Xiao Wei Yang Mongolian hotpot - Phoenix Hotel, Abu Dhabi

Inner Mongolian Xiao Wei Yang Little Lamb Hot Pot Restaurant (What a mouth-full!) was our choice of dinner location last night ;-) E, C and myself ended up paying about 200 AED for the meal, or just under 70 AED (Or RM$55) per head. Reasonable value for a nice restaurant.

E is busy contemplating if we should have "specialist" or "spare parts" ie. genitals, kidney etc. Uh ... no, we shall stick to thinly sliced lamb and to-fu!


Ah... refreshing. My first taste of Wong Lo Kat! Thanks C for recommending this place, great meal!

Here's how we enjoyed the meal - We had really delicious grilled chicken wings (the one with the perpendicular bamboo skewers), then the Yin-yang Hot Pot arrived. The white broth was a herbal-soup with garlic and tong-kuai, and on the right there was fu-chuk, bamboo shoots and delicious boned chicken pieces.

When you have nearly finished eating the chicken pieces, you can ask the waiter to add in the spicy-paste and soup, which combines to form a powerful tasty spicy soup. You can of course dilute this with the white soup :-) Dip your choice of meats and veges in the soup (The thinly sliced lamb is delicious!), it cooks quite quickly in under 1 minute and dip it into a combination of soya/chilli/garlic/coriander/oil/oyster-sauce/sesame paste. A hearty and enjoyable meal!
