Just listen to the name, the town dish of this shop is dry pot. Judging from the taste and popularity, the boss dares to call himself the "pot god", proving that the dishes do have some strength.

When it comes to dry pots, many people's first reaction is Sichuan. In fact, the dishes of Xiangjiang River, Dongting Lake and Xiangxi Mountain Area in Hunan Province are quite different, and the chopped pepper fish head, which occupies the main force of the Suzhou market, is only one of the representative dishes of the main cuisine of Xiangjiang. Since Yiyang is a part of the Dongting Lake basin, it is generally not specifically mentioned.

Many people can't tell the difference between a dry pot and a spicy fragrant pot, but in fact, they are not the same thing. The dry pot is made of chicken, duck, bullfrog, rabbit and other single meats, supplemented by potatoes, lotus root and other vegetarian dishes to increase the flavor, the finished product has no soup, rich seasoning is attached to the surface of the ingredients, and the entrance is dry and fragrant. The finished product of the spicy fragrant pot has a small amount of soup, and the guests choose their own ingredients, generally more meat with more vegetables, the guests will inevitably choose the ingredients with uncoordinated taste, resulting in the whole pot of dishes are affected, and the chef only seasons and stir-fries according to the same method, which is not scientific enough, and the taste is naturally not as ideal as the dry pot. As for Sichuan dry pot and Hunan dry pot, the two methods are roughly the same, but Sichuan dry pot likes to put peppercorns, and the taste is numb; Hunan dry pot is not numb, and the spicy flavor is prominent.

The dry pot of the pot god is Hunan method, just to cater to the local taste of Suzhou, slightly reduce the spiciness, focus on the fresh and mellow, and also play a little clever in the side dishes, add about the thickness of the finger of the rice cake, fried out of dry crispy and chewy, very pleasing to the locals. The dry pot has a very rich taste, full of spiced duck, chicken wing legs, bullfrog, open side shrimp, octopus, catfish, crispy bones, spicy rabbit and other flavors, each flavor is well done, with cold beer, sparkling drinks are quite enjoyable, people to the store are basically for the dry pot. Each flavor is available in large and small portions, and the unit price of small portions is seventy or eighty yuan, which is suitable for two to three people; The price of a large portion is about 120 yuan, which is suitable for three to five people, and it is more cost-effective. If you happen to encounter a group purchase activity in the store, it is even more valuable.

In addition to dry pots, the store also serves many common Hunan dishes. However, the dry pot is handled by a dedicated chef, and the other dishes are prepared by another chef. It is a pity that the chef in charge of dishes other than dry pot has average skills, the dishes are oily and salty, and lack the strong aroma of Hunan cuisine, only dry and spicy and salty, which seems to have a heavy taste, but in fact it is tasteless, which lowers a lot of impression points; Fortunately, the selection of materials is good, suitable for casual eating. If you want to order more side dishes, it is recommended to choose saliva chicken, egg yolk pork ribs, roast rabbit legs, sizzling tofu, hot pot and cucumber with dipping sauce. A small amount of Subang cuisine is even worse, and the wine-stuffed dumplings are seriously thickened, which is extremely inauthentic.

On the whole, the dishes of this store are seriously polarized, and there is only the ambition of "pot god", and there is no full strength. Since the restaurant is located on Guanqian Street, where young people gather, the store is open and comfortable, and the ventilation is good, so there are many repeat customers in the neighborhood. People like to bring two or three friends, eat dry pot, order some cold drinks and appetizers, eat very satisfied, and don't mind the other dishes are mediocre.

The shop is very popular, with many customers until 8 p.m., and there is usually no queue due to the ample space on the upper and lower floors.
