I remember the first time I had HaiDiLao was back in 2011 in Shanghai. It was the most happening hotpot during that period because they had just opened and good service was a novel idea back then too - typical Chinese restaurants servers would ask you to get your own stuff or just plain rude to the point where we wldn’t know to laugh or to cry.

But I have digressed. So the first time I had HDL was actually a home delivery because the queue in the restaurant was crazy long. It was 元宵 and my shanghai gang decided to gather to celebrate and have steamboat. I remember being very impressed with HDL delivery service because they provided EVERYTHING - from the pot to table cloth to the aprons to gloves to even a dustbin! And they will come back a few hours later to clear everything away.

So I was delighted when HDL came to SG a few years after I’m back. The details to service is still the same and the quality of food still good. To me, HDL is synonymous to happy gatherings with friends where we would leave the restaurant feeling warm, contented, and full in our souls and bellies 😍♥️✨
