Pretty decent, the noodles were to die for and the numbing from the Szechuan peppers in the sauce made the dish fun.Good flavor. The style of spice makes the lips feel funny for a bit. Wish it was a little more filling. Was alot of fun to makeThe flavor was not what I expected at all, not yummy. The veggies were crispy and the noodles were okay, but the soup base was too spicy with no real flavor. It was like spicy wood. The self-heating element was convenient, which pushed my rating by one star. Not worth the price, calories, or time.Got this for my son for his birthday, we absolutely loved it and the spice level was great. We love spicy and it didn't disappoint.Too spicy for me. I wish they had more options with meat in them. The only non spicy was only vegetable so i didnt get it. The instructions didnt say how much water to put in the top part either. Had to add more after it was done cooking. Hopefully they have some less spicy meat varieties soon.I wanted to try something with Lotus root and this intrigued me. Wow! oh wow, it is very tasty but it has a building spiciness that takes awhile to dissipate. I've never had a hotpot but if they're like this, I'll seek them out. Very yummy.Way too spicy for me. Like it felt like it burned my mouth. Be careful adding the spicy flavoring.
