High above Tian Mu Xi Lu, Tian Yuan Guo is a hotpot offering a personal approach to good food. It is very light and spaciously well designed.

　　Individual hotpots are provided to each diner, insuring you eat what you throw in. A perfect starter is the delicious hand shredded mixed vegetables Y18, which sets the appetite up for the main dish. Both the thinly sliced limestone beef Y35 and the sliced ox tongue Y28 is fresh enough, and unique fish and shrimp pastes boil into flavored balls Y38. Handmade noodles Y5 or the potato starch noodles Y8 combine well with a wide sellection of fresh vegetables.

　　A large bottle of Qingdao at RMB10 is reasonable, and the service was excellent.

　　Tian Yuan Guo appeals to very specific tastes - if you enjoy the communal aspect of hotpot, being able to dart in and take from a mix of several things being cooked at once, then you may find the individual pots too time consuming. But if you don't mind practicing a bit of patience while waiting for you pot of veggies and meat to boil, this is the spot for you.
