Bloody Mary Bar at Barkadas I am such a sucker for an interactive dining experience. I like being able to have a hand in my meal – or in this case, drink. and, I am paying to do some of the work myself, so I hope the staff likes it, too. Barkadas has introduced a bloody mary bar, where you receive a base bloody mary drink and can garnish it with a number of toppings. There's cheese and pickles and shrimp and celery. Plus some salt and peppers and salami. Did I mention it is all you can drink? It was fun and tasty alongside my chicken and waffles dish, as well. Hot Pot at East Flavor Hot Pot is a dining experience where a diners cook their own food in a simmering pot of broth at the table. At East Flavor, you are seated at a hot pot table that has a circular hot burner in front of each seat. There's a button on the front of the table to turn it on. You only have to pick your broth and protein. The rest of the accompaniments come out on a platter. I went for tomato and beef. The server brought a giant platter full of bok choy, mushrooms, taro, noodles, lotus root, corn, tofu, sausages, rice cakes and fish/beef balls. The server placed the broth on the burner, and we turned it on. And it was pretty much ready to go. He suggested starting with the beef and corn because they take the longest to cook. So, I plucked those in with my chopsticks in waited for them to cook. I alternated between adding a few items in the pot to cook, and then transferring them to my bowl along with some broth to eat from, but I also ate directly from the pot. And, I put the noodles in at the end to absorb all the remainder of the broth. I used just about all of my vegetables, except for the bok choy simply because it was so large. So, by the end, this huge pot of soup filled me right up. I didn't see additional sauces, so I'll have to check those out next time. More fun finds:
