But other than these dishes, Specialty Spicy Beef, Handmade Shrimp Paste, Handmade Meatballs, and Spicy Deep Fried Pork.\u00a0 On top of the 10 bowls, there is also a plate of AAA short rib, a vegetable &amp; mushroom platter, and specialty handmade noodle that comes with the combo. The combo is only $58 and it can feed 2-4 people.

However, it could be pretty spicy.\u00a0 You can also find non-spicy soups like <strong>Ginseng Chicken<\/strong>, <strong>Pickled Radish &amp; Duck<\/strong>, <strong>Fresh Tomato<\/strong>, and <strong>Pork Bone Broth<\/strong>\u00a0on the menu.\u00a0 We ordered both the Traditional Chonqing and the Ginseng Chicken soups and it cost us $24.
