吃肉就吃肉多多 / When it comes to meat, it's gotta be Meaty Hot Pot!

肉多多火鍋是一間台灣CP值算是高的火鍋連鎖品牌，就像它的名字，非常適合食量大或是肉食主義的人來吃，之後就常聽說，只要是顧客在生日期間來店用餐的話，店家就會送一個看起來蠻驚人的肉蛋糕，店家把切片的火鍋肉片，中間用壓克力作為底座，把火鍋肉片疊成一座蛋糕的形狀，很多網紅或ㄧ般民眾們，都會拍照、打卡或上傳肉蛋糕，很高明的行銷手段，不過，每個人一年一次的生日時，臨時無法決定要去哪裡慶祝生日的話，到肉多多用餐，拿個生日優惠是個還可以的選擇。

最近天氣真的好冷，只要天氣一變冷，熱門的火鍋店就會很難訂位，燈會期間，西門町的人潮更多，我和朋友在行人徒步區漫步時，抬頭看到肉多多的招牌，想去肉多多碰一下運氣，看看是否有空位，可以用餐，我們運氣還算不錯，店內還有空位，而且用餐空間還算舒服，於是我們就點了個鴛鴦鍋，一個麻辣鍋底，一個羊肉鍋底，這種天就是要吃辣的，不過，假如實在是無法吃太辣的話，還有羊肉鍋可以吃些清淡的。

店內有提供自助吧，有多達35種以上火鍋料可以取用，醬料的種類也非常多，不過我都是以醬油、沙茶、香油跟蔥花為主，可惜，現在的火鍋店多不提供生雞蛋，供客人調配醬汁，牛肉片蘸上生雞蛋漿及醬料後，吃進嘴裡，有提升作用，口感更好，主食的部分常見的泡麵、鍋燒麵、刀削麵等，朋友很喜歡吃火鍋店的麵，他喜歡吃吸飽火鍋湯底的麵條，聽他說，味道會有更多層次，比一般的麵好吃多了，我的話，就是來吃肉片及火鍋料的，澱粉類的會佔據我胃的空間，堅決不嚐試。

我們肉食的話，點的是最基本的牛肉片、豬肉片及小雞腿，比較起來，麻辣鍋底還是比較棒，火鍋料只要下麻辣鍋後，撈起來後，都特別好吃，基本上，不太需要火鍋醬料，缺點是，太辣的話，需要用飲料來緩減辣度，飲料機的部分，咖啡機、飲料機到冰沙機都有，不過，冰品的品項不太多，但是，我不太吃甜點，所以，對我而言，還好，整體來說體驗非常好，除了印象中的超大肉盤外，還多了吃到飽的自助吧，真的是CP值蠻高的一家火鍋連鎖店。

Meaty Hot Pot Hotpot is a Taiwanese hotpot chain known for its high value for money. Just like its name suggests, it's perfect for those with big appetites or meat lovers. I've heard that during customers' birthdays, the restaurant gives out a pretty impressive meat cake. They stack slices of hotpot meat in the shape of a cake using acrylic as a base. Many influencers and regular folks alike take photos, check in, or upload pictures of the meat cake, which is a clever marketing tactic. But if you're undecided about where to celebrate your birthday at the last minute, going to Meaty Hot Pot and snagging a birthday deal is a decent option.

The weather has been really cold lately, and whenever it gets chilly, it's tough to book a table at popular hotpot spots. Especially during the Lantern Festival, there's even more crowd in Ximending. While strolling through the pedestrian area with my friends, we spotted the sign of Meaty Hot Pot and decided to try our luck. Fortunately, there was still space inside, and the dining area was quite comfortable. So, we ordered a combination pot with one side being spicy and the other side with lamb broth. It's the kind of weather where you crave something spicy. However, if you can't handle too much spice, the lamb broth side offers a milder option.

They have a self-service bar with over 35 different hotpot ingredients, and there's a wide variety of sauces too. Personally, I stick to soy sauce, satay sauce, sesame oil, and chopped scallions. Unfortunately, many hotpot places nowadays don't provide raw eggs for customers to mix their sauce, which enhances the flavor when you dip beef slices into the egg mixture and sauce. As for staples, they offer common choices like instant noodles, vermicelli, and knife-cut noodles. My friend loves eating noodles at hotpot places; he enjoys how they absorb the flavors of the broth, making them tastier than regular noodles. As for me, I'm here for the meat slices and hotpot ingredients. Starchy foods just take up space in my stomach, so I don't bother with them.

For our meat selections, we went for the basics: beef slices, pork slices, and chicken legs. Comparatively, the spicy broth is better, and all the hotpot ingredients taste delicious once they've been cooked in it. Generally, you don't really need hotpot sauces because everything tastes great on its own after cooking in the spicy broth. The downside is, if it's too spicy, you'll need some drinks to cool down the heat. They have coffee machines, drink dispensers, and even a slushie machine, but the selection of ice cream is not extensive. However, since I'm not much of a dessert person, it doesn't bother me much. Overall, the experience was excellent. Besides the impressive giant meat platter, they also offer an all-you-can-eat self-service bar, making it a hotpot chain with great value for money.
