I first checked out KPOT for my friend's birthday, and we had a wonderful time! We waited about 30 minutes for a table since we had a big group. Definitely get here early on a weekend night! We started by checking out the buffet of desserts and sides--French fries, fried sesame red bean balls (my favorite), oranges, small cakes, and a build-your-own-sauce station including soy sauce/kimchi/ponzu/chili oil and more.
Your whole table can choose either hot pot OR BBQ and if you want both hot pot and BBQ, you pay a few extra dollars.
After ordering a soup broth base, we ordered items with the tablet. They limit you to ordering a maximum number of items at a time, which makes sense so you don't end up with a bunch of food leftover. You can't bring the leftover food home, so only order what you can eat! It was fun to have your own individual hot pot to cook the meat, vegetables, tofu, and seafood and they have a HUGE variety of items to add into the hot pot. I like how the pot doesn't get super hot to the touch, so it was safe for my daughter to cook her own food. My seafood broth was good, but I loved my daughter's golden broth that came with goji berries and jujubes.
For your birthday, the waiters come out singing happy birthday and holding up a "Happy Birthday to you!" sign which was so much fun! read more
