Soupleaf Hot Pot shares Chinese cooking Since 2022, Soupleaf Hot Pot has shared the culture and hospitality of Chinese dining. A family a air Jin Lin and her family opened Soupleaf three years ago. At the time, Nelson Lin, co-owner and one of Jin’s sons said Soupleaf was the only hot pot place in Austin. Hot pot is a cooking method in which food is cooked in boiling broth at one’s table. Lin said an easy way to think about it is as “Chinese fondue.” “The food is way fresher, comes right out to you, and you get to know what you put in your bowl,” Lin said. What’s next The Lin family will be opening an all-you-can- eat soup and salad concept, Soup and Leaves, in Plaza 183 next year.
Patrons order their choice of broth and meats at the table before choosing extras from the bu et.
Soupleaf o ers a variety of meats, seafood, veggies, noodles and more for customers to cook at their table.
