AI Summary

Doncaster East's all-you-can-eat Sichuan hotpot, with rich beef tallow broths for groups.

A buzzy, brightly lit buffet hall built for group feasting. reviewers call it lively and great for family gatherings, though the self-serve station gets cramped at peak times.

Self-serve buffet fridge for raw hotpot ingredients, QR-code ordering for sliced meats, a DIY dipping-sauce station, and a choice of broths including beef tallow, mushroom, pork bone and tomato.

Reviewers repeatedly praise the Sichuan and Chongqing-style broth as authentic, though one long-time patron notes the signature beef-tallow flavour has faded since opening.

Split reviews on value: the $32-46 all-you-can-eat deal wins praise for portion size, but add-on charges for dipping sauce, EFTPOS and the 15% weekend surcharge frustrate some diners.
