3 Hot Pot Spots in Tsim Sha Tsui Serving Trendy and Unique Flavors

People in Tsim Sha Tsui love hot pot. Even on hot days, many will turn on the air conditioning and enjoy a steaming pot indoors. (By the way, “hot pot” here refers to all kinds of nabemono dishes.) With its own diverse hot pot variations, the Tsim Sha Tsui area is home to restaurants serving distinctive and creative versions. Let’s take a look at some recommended hot pot spots in Tsim Sha Tsui.

1. Jing Jing Yat Seung

In recent years, “steam hot pot” has become a boom in Hong Kong. Rather than boiling the ingredients like in a traditional hot pot, they are quickly steamed, locking in all the natural flavors. One of the most popular and always fully booked restaurants for this style in Tsim Sha Tsui is Jing Jing Yat Seung. Special steaming equipment is installed at each table, and staff will place the meat, seafood, or vegetables into the steamer, cover it, and cook it for you.
After enjoying the rich, concentrated taste of fish or meat with the excess fat steamed away, there’s a final treat. By the time you finish eating, a porridge will have been cooked in the lower tier of the steamer, infused with the drippings and flavors of the ingredients above — the perfect way to end the meal.
There are four set courses, which you choose when making your reservation. Drinks are charged separately. Reservations are essential due to its popularity. While there is also a branch on Austin Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, it’s in a building that’s hard to find, so the main Jordan branch is recommended.

2. Budaoweng Chinese & Japanese Hot Pot – Tsim Sha Tsui Branch

Located on the 23rd floor of iSQUARE, directly connected to Tsim Sha Tsui Station, Budaoweng offers unbeatable convenience and an exceptional view of Victoria Harbour. It’s a bit more expensive than other hot pot places, but such a prime location is rare in Tsim Sha Tsui.
The variety of soups is impressive, with choices like winter melon broth for those who don’t enjoy spicy flavors. Among the many ingredients, the shrimp dumplings come highly recommended — they’re packed with shrimp. Another must-try hot pot item here is the Hong Kong–style deep-fried bean curd skin rolls. Dip them briefly into the broth for just a few seconds, then eat them right away for the best texture.

3. Tack Hsin Hot Pot Seafood Restaurant

The third pick, Tack Hsin Hot Pot Seafood Restaurant, offers a fusion of Asian and Chinese flavors, perfectly suited to the diverse, international vibe of Tsim Sha Tsui. Travelers familiar with Southeast Asian food might know satay — skewers served with a peanut-based sauce that’s both sweet and rich. Here, they’ve adapted that flavor into a Chinese-style satay soup base. It may feel unusual at first, but you’ll likely find it addictive as you go. A variety of condiments are also provided, so you can adjust the taste to your liking.
Among the seafood items, the shrimp balls are a highlight. This restaurant even offers xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) and wontons as hot pot ingredients. There’s also a clear pork-based broth available, and you can try both in a set — a treat for food lovers.
Located in the eastern part of Tsim Sha Tsui, in an area lined with luxury hotels, it sits just across the plaza from The Royal Garden Kowloon Hotel. For ease, tell the taxi driver the hotel name.

◎ Summary

For people in Hong Kong, hot pot is a social dish enjoyed in groups, regardless of the season. The local style is to cook vegetables until very soft, while meats and seafood are cooked only lightly before eating. When enjoying hot pot in Tsim Sha Tsui, why not follow the Hong Kong way and experience it like a local?
