First time at a hot pot restaurant. The one here finally opened after delays we thought doomed it. No photos of the pot, because once it arrived we started eating! Some photos of some of the plates though!

You pick a soup base, sometimes as a group or like here, everyone has their own little pot. Then you start requesting the various meats, veggies, etc to put in the soup base. Those plates of meat etc are brought to the table. You then stir those into the soup base then eat when done. There was also a serve yourself dipping bar so you could make dips to put onto the meat, also where the desserts were. It's fun! It was all you can eat so just keep ordering the plates. Had to finish them though, or like a buffet you get charged for waste.
