstairs zi cha. choice 2, a steamboat style dinner in the form of The Magic Of Chong Qing Hot Pot.

after deliberating with dennis and maren for 30 secs (but not before the wifey bugging me for 30 mins), we decided that it will be the hotpot despite the possibility of bad traffic.

and after an evening of 8 treasures tea, spicy soup and an array of food ranging from sliced fish to ox tongue, I would say its a truly enjoyable evening. not just because the food was good and arguably worth the money, but the german company we had.

the conversations, sharing of experiences, laughter and banter made the 3 hour dinner time seems like .... 2.5. kidding, more like 1 hour. I forgot about work and couldnt really care.

so are we going back soon? probably not coz $180 its a tad too steep to pay for a big bowl of piping hot spicy soup with a little more than avg food. but we are going to remember this evening for a long time to come. thanks to Facebook.
