A must-try item on the hot pot menu is the #Fresh Tripe from Slaughterhouse#, priced at 68 yuan. The tripe is available in limited daily quantities, and its freshness is evident. Each piece is generously sized, thinly sliced, and the upright barbs on the surface are a testament to its quality. After a quick 10-second blanch, the tripe is steeped in buttery soup, resulting in a bite that is brimming with a fresh, fragrant aroma. The barbs gently caress the tongue, offering a delightful interplay of spiciness and freshness.
Another delicacy is the #Black Fish Slices#, costing 28 yuan. The fish slices, once blanched, are incredibly tender and smooth. Their rich, aromatic flavor dances and lingers on the palate, truly enhancing the joy of hot pot dining.
For a premium choice, the #Supreme Snowflake Beef# at 128 yuan is a sight to behold, presented on a dragon boat. This beef is cooked in a mushroom health-preserving pot, and its tenderness is accentuated when dipped in sauce. It retains the quintessential beef flavor, with a rich, meaty aroma that fills the mouth. The beef absorbs the hot pot’s broth perfectly, creating an explosion of flavor that we devoured in mere minutes.
Lastly, the #Volcanic Explosive Beef Balls# at 30 yuan are a unique offering. These beef balls are wrapped with salted egg yolk, offering a surprising burst of fresh, salty egg yolk in the center, which is sure to captivate the taste buds.The plump meat and the rich aroma of freshness of our #Premium Lamb Meat for 39 Yuan# are so enticing that one can hardly resist the urge to savor it. It would be a disservice to your taste buds not to indulge in the temptation of lamb.
In the world of hot pot, there is a must-order dish called #Nine-Foot Goose Intestine#. The goose intestine here is not overly thick but reaches an impressive length of nine feet. After being immersed in the bubbling broth for a quick 15 seconds, it is swiftly placed into your mouth, offering a delightful crunch and resilience that is emotionally satisfying.
One bite is never enough; the lingering flavor compels you to continue, unable to put down your chopsticks. This culinary experience is best enjoyed at Die Wei Hot Pot. It greatly enriches the inner taste of beef.
