Popular Chinese hotpot restaurant chain opening this week in Montreal

One of the most popular Chinese hotpot chains in the world is opening in downtown Montreal this week.
Liuyishou Hotpot, which has over 1,000 locations worldwide, is a Sichuan-style buffet known for a “spicy broth made with chillies and peppercorns,” according to the chain’s press release shared with Daily Hive.
Along with its traditional beef tallow base, Liuyishou Hotspot offers options for mixed mushrooms, tomato broths, and tasty combos, including vegetables, seafood, or beef and lamb.
