It's definitely worth the money compared to other lunch menus which is around $20 for an entree. Unlimited beef or lamb rolls that come on a plate, nicely displayed. Service is good too for an Asian place. Knowing how to speak Mandarin helps too. Lots of variety of veggies, and other things one would like to try in one's hot pot. The sauce station is wonderful too!! You can also get little appetizers and some hot food that is already cooked. The downside is their 3 items dessert area and one soft serve per person. The soft serve was not acknowledged to us the first time I was there. I had to ask about it the second time I was there. I loved each experience and I am glad we have a hot pot place in Mississauga.

Tips: - The lunch hot pot is $20.99. The dinner hot pot is…read more$28.99. Both don't include broth. - There is a promotion going on (May 2025) where if you get the dinner hot pot for lunch or dinner, pay an extra $1 to get broth. - I'd skip the meat at the self-serve area. You get enough beef and lamb already. Last Wednesday, our departmental meeting was pushed from its usual 1 pm start to 2:30 pm. Our team meeting was cancelled due to this move. I asked my friend what his schedule was like. It was clear, except for our afternoon meeting. It was the same for me. We had talked a while back about going for hot pot. I asked if he wanted to do hot pot for lunch. He said yes. Yay! We found three hot pot places roughly twenty minutes away from the office. We decided to try this one. We both hadn't been here before. I drove us over here. There was lots of parking in front of the restaurant. I backed into a spot and we walked in. We were promptly greeted by a woman. We got a table of two. We were quickly seated at table 37. Our seats were comfortable. The table was large enough for our hot pot, and all our food and drinks during our meal. We got menus. The lunch hot pot was $20.99. The dinner hot pot was available for $28.99. The only difference is that there's a section in the self-serve area that has dinner items only. We were told that there was a special going on. If we each got the dinner hot pot for $28.99, we could add $1 for broth. We said yes. Broth is separate. It's an interesting pricing structure. We wanted two types of broth for $9.99, but we added the $1 on the dinner hot pot to check everything out. For the broths, we got clear and curry. The woman said that she'd bring the pot out with the broths and we could help ourselves to the self-serve area. We liked both broths. My friend liked the clear one better. The curry tasted like Japanese-style curry, which had my heart. There was a lot of food. I made the mistake of getting dumplings and beef meatballs that were raw. I also got fish balls that were cooked. I recommend sticking with the beef and lamb slices, and skipping the proteins in the self-serve areas. There's enough protein already. Lesson learned! The fountain drinks are at the back. My friend loved the orange juice. He said that it was addictive like Tang. Oh, wow! I alternated between the Diet Coke and plum juice. They were excellent. I was happy with getting veggies, udon, and rice sticks. The mushrooms, potatoes, and sweet potatoes were fun to cook and eat. Any green veggie also worked well. We got thin slices of beef and lamb. They cooked quickly. I liked the beef more. The lamb was gamey even after you dip it in whatever sauce you have created. We felt that the pot itself was up high on the table. The depth of this pot was probably three inches. The cooking element was not sunken into the table. Trying to figure out where our food was swimming and whether it was cooked took more care than usual. We are fairly tall people and the added pot height took us by surprise. The pot also wasn't centred properly. Our curry broth was boiling away, but the clear was at a low simmer. I shifted the pot, which seemed to have made a difference to get both broths to do the same rolling boil. Sadly, one of my huge lamb dumplings wasn't cooked properly when I checked because of the weird discrepancy with the boils. I ended up putting it in a small bowl, pouring hot broth on top of it, and cooking it that way. I had already opened it up to check for doneness and didn't want to drop it back in. I felt like I overdid the cooking, but at least it was fully cooked! I somehow managed to get some dessert, which was a small section in the self-serve area. I got a small chocolate cake square, which was delicious. There were also peaches that were clearly out of a can. The honeydew melon chunks were fresh. I frankly feel that the lunch hot pot with a broth purchase would have been sufficient. I was happy to have tried mini corn cobs, enoki, and more from the dinner section. I would have been fine without it because there were so many food options. Our server asked if we wanted ice cream. It came with our meal. We were so full that we skipped it. The washrooms are in the back, just before you hit the beverages. The women's was clean. My friend paid for both of us at the front counter. I ended up paying him back when I got us back to the office. It's not bad paying roughly $35 after taxes for such a feast. We had a good time. It was a lot of food. We learned what not to do, so we'll be back to perfect our hot pot skills and try to squeeze in some ice cream! (160)

Fast forward to 2026. We're in the Toronto area and I notice there are a handful of Myung Dong style restaurants on my search. We ended up picking this one because it was the closest one from our hotel. Without knowing the quality of the other options, we were so glad we made this choice. Similar menu and the kimchi is one of the stars of the show. Slightly unripe, but loaded with garlic, we couldn't get enough of it. The kalguksu had a mild, but peppery broth; and all members of my family thought it was the best they'd ever had. We also ordered the bossam (pork belly) and steamed mandoo. Eating here was the highlight of our trip. We even considered going back the next day!

All of their meats were fresh, well tempered (not stale/straight out of the freezer). Condiment bar was self serve and had a wide selection to customize your sauce. Their veggies were also very fresh & the appetizers such as wings & the squid ink dumpling were AMAZING. Soft drinks are also included in the Premium AYCE price at $45/pp after tax. All of their waitstaff we interacted with were kind, patient, attentive, and helpful. Their seating layout is also notable-- each individual table was enclosed, it gave a more cozy/private feel rather than loud & overstimulating despite dining during peak hour. If I could critique even just one thing, it'd be the dessert options, almond pudding and ice jelly were a bit disappointing to end the meal with cuz they weren't great in our opinion, but not problematic enough for me to dock a star. Next time I'm craving hotpot, Daimaru will absolutely be at the top of my choice list moving forward!

And when we found out it's a joint where you pick out your own components for a bowl of soup, we were extremely intrigued and excited to eventually check it out. So it was that we popped in for a meal on a recent Saturday. The place is quite small inside, but the man behind the counter was very friendly and explained how everything worked. We were given a large plastic bowl and told to fill it with the various components we wanted, which proved to be no small task as there were dozens of options available. I wound up cramming my bowl with different kinds of meat and sausages, along with a few standard veggies like bok choy and mushrooms. After that was done, I took my bowl back to the aforementioned man and requested the bone broth and the spiciest level of heat they had. (I was urged to go with medium instead, which I did and which turned out to be the right move, because the medium was more like very, very, very spicy.) The finished soup was brought to the table a short while later and it looked quite tasty. I wasn't expecting much but I'll admit that my socks were properly knocked off. This is one terrific, flavorful bowl of soup. The broth is so rich and layered, and it's enhanced by a heaping helping of garlic and chili oil. I'd put this right up there with the best ramen on offer in the GTA. Did I need quite so many components in the soup itself? No, probably not. When I return (and I certainly will), I'll definitely be a bit more conservative in terms of adding in ingredients. But wow, I am so impressed by Youxia Malatang.
