[@DonutsReview]

WOAH man....2min for what? Those thin meats go in for about 2-4 seconds depending if it's beef or lamb. Did you guys really leave them in there for 2 min? LOL

[@weizhang2834]

The first time I ate haidilao around 3am in Beijing in 2003 . In that time not so much expensive like 5dollor/ per person and every student can afford it

You forgot to mix your own dipping sauces from the sauce bar. There are like a dozen to choose from. Do try it next time!

Dude, you should get some sauce!!! I'm getting nearly brain-damaged watching you eating stuff directly from the pot LOL.

[@刘恩宠]

hahaha 😂

[@jplin888]

Xuanting Chen True. Help to cool down the food and taste better.

[@yugong2902]

吃火锅，不带蘸料，真是一个没有灵魂的家伙！

[@p_eppermint]

Do you have a recommended mix?

[@xuantingchen2506]

@@p_eppermint For a spicy pot, sesame oil + mashed garlic will be superior. You can also add cilantro or scallion as you wish. For non-spicy ones, my preference is seafood sauce + peanut sauce + little bit sesame oil + chilli oil + cilantro/scallion.

[@nihaonea]

Thank you for the lovely meal! Wow everyone is saying we forgot to get the sauce buffet 😅 Definitely won't forget the sauce next time 😅

[@satanshameer690]

Actually you have to make a sauce from selected ingredients for dipping the cooked items

[@aquariuscaesar2858]

David, you should dip the meat in the soup for 30 seconds and can enjoy it. No more than 30 seconds, it'll be tough. You should dip the boiled meat in the hotpot dipping sauce to get the full experience of hotpot.

[@Davidsbeenhere]

thanks for the tip! I will keep that in mind for next time :)

[@yanglu9555]

Caesar, you beat me to it, I was going to tell him the same thing. But eating hot pot suppose to be hot, spicy, and numbing that's the experience. But the best way to cool the spicy taste for people is to ask for some rice.

[@badass8175]

As a Chinese I would like to say: you are a hot pot master.

[@p_eppermint]

Can you recommend what to put in the dipping sauce?

[@Annabelle_Xie]

the fruit and cold dishes in the sauce area is free. There are more than 20 kinds of sauces (garlic, soil sauce etc) in the sauce area. It is better to dip the food in the mixed sauce.

[@ericliume]

You totally missed the sauce bar. You need to make a bowl or two of sauces for yourself. Then after boiling the mean or vegi, you can dip them in the savory sauce you made.

[@rog9278]

Great video! But I think it's important for people to know this: Please don't put the meat in the boiling hotpot for more than 30 seconds (actually I would say 20 seconds is sufficient)... unless you are making some sort of jerky. This applies to all the thinly sliced hotpot meat dishes.

[@maniacyro5167]

Cooking the meat in hotpot for 2 minutes is blasphemous. For me personally more than 10 seconds the meat is uneatable.

[@kamerykofficial]

It’s crazy coming back watching this & seeing how much you’ve built your spice tolerance! I love rewatching your videos & your journey growing as a foodie! ☺️

We Chinese dip the boiled lamb into sauce. The restaurant offer a lot of sause you can chose.

[@sagonk7355]

可能外国人不知道酱的重要性吧，有些餐馆调味碟也要收费的

[@sungsyotto]

If you plan to go to Hai Di Lao again, you should get the dipping sauces which usually are displayed near the entrance. They have a variety of flavors and sauces that you can DIY and pick as many as you want based on your own preference. It can help reduce the spiciness and add additional flavor to the food.

Is it me or did you guys forget to make your own hot pot sauce to dip the food in? that's the best part!

[@ravik007ggn]

I did that the first time I went to Haidilao. Big mistake. I had a Sichuanese guy in front of me and he was eating like it was nothing.

[@yryanq]

i thought u were supposed to use dipping sauce which is a kind of sesame or peanut paste to make the food less hot and more flavorful

[@phengov943]

Add the spice in the dipping sauce only that is the way I like it.

[@Davidsbeenhere]

yes sir :)

[@phengov943]

@@Davidsbeenhere no its okay to eat your way as you had flavoured soup, I have hot pot at home just using boiling water so need to dip it for some extra flavour. Not used to spicy hot not, but cambodian version we use satay soup mix for the spicy soup hot pot.
