Hot Pot is  a favourite with Thais where few farang go. Consequently always worth a visit. They often specialise in fresh seafood which you choose/select yourself then cook at your own table often ' broiling' in a large soup pan with plenty of herbs and greens added.

Yeah, I was using similar things twenty years ago here, although more commonly with pork meat. Usually like someone else to do the cooking when I eat out, and most non-AC places are hot enough without that thing bubbling on the table.

Hot pot is Chinese

So what, this isn't about the history of hot pot, or of China
