Miss the days of this great closed restaurant | More than just hot pot, it was a hidden izakaya🫕

🍺 A hot pot restaurant with the soul of an izakaya 🥢 From hot pots to creative bar snacks, everything was amazing 🈳 Sadly, it's closed now! Great places don't always last forever, but their deliciousness deserves to be remembered! Sharing my memories of '粟木小火鍋' 🥹 The first time I visited, I felt this place was special. It looked like a cafe despite being a hot pot restaurant. The menu had not only hot pots but also various creative handmade dishes, seafood small plates, and alcohol. It had the sign of a hot pot restaurant but the soul of an izakaya! The dishes were mostly between 200-300 NTD, and drinks, white rice, Prince Noodles, glass noodles, and bread🍞 were all-you-can-eat~ The value for money was very high. In the corner, there was a retro arcade machine, which immediately brought back childhood memories. 🐔 Soy Milk Fried Chicken Hot Pot - Marinated chicken thigh meat cooked in the broth, making the soup sweeter as it simmered~ The chicken juice burst with every bite. 🥩 Beef Belly / Pork Belly - The marbling was as beautiful as sashimi. 🍜 Pumpkin Seafood Udon - Rich pumpkin broth paired with various seafood, a perfect fusion of Japanese and Western flavors. It came with 5 types of seafood: scallops, shrimp, mussels, clams, and bay scallops. Adding white rice after eating turned it into pumpkin risotto, basically a hidden menu item! 🦐 Garlic Shrimp Rice - So many shrimp, you could barely see the rice, topped with a poached egg. The flowing egg yolk merged all the flavors together, a dish foodies would fall in love with at first bite. 🍤 Mentaiko Lava Shrimp Balls, bursting shrimp balls with a rich, handmade mentaiko sauce. I feel that documenting food isn't just about sharing where it's delicious It's also about preserving the memory of the restaurants that put their heart into their cooking and gave us wonderful dining experiences.
