This was our tea tonight. It's hotpot, a traditional Chinese dish, from the Chongqing region. It's a bit like a fondue, with a sauce of water, oil and a spice mix consisting mostly of chilli and Szechuan peppercorns. Food is boiled in this sauce and fished out with chopsticks when ready. Not to be gone near unless you like really hot food.
