After watching the team, I was hungry... Although the army hot pot is not a very high-tech cuisine, and some food may still sniff at its instant noodles. However, this kind of stew in a pot, all the things you want to eat in a big pot, can always bring unspeakable satisfaction. In the cold winter twelfth lunar month, I took three or five friends together to find a delicious army pan, eating the most common ingredients, but they could drink a few sips of shochu at the same time, eat some small dishes, and spend leisure time with friends in the crazy work life at the end of the year. Can not be a more warm and heart-warming choice.
