Have you ever had hot pot? If not, would you want to try it? A recent article describes it this way:

Hot pot offers a chance for loved ones and chosen family alike to gather close over the same steaming bowl, lowering ingredients into the communal broth for all to grab, and assembling servings for one another. It’s both meal and act, fostering intimacy and nostalgia.
