Crocodile Palace's Hot Pot

Tastemaker

If you’ve never had a hot pot dinner before, think of it like fondue but with broth in place of cheese and veggies, noodles, and meats in place of bread or other dipping items. Crocodile Palace is putting their spin on the tradition on Thursdays at The Little Fleet in TC. This is a meal made for sharing, and ours easily served four (along with an order of their Smashed Cucumber Salad). Here’s what comes on your tray (could vary from week to week): rice, two types of noodles, mushrooms, bok choy, soft-boiled eggs, dumplings, fried tofu, pork, and beef. While the Croc Palace team assured us the spicy side of the broth wasn’t made with their spiciest peppers, it will still put some fire on your tongue and some sweat on your brow. This special continues all winter long, so cozy up at a table as the snow falls at 448 E Front St. in Traverse City.
