A Name Dubai Has Trusted for Fifteen Years

The Signature Experience

The Monk Hot Pot

01

Choose Your Broth

Begin with a fragrant base — a fiery Thai tom yum or a delicate Chinese herbal broth, brought to a gentle simmer at your table.

02

Build Your Bowl

Compose it your way — vegetarian, non-vegetarian or seafood selections, each one fresh and ready for the pot.

03

Simmer & Share

Cook at your own unhurried pace — close to ninety minutes of it — a warm, hands-on ritual made for the whole table.
