A memory of a recent past meal i had was when i was eating outside with friends. We went to hotpot. Hotpot is like everyone throwing in things in one boiling pot and then taking it out, putting it in you’re own dipping sauce. The most fun part of it is sharing the food and everyone sitting together like a warming gathering. I remeber we had a pot of tomato base and spicy base. I like cooking beef and noodles in the pot along with some vegetables. I love spicy so i cooked it in the spicy base. I remember it being really spicy that day but my sesame oil dipping eased it a lot. It was a friend’s birthday gathering and it was significant to me as we havent been able to gather with everyone in the friend group present in such a long time.

I like how you explain how you explain very clearly that you like hotpot because it is like a friends gathering. It is fun because you are cooking your own food, where you put a bunch of food you like in a pot full of flavor broth. Would eat it by yourself? I can relate to how eating with a group of friends is fun. It is the atmosphere and the little chats that make the present memorable
Having hotpot with friends or families is always the best way to enjoy all you can eat because gathering together you would eat more than going to hotpot alone. There’s a difference that relates to the essay in class that we read about how food gathers families together and lets the food do all the talking, and expressing feelings, and is a good way for people to catch up on their loved ones.
I love having a hotpot like you do and having hotpot together with friends/family gather up all of together because there are places that we eat in the same pot, and how we can put different food inside the pot, it is one of the traditions in my household.
How was your first hotpot? Was it what you thought it would be like?
This is a great memory. I can see how this would be enjoyable. Sharing a hotpot is an excellent way to bond with friends/family.
