About Tan Hotpot

Bourke Street’s hub for Sichuan heat centers on a bubbling split pot and signature broth loaded with tender duck blood jelly. Tables fill with plates of marbled wagyu, sweet potato noodles, and handmade koi-shaped fish paste ready for a quick swish. Regulars pair the fiery mala burn with soothing chicken broth or a bowl of house fried rice, building sauces at the DIY condiment bar. Late diners catch the nightly half-price menu discount kicking in right at 8 PM.

  • Signature duck blood broth: The house spicy soup comes studded with soft, delicate duck blood jelly cubes alongside traditional offal cuts.
  • Multi-broth split pots: Tables can split their pot across two or three distinct soup bases to balance fiery chili heat with gentler herbal chicken or mushroom stocks.
  • Late-night half-price menu: Dining in after 8 PM unlocks a daily 50% discount across a wide selection of meats and hot pot staples.

  • Signature Duck Blood Broth

    Tan Hotpot features delicate, broth-absorbing duck blood jelly cubes in their rich signature spicy soup base.

    The duck blood jelly actually surprised me — super smooth and soaked up the broth so well.

    Guests can customize multiple soup bases in a single pot so everyone enjoys their preferred level of heat and flavor.
