Paper Salt River Wharf Hot Pot is located on the city balcony of Hongya Cave, sitting on the best viewing angle of Hongya Cave, overlooking the rushing water of the Jialing River, and looking at the night lights of the Qianguomen Bridge by the railing, if you want to enjoy the night view of Chongqing while eating hot pot, here is the best choice for diners.
The bottom of the pot of Paper Salt River is not prominent, and the bottom of the red soup pot is mainly fried with Guizhou bullet pepper and Hanyuan peppercorn, but due to the insufficient amount of butter, the bottom of the pot is slightly thin, and the saltiness is serious in the later stage of cooking, and it needs to be relieved by adding soup many times.
Compared to the mediocre pot bottom, the dishes of Paper Salt River are much higher-quality. The dishes served are similar in size and neatly arranged, and it is almost impossible to find fault with the appearance alone. The spicy beef is made of fat and lean brisket, marinated in dried chili noodles in advance, which is tender and smooth in the mouth, and has a long chili aroma. The texture is thicker than that of ordinary hairy tripe, and the taste is more crispy. Bean sprouts noodles are half sprouts and half noodles, Chongqing noodles are elastic and tough, no matter which pot is boiled, the taste will not be too bad, however, because the noodles are easy to mix with soup after cooking, it is best to put them in the pot near the end of the meal.
The interior of the hot pot restaurant is quaint, with different areas separated by carved windows, and there are many clay pottery and magnetic decorations in the corners. In 2017, Paper Salt River opened a new flagship store on Guanyinqiao 9th Street, and through the restaurant's large floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the people coming and going of the 9th Street Night Market, which is another scene. The restaurant service needs to be improved, the attitude of the service staff is perfunctory, and during the peak period, the customers need to urge the customers to serve the food and add the soup. Hongyadong Main Store has a huge flow of customers, so if you want to sit in a scenic position to eat, it is best to book in advance.
