Sister Pei Old Hot Pot (Hongya Cave Store) - Business Reviews

Sister Pei is a veritable queuing king of Chongqing hot pot in recent years, and it is no exaggeration to say that the hot pot restaurant is open 24 hours a day, and there are people queuing almost all day. Many out-of-town diners even took it as the first stop for Chongqing Internet celebrities to check in, and they rushed to line up with their suitcases. The service of the store is also quite intimate, diners can enjoy an 8.8% discount on dishes with a ticket to Chongqing within three days or a high-speed rail ticket, and the store has also set up a special wall to post the bills received in the past, the scene looks quite spectacular.

Sister Pei's pot bottom is known for being spicy, with slightly spicy, medium spicy and heavy spicy options, and the taste is much spicier than that of Zhen Sanguan and Ba Bao Hot under the same choice. The soup at the bottom of the pot is red and bright and clear, and the chili pepper plays its greatest role under the catalysis of butter and high temperature after the fire, but the spicy taste is prominent, the fragrance is slightly insufficient, and only the thick and spicy taste is left in the later stage of eating, and the oil aroma is not long-lasting enough. The flavor dish belongs to the traditional reformist school, and a mushroom pickle is added on the basis of sesame oil and garlic paste in Chongqing old hot pot, which adds a touch of salty aroma to the ordinary oil dish and can also neutralize some of the spiciness. By default, the dishes do not contain chopped green onions, coriander and oyster sauce, so diners can inform the waiter if necessary.

Sister Pei has a super high flow of customers every day, which ensures the freshness of the dishes to a certain extent. The store is also careful in the processing process, the ingredients are processed cleanly, and the dishes such as yellow throat, duck intestines, and kidney slices will not have any peculiar smell. The special dish of four kidney treasure contains four kinds of sheep kidney, chicken kidney, pig kidney and rabbit kidney, the sheep kidney is refreshing, the chicken kidney is soft and rotten, the pig kidney is tender and smooth, and the rabbit kidney has a strong flavor. 8 seconds potato slices and bamboo shoot slices are slices of ingredients, and after 5-8 seconds of shabu-shabu in the pot, they can be eaten.

Sister Pei currently has 4 stores in Chongqing, each of which is super popular, and there is basically no difference in the environment, taste and dishes between the branches, but due to the geographical location of the Changkou store and the Hongyadong store, the average waiting time is basically about 3 hours, and it will even wait for 4 hours during peak periods, which is much longer than the other two branches, and diners can choose according to their needs. The staff in the store are friendly, but there is a shortage of staff during peak hours, and the service speed will be greatly reduced, and it is not uncommon for people to forget to serve food.

It is worth mentioning that Dongsheng Old Hot Pot was also founded by Yan Dongsheng, the founder of Sister Pei Hot Pot. There is little difference in the average price and taste of the two hot pot restaurants, but Dongsheng hot pot has newly developed a few dishes that Sister Pei does not have, such as hairy belly silver edge, loose plate meat and three-color meatballs, and the dining environment and utensils are also more distinctive than Sister Pei. At present, Dongsheng's popularity is not as good as Sister Pei's hot pot, and the waiting time is within 1-2 hours.
