David’s Master Pot, Underwood
Joy – and nostalgia, if you grew up eating Chinese food – is served piping hot by the bowl at David’s Master Pot. After picking from a selection of raw meat, seafood, vegetables and more, select a soup base for your bowl of ‘malatang’, which directly translates to ‘spicy numbing soup’. Depending on what level of spiciness you choose, you’ll be set to slurp and clear your sinuses in no time.
