I have had a taste of Yunnan-Style Seafood Hot Pot when I was having my dinner at a Chinese steamboat restaurant this evening.

I’m used to Cantonese-style Hot Pot or steamboat but I seldom have the chance to try out regional variations such as Taiwan, China (Chongqing, Chengdu, Sichuan, Yunnan, etc.), Thailand, Vietnam and so on.

So, I had decided to try out the China style and ordered a personal set of Yunnan-style seafood Hot Pot today. The waitress told me that there was an option of adding milk to the soup. Since I wanted to try something different, I chose to have milk mixing with the soup for my order.

Yunnan-Style Seafood Hot Pot with Milk :

The ingredients include tomatoes, mushrooms, broccoli, prawns, fish slices, mussel, squids, glass noodles and crab meats. Some of these ingredients of the Yunnan-style seafood Hot Pot are not commonly seen in the Cantonese-style.

Iced Jasmine Green Tea :

The iced Jasmine green tea definitely helps to cool down the heatiness after taking the whole pot of steamy seafood Hot Pot during dinner time. I like the glass bottle which looks like a cup as well as a jar.

I feel that the taste of the Yunnan-style is more plain than that of the Cantonese-style Hot Pot. In conclusion, I still prefer the Cantonese-style to the Yunnan-style Hot Pot.
