Hot Pot for Lunar New Year Fun
Big Way Hot Pot has taken the Lower Mainland by storm. Three years old and nine locations strong, there’s a wave of demand for dinner that is stress-free, personalized, cooked to perfection, and right in your neighbourhood. Their West End location at 1479 Robson Street is hopping with friends, food, and fun, from lunch through to the wee-morning hours.
Your Hot Pot, Exactly Your Way
Hot pot is a Lunar New Year classic, straight from China. Reunion dinners, bringing family and friends together to celebrate, are part of the tradition. We asked Big Way Hot Pot’s Chief Brand Officer, Christiana Luo, about the secret to the local chain’s stunning popularity.
“Our flavours are amazing, our restaurants have a casual vibe, and when you come in, you know you’re going to get exactly the meal you’ve been looking forward to. Whether you like big portions or small, heavy on the meat choices, or you’re all about going vegetarian — you get to design the hot pot you want,” Luo said.
“Each diner builds a unique hot pot from over 100 fresh ingredients and chooses from 10 delicious broths or our dry mix flavours. You can customize your spice level. We also have Happy Hour specials weekdays before 5pm. Once you’ve selected your hot pot ingredients, our chefs cook everything to perfection, and your meal is served to your table. Every meal comes with a free soft serve cone and our West End location is licensed to serve alcohol, as well.”
Your Favourite Broth — and Everyone Else’s, Too
Big Way Hot Pot goes all out for Lunar New Year, with red envelope surprises for lucky diners. Luo told us, “Our style of hot pot is easy for a large group, because everyone gets what they want, and the bill is individually calculated when each hot pot is crafted. Our style of hot pot is family-friendly, healthy, fast, customizable, and affordable. We’re also known for our spiked bobas. And who doesn’t like a free dessert to top off a great meal!”
Big Way’s classic bone broth is simmered for eight hours, and their tangy tomato broth is popular, too. Fresh vegetables, meat, seafood, paired with a wide selection of noodles (rice, egg, spinach, ramen) or a side of rice — hot pot is a nutritious lunch, dinner, or late-night meal. Premium meats, like thinly slice ribeye, pork belly, deluxe lamb, sliced fish, as well as shellfish like scallops, prawns, and mussels, mean your hot pot flavours work together for delicious perfection.
Endless Flavour Combinations & Gift Dessert
Finishing off with a signature sweet charcoal cone means there’s delight from the start of your custom meal right to the end. Big Way Hot Pot makes a traditional family meal fast and efficient, while offering unlimited individual customization, perfect proportions, chef-quality cooking and preparation, and carefree fun with friends and family. Come in for a celebration of good food and Lunar New Year’s best traditions, this month and throughout the year.
