Unlike most people eating out for lunch or dinner, the customers at Hot Pot Legend are more than happy to cook their own meals. That's because the house specialty here is the hot pot, a Chinese family-style meal that involves everyone at the table cooking their own food in a pot of hot, savory, and sometimes spicy broth. And at Hot Pot Legend, the broth can be very spicy, because the restaurant offers it either without peppers or filled with them. Whichever soup guests choose, they can order a variety of food to cook in it, from tofu and mushrooms to lamb and noodles—all raw, of course. They can then cook and savor each morsel at their own pace, making it a quick lunch or a lengthy dinner with friends.
