Tanyoto

You'll appreciate this hot pot restaurant as much for its good food as for its warmly lit, inviting dining room. The space is large and airy and affords privacy at every table. Ambience aside, the keys to great hot pot are the broth -- here it is rich and flavorful -- and the dipping sauce. Ingredients vary, but are likely to include bean sprouts, leeks, a variety of mushrooms, sausages, seafood, organ meats, and/or duck tongues. Fish heads, which may sound exotic, are the signature ingredient of the shop. There are different kinds of fish heads that you can pick. They are fresh and very nice to go with the spicy broth. I recommend the ma la (hot and numbing) hot pots, but a handful selection of non-chili broth is also available. Bin tofu (frozen tofu), which absorbs the essence of the soup, is a must-have item.
