锦鲤壹品Jinli Hot pot was tonight’s eatery. As you sit down you can ask for a handheld menu, or you can access their menu digitally with a QR code. Their menu is made up of about 8 hot pots. The meals are set up so that your one and only hot pot will fill you. If you’re still hungry after your hot pot, you can just order more ingredients to put in it. Your hot pot will be the foundation. Once you choose a hot pot, you get to pick more ingredients to put in it. My server told me her favourite hot pot. This turns out to be a famous hot pot, which is known worldwide. It is numb and spicy with many chilis. She said plum juice goes well with this particular hot pot, so I got that, too. My main add on was the $60 Wagyu. As I began eating, a server introduced me to the sauces station. They allow you to create your own, unique sauce. After you boil your food, you’re meant to dip it in your sauce. The one I created had minced garlic, sesame sauce, soya sauce, oyster sauce, and chili oil. They were sold out of all desserts except rice cakes. I took a set of those. They were golden brown and had a brown powder. Several came on a plate. Crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. My total came to a whopping $123! This restaurant is run differently than typical North American ones. Here, I cooked my food on my own stove. I was given almost no privacy from other parties of people, because I sat in the center which was an open space. And I used Asian cutlery. Jinli is most likely London’s finest hot pot house. The customization lets you eat exactly what and how you want. I’m already dreaming of my next visit.
Loved my experience at Jinli. The food was delicious, the service was great, and the price was reasonable. I’m really happy there’s a good place in London for hotpot!
Delicious authentic Chinese Hot Pot. A lot of options. I recommend this restaurant!
Great hot pot experience with very friendly staff and owner!
Amazing authentic Szechuan style Hot-Pot. Had an incredible time. Service was so fast and they have an astonishing selection of traditional ingredients. Made me so nostalgic for when I visited China. It's tastes just like the hotpot I use to have in Sichuan Chengdu! The staff are super friendly too. I'm absolutely coming back to eat again!
The Chinese restaurant with the most Chinese atmosphere that I ever got. Quality food with constantly new changes in the menu. Good for date or just group of friends
Great hotpot place! Delicious, and definitely worth the price if you go with a big enough group ◡̈
