Imagine enjoying a steaming hotpot while watching your favourite movie—this unique blend of dining and cinema promises to add a new flavour to your movie nights. Picture yourself savouring a bubbling pot of soup filled with fresh meats, vegetables, and noodles, all while immersed in a cinematic experience.
Recently, Hong Kong actor Bosco Wong visited Dadi Cinema in KL to promote his latest film, The Unwavering Brotherhood. He had a sneak peek at this hotpot cinema experience, where patrons enjoyed a personal pot of hot soup and a selection of ingredients, courtesy of the popular hotpot chain Shu Da Xia.
However, the idea of a hotpot cinema hasn’t won everyone over. Some social media users have expressed concerns about the smell and the practicality of having a full meal in a theatre.
They argue that cinemas are meant for watching movies, not dining experiences.
The first ever hotpot cinema is coming soon to Dadi Cinemas Pavilion KL. #StayTune for more details #ComingSoon #DadiCinema #PavilionKL
