An Authentic Sichuan Hot Pot Restaurant in the Western Suburbs
A sleek Scandi-style fit-out from design mavens Hecker Guthrie helps RuYi stand out from the pack, as does the produce-driven pride in the mostly classic Canto dishes given a modern twist. The likes of sang choi bao and Peking duck are cut down to canapé-size, all the better to taste more of the menu, while bigger-ticket items include wagyu oyster blade lavished with a hit of truffle paste and a wealth of fungi. Occasionally, your server may bring over a pitcher of broth and replenish your pot with it.
It’s packed with flavour and the texture is a beautiful light al dente. Whichever soup you choose, keep the broth a little diluted to start – as the night goes on and more of the ingredients gets cooked in the soup, it will become richer and more flavourful naturally, so don’t start it off too salty. If you are going for a pre-made soup, still start the stock with some fresh ingredients to add a little richness to get flavour from the first bite. Pop in some mushrooms, 麻辣烫 Chinese cabbage and a handful of aromatics like garlic and shallots. I also like to put in the ingredients that benefit from a longer time in the stock to soak up the flavour, like hard tofu, bean curd or Konnyaku knots to get the ball rolling. Some families like to create their own mix, starting with the chicken soup base and adding ingredients like aromatics , shitake mushroom, white radish… but honestly, the pre-made stuff is just as amazing and so much simpler.
