The new Chinese restaurant serves chicken-shmaltz rice and broths made with tripe and oxtail.
The new Chinese restaurant Ben Ben Hot Pot, which opened in Berkeley in spring 2024, serves chicken-shmaltz rice and soup bases made with tripe and oxtail. Fans of all-you-can-eat dining — and who isn’t? — have an interesting new option in Berkeley with the debut of Ben Ben Hot Pot.
First, the soup bases: Ben Ben is really promoting its pork tripe and chicken version, which comes default not-spicy, but there’s also an ox-tail base, a beef-rib base and a Golden Palace Fish Maw and Chicken base. Some of these can be made spicy or half-half mixed. Prices range from $28.99 to $49.99 per person for the special Golden Palace broth, which may seem like a chunk of change until you consider the all-you-can-eat aspect.
And then it’s condiment time. Ben Ben has an extensive add-on bar with various sauces both savory and spicy, plus things like peanuts, sesame, chilis, scallions, cilantro and ginger. The restaurant does not yet have a liquor license, but there are regular drinks like soda and tea.
