3. Hot pot 火鍋

Born in Southwest China's Sichuan and Chongqing provinces, hot pot is now almost everywhere in China.
火鍋誕生于中國西南的四川和重慶，但如今在中國已是遍地開花。

With plates of meat, vegetables, and whatever raw foods that consumers choose served on tables, the strongly-flavored, oily but mouthwatering dish easily cheers people up at late night gatherings regardless of the season.
食客選好的肉、蔬菜和生食一盤盤地擺在桌上，等待被倒入味道濃烈、熱油滾滾的火鍋湯底中，變成讓人垂涎欲滴的美食。無論春夏秋冬，火鍋都能在夜深人靜時讓人暖胃暖心。
