From Central to Taipei: The Signature Appeal of BIG JJ's Hotpot
BIG JJ Seafood Hotpot opened in Central, Hong Kong in 2020, founded by Peter Pang, offering an internationalized interpretation of Hong Kong's grassroots hotpot culture. Rather than pursuing fine dining refinement, the restaurant preserves Cantopop music, neon signage, and Hong Kong-style humor, creating an atmosphere close to that of a street food stall.
To understand this pop-up collaboration, it helps to start with the 'shared hotpot' dining style: diners at the same table choose a broth together, cook beef and seafood to their liking, and pair it with small appetizers. This differs from individual courses arranged dish-by-dish by the kitchen—gathering a group and coordinating shared dining preferences are things that can be prepared before making a reservation.
Three Broths in Rotation, Layers of Flavor to Experience
This pop-up brings three of BIG JJ's classic broths: the signature pork bone and clam pot, simmered with pork bones, pork trotters, and clams for a rich blend of land and sea flavors; the mild and sweet coconut and black-bone chicken soup; and the congee-style rice-free chicken porridge, which grows thicker and creamier the longer it simmers.
The set menu is served as '珍姐揪友闔家組,' priced at NT$1,980 per person, requiring a minimum of four diners to open the pot—suitable for gatherings with friends or family. The announcement states that joining the Regent Hotels APP and obtaining a dedicated coupon unlocks additional offers, with a NT$1,000 discount plan available for weekday reservations of four or more diners; it is recommended to confirm related conditions before booking.
