Viral chicken hotpot taking over the internet comes from one of China's top food cities

Recently, one pot of chicken has been sweeping Chinese social media. And our protagonist is he — Lao Mo. He runs a small chicken hotpot eatery in Foshan, a city in southern China.

It all started with a visit from a top food influencer whose video went viral. The chicken is tender, juicy, and slightly crispy. It's even considered to offer health benefits. In Guangdong, there's a saying: "A good chicken should taste like chicken." And Lao Mo's chicken delivers.

The funny part is, Lao Mo once said, "Don't make me too popular. I can't handle the rush." But it was already too late. Now people from across China are flocking here to try it.
