Panda Hot Pot

Translate

Hotspot staged like a martial arts film set in ancient China.

See that 1.5 tonne floating dragon suspended from the ceiling? You’re in the right place. Animated clouds fly across the ceiling of this grand double-height hall, a high-energy alternate reality. Don’t deliberate on your soup bases; whip-cracking staff want you to order quickly to maximise cooking time (for lip-numbing fire, go the signature Sichuan).

Kidneys and gizzards come neatly arranged in an organ-filled treasure chest and mashed prawn is wrapped in veil-like bamboo fungus, ready to be dunked. While your beef tripe bubbles in the collagen-rich fish maw, scoot to the buffet and build your own dipping sauce.

Fast-paced and intense, Panda is not where you come for a relaxing meal – but the fun factor is high. Hit up the self-serve soft-serve and brace yourself – leaving this simmering fever dream and returning to the real world is a jolt.

Good to know: Keep an eye on their Instagram – monthly promos might just score you a freebie.
