Lao Di Fang

Located on 51st Street, the kitchen caters to late-night appetites with a menu featuring dry hot pot and soups. Diners can choose their preferred type and level of spice, building out their bowls with additions like lamb slices, pig blood, and enoki mushrooms. The experience is notably affordable, paired with straightforward, reliable service. While the cooking relies on cultural recipes, execution can occasionally vary, with some dishes like the fish drawing critique for being overly salty.
