Guangzhou | Jiumudi Beef Hotpot

You don't have to go to Chaoshan to enjoy the freshest beef. Fresh beef is delivered daily within 90 minutes of being chilled, with two deliveries per day. The freshness is truly impressive. Qinchuan Freshly Cut Beef With its own cattle ranch in Ningxia, they use 2-3 year old Qinchuan cattle to ensure quality. The freshness is visible to the naked eye, with each part freshly cut and taken. Personally, I think the slightly fatty parts taste even better. Besides the outstanding beef, this place is like a mini supermarket. You can push a small cart and choose from a variety of items in the freezer: oysters, large shrimp, beef brisket, bullfrogs. Pick whatever you like and enjoy the freshness.
