## How to choose
- Decide between buffet (fixed price, time limit usually 90–120 minutes) and à la carte (pay per plate, better meat quality). Buffets suit big eaters; à la carte suits small groups who want premium cuts.
- Count the extras: soup base, sauce bar, rice, drinks and wet towels are often separate line items.
- Ask whether broth is MSG-free or can be made less spicy – mala levels vary widely between chains.
- Late-night options are common; many hotpot chains open past midnight, but confirm last order times.
- For halal hotpot, check the specific outlet on the MUIS directory – a Muslim-owned or 'pork-free' restaurant is not necessarily certified.

## FAQs
### How much is Haidilao per person in Singapore?
Expect roughly $50–80 per person before service charge and GST, based on MoneySmart's 2024 estimate. Everything is à la carte: a soup base starts around $13, the sauce bar is about $4 per diner, and premium meats like wagyu cost $28–108 a plate. Haidilao cut some soup base prices in March 2025, so check the current menu.

### What does "++" mean on a Singapore menu?
"++" means a 10% service charge and 9% GST will be added. GST is charged on the service charge too, so the multiplier is 1.1 × 1.09 = 1.199 – a $50++ meal costs about $59.95. IRAS lets restaurants that levy a service charge show pre-GST prices, but they must state prominently that prices are subject to GST and service charge.

### Is there halal hotpot in Singapore?
Yes, some hotpot and steamboat restaurants are MUIS halal-certified. Certification is per outlet, so verify the exact branch on the MUIS Certified Eating Establishments list or the MuslimSG app, and look for the original certificate on display.
