Xiang Hot Pot is an all-you-can-eat hotpot spot in Brooklyn famous for its cute bear-shaped soup base molds, including a butter caviar spicy broth, alongside vegan options like mushroom broth. Diners can enjoy extensive selections of skewers, quality meats, seafood, sushi, and a massive DIY sauce station. The experience is rounded out by unlimited drinks and specialty desserts like tanghulu and bear egg waffles.
