My daughter and son-in-law took my wife and me to Happy Lamb Hot Pot restaurant in Naperville, IL for my birthday lunch. My daughter and I share our birthdays on the same day!
Happy Lamb Hot Pot is one of the few hotpot restaurants in the Chicago area and it did not disappoint. Lots of meat and veggies for the all you can eat option. You can also get predetermined hotpot ingredients, but we decided we wanted to pick what we wanted.
We only ordered once and it was enough. We had a lot of ingredients and I left there quite full. We had everything from lamb, beef, various meatballs, fishballs, quail eggs and more. It kept me busy eating and cooking in the hotpot.
I would have liked it better if the restaurant had a grill alongside the hotpot, but I suppose that's more for the Korean BBQ fans. Still, the soup bases we chose were good. We had a tomato based soup on one side and a spicy soup base for the other. The spicy was loaded with hot peppers and garlic. I was burping that up all day!
It's expensive, but it was fun. I'm not sure I would on my own... instead, hotpot is designed as a social event, so be sure to go with a group of people. I think no more than four people to a table makes the most sense.
Thanks to my daughter and son-in-law for the lunch! Afterwards, we went back to their place and I received a very nice gift which I will do a video on later!
