...like the savory Black Pepper Beef Hofun. 

Not to be missed at the Asian buffet is the Taiwan style Braised Pork and Mapo Tofu, perfect with steamed white rice. Just grab a bowl, fill it with rice and generously top it with savory braised pork for a meal in itself. 

After the Asian buffet and Mongolian Bowls, it's time for the Taiwanese-style Hotpot at Champion Hotpot. The first order of business? Choose your broth. Champion Hotpot offers five specialty broths, from the spicy Mala Beef Tomato, sour and tart Tom Yum, rich and creamy Laksa, savory and sweet Sukiyaki and the popular Champion's Signature Chicken Coconut Broth.

We sampled four of the five specialty broths at Champion Hotpot with the sharp, spicy yet soothing Mala Beef Tomato and delicate flavors of the mildly sweet Champion's Signature Chicken Coconut broth...
