Haidilao Self-heating hot pot(3 flavor availalbe) (New Tomato)

Item came arrived very quickly...in perfect shape and exactly as advertised. High quality ingredients, heating and soup bowl, spoon and chop sticks. Super easy to use as you have probably already read...add all the truly VERY VERY nice and fresh looking ingredients ( 4 sperate packages - no dry dehydrated stuff .. only very tasty fresh ingredients you can literally eat right out of the package if you wanted ) put them the white bowl then add a little water to the line on the bowl and mix around nicely to blend the suace.Then add water to the black bowl to the line in the bowl - not very much- and open the self heating pack and set it in the water. Then put the white bowl in the black bowl and put on the lid to keep the heat in. Within about a minute you see steam coming out of the vent of the lid. After 15 minutes - I waited 17 .. open the lid and you have a big bowl of delicious hot pot meal. You can leave the white bowl in the black bowl to eat it..the little water in the bottom of the heating bowl is pretty much gone or obsorbed into the heating pack.It tastes really nice...it has a fresh home cooked flavor that makes you want to eat every drop - everything is quality and actually looks like it was just prepared from fresh ingredients. I immediately ordered another one with a different flavor and I will keep buying them.NOTE: The chopsticks are nice quality and they come in two pieces ( to be able to fit in the package) and you just snap them together... they are so nice you can wash them and use them over.

I actually really love this product! I was very skeptical of this product at first, however, when I tried this, I ended up really loving it! So easy to make, taste fantastic! Came with noodles, pickled vegetables, and the soup base to eat! I will be buying more of these and will try to add more options into the pot to make my experience even better like easily adding protein. Really enjoyed how hot the soup was after it was ready to be consumed. Really thought it was going to be lukewarm or extremely hot, but it came out perfect in my opinion! Everyone needs to know about this product! Would be a great item to bring with me if I were to go camping or something! Wonder what else I could I can add or bring this to.

This arrived quickly. The instructions are easy to follow and the soup was ready in the expected time. I was sure a bit at the oiliness of the broth. The veggies were crisp and flavorful and the noodles cooked up well. I did add a bit of vinegar as it was just too tomato forward for me but overall this was a nice meal.

Product doesn’t even get hot. You need to put hot water and if you are lucky you’ll get a decent temperature. Not worth use it. I took it to a field trip I ended up eating uncooked cold soup. 🤦🏻‍♀️

The noodles and vegetables themselves are good. The chopsticks included don't hold onto anything that well. The hotpot base however, it's essentially watered down (very) oily tomato soup. My stomach was killing me the rest of the night after eating it. I ended up upchucking the next morning and the only thing that came up was the base. So just like the title says, sensitive stomachs beware.

Be aware that this is not fine to eat if you have a Sufite allergy/sensitivity or if you are on a reduced sodium diet as one of these is double a normal recommended daily intake of sodium.If none of those are a concern, and you don't mind the inflated price, these are great and you should try it at least once. If you enjoy it, and like very spicy food, also give their spicy version a try.

The tomato broth comes out smooth with no chunks. The taste is very similar to a thin tomato soup but with more of a sweetness to it. I was pleasantly surprised by how good the lotus root was, especially since it was my first time trying it. I strongly prefer this flavor over the spicy one. It was worth the $15.

If I’m being completely honest, wasn’t all that good, everything including packaging was perfect, taste wise, like tomato soup but it’s not adding flavor to the actual ingredients. Oily and bland is the best way to describe it, won’t be ordering again but it was a nice little experience.
