Love Nutrient Chong Qing Skewer Hot Pot (重庆串串香) @ Trengganu Road, Georgetown, Penang.

Leveraged on the ability of social media, Chong Qing Skewer Hot Pot (重庆串串香) has latterly made known every bit 1 of the few restaurants that offers spicy Sze Chuan-influenced Hot Pot inward a unique way. But they may bring underestimated the crowd as well as due to weak manpower planning, the service was horrible. The Hot Pot eating seat housed inward 1 of the corner units (terrace house) along Trengganu Road has a uncomplicated setting- customers are facial expression to dine-in at the household yard. There is no air-conditioner but a few weak fans as well as blowers (heat intolerant last warned!); amongst that beingness said, the ventilation is fairly bad. The concept is simple- lodge your preferred Soup base(s) as well as pick upwardly your desired ingredients at the display refrigerator (skewered/ Rm 0.90 per skewer). But create non facial expression to larn a big slice of meat at that price, instead.... for a misfortunate slice of Chicken Wing, it comes amongst two skewers (Rm 1.80).  Apart from the Hot Pot, diners may opt to lodge their attain of barbecued items every bit well. 



Sze Chuan Spicy Soup amongst Clear Soup (Rm 14.90)


Lok Lok Skewer (Rm 0.90 per stick)

H5N1 repast at Chong Qing Skewer Hot Pot volition non last cheap. The mixed Soup of Sze Chuan Spicy Soup as well as Clear Soup costs Rm 14.90 but both of them were nether seasoned as well as barely registered whatever flavors. The Sze Chuan Spicy Soup was non actually that spicy as well as lacked the distinctive Sze Chuan spicy smell primarily derived from Chinese Peppercorns. Also, the lack of choices for the dips left us underwhelmed. Unfortunately.... unlikely a revisit.
