Photohunters - Hot


九格麻辣锅

Fiery Hot!!!

The famous Chongqing Hot Pot is usually eaten on cold winter days but nowadays you can see this on every street and city of China, and even in hot sunny Singapore!

Usually after a few mouthfuls, your tears would flow, your lips would feel numb and every pore on your body would be opened.
To the people of Chongqing, that is only their normal level. There are several levels of hotness to chose from.

When you visit a hot pot restaurant in Chongqing, you can see more than a hundred tables with hundreds of diners sitting round hundreds of boiling hot pots! Amazing!



Warning : Your lips would look like this after the meal! Sausage Lips!!!


Happy Weekend, every one!!!

  46. My lips is quite sensitive, thus even one bowl of hot laksa can turn my lips to a duck lip like what you've shown here. So embarrassing!

    Anyway, this hotpot is certainly too hot! it's gonna be tasteless after a few mouth, isn't it? :~
