Shuang Shuang, Shaftesbury Avenue, London

Chinese Hot Pot specialist Shuang Shuang really know how to make a girl feel hot and bothered…quite literally. I mean, maybe a humid, hot and rainy day , sitting and cooking over a steaming pot of soup may not be the best plan- but we embraced it. My hair may have left a lot larger than when I went in, but it was deffo worth it!
It’s odd how cooking your own food in a restaurant seems like such fun – I just can’t get enough! So excited at the prospect of rustling up my own hot pot and getting carried away with the occasion I even went crazy and ordered crispy pigs ears! I instantly regretted it and was so very scared about what would arrive but we were pleasantly surprised. Almost like a thinner (and hotter) version of pork scratchings. Much recommended, if you can put aside any reservations 😀

We had the Tom yum and chicken broth with steak, prawns and chicken as well as lots of veg. All together £45.

So delicious and fresh, plus really soothing and comforting on a rainy day. Great fun and prices aren’t bad either!

Go hot or go home!
