Indulge in some exquisite beef brisket hot pot without the need to travel to Hong Kong at Li Fang Hot Pot. Their chef meticulously crafts dishes that feature perfectly stewed radish and beef brisket that will make your mouth water.

Prepared using traditional clay pot cooking techniques, the beef brisket is simmered over low heat to enhance its taste. The addition of high-quality beef bone broth, stewed for over six hours, results in a succulent texture. The radish, described as even tastier than the meat, complements the dish beautifully as it has absorbed the essence of the beef broth.

Their milk tea is also recommended. With a delightful blend of flavors, the sugar and tea leaves are heated in a ceramic pot to enhance the flavor. Fresh milk, osmanthus, and rose flowers are then added to create a drink that is both fragrant and mellow.
