Whenever my friends and I are in the mood for some hotpot, this is the spot we always head to. They never fail to satisfy our cravings! They have this 9 spicy squared pot, but you can also get a duo pot with a different soup base. It’s a great option if you want to try out different soup bases. The restaurant has a Chong Qing theme, and the atmosphere is super cool. We always end our meal with “bing fen” (see pic 3), which is a popular Chinese dessert. It’s like a jelly-like dish served cold and topped with various ingredients like brown sugar syrup, crushed peanuts, raisins, sesame seeds, and fresh fruits. It’s a perfect treat for hot weather, known for its cooling properties and light, refreshing taste. Chongqing Lao Zao 重慶老灶 📍37-04 Prince St, Flushing, NY 11354
