Spicy Hot Pot of Tripod King

      I can eat spicy food.
     When it comes to the question what my favorite food is, the answer is undoubtedly mapo tofu. In reality, I have fondness for every kind of spicy food. Therefore, I am also a huge fan of spicy hot pot. My family eats spicy hot pot once every few months. We always choose the TripotKing (鼎王), which is originated in my resident city, Taichung. Its spicy soup for hot pot is made from different Chinese herbs that give the soup a savory flavor and avoid unpleasantly salty taste. The generous amount of delicious tofu and duck blood curds is highly commended. We took away the hot pot and enjoyed it at home every time because it is more convenient to dine at home, and we could divide the hot pot into several meals to eat.

     For me, the spicy hot pot is not so spicy. However, according to my high tolerance of spicy food, my reaction to it is not dependable. But it's indeed tasty. During the freezing winter season, the TripotKing's business is inconceivably great. Even in hot summer like these days, it is still a popular restaurant. If you have chance to visit Taichung (or Taipei or Kaohsiung, it has a branch there respectively), don't miss the inviting spicy hot pot of the TripodKing.
