Day 3 : Hot Pot!

Chinese Hot Pot

Last night we went to a Chinese restaurant for Hot Pot. What is that you might ask? Like the name suggests you basically get a brass cauldron filled with boiling water, simmering over hot coals. Everyone sits around this and cooks thinly sliced meat and vegetables as desired (a pologies for the poor mobile pic!). Whilst I could stomach most of it I didn’t quite fancy the live shrimps - somehow watching them writhing around in water put me off! The rest was very delicious, the best part being that we were to only foreigners in the restaurant - always a good sign :-)
