I came across the name of this restaurant while searching for BBQ restaurants in the past. This time, while searching for a dinner gathering place, my cousin suggested that we come here instead. Yay, another opportunity to try out a new restaurant.
Apparently, this restaurant has quite a few locations, and all uses a different Chinese character that sounds the same.
For example, 胡同燒肉, 古月同燒肉, 壺同燒肉, 衚同燒肉, 醐同燒肉... all of these are pronounced HuTong, although they are all written with different characters.
This is a BBQ place that offered quality food at a higher price point. According to some food reviews, one can easily spend NTD$1,000/person/meal there. The service comes with price. Though you have the utensils to grill your own food, the server rotates around the tables and makes sure that the food is cooked to the right timing/temperature. All you have to do is eat and chat. I guess part of the “service” package is the “friendly” environment. The server, while cooking, is supposed to engage themselves into your conversation as well, regardless whether you like it or not. My cousins and I were chatting away about work and stuff, and they kept butting into our conversation. It’s all fun, but if you’re not the type that enjoys strangers giving you opinions on things, then maybe this isn’t the place to go.
Food selection is good. Like all BBQ places, it’s better to go in a larger group so you can try more selections.
