Happy Lamb Hot Pot

Happy Lamb on Washington Street serves Inner Mongolian-style hot pot, with the broth doing much of the work. The restaurant’s approach starts with a long-cooked bone broth, then adds the ingredients you choose at the table. Lamb is a central part of the menu, making this a useful place to try hot pot if that’s the meat you most want to eat.

Dinner involves cooking and eating in stages, so allow time rather than treating it as a quick bowl of soup. It also gives a group something to do together between conversations. This is the Chinatown branch, separate from Happy Lamb in Cambridge and Allston. Check the local menu and meal options before booking or heading over.
