A hot pot restaurant that's made a splash in both Canada and the United States is opening its first downtown Toronto location. Self-described as "Canada's most famous" hot pot restaurant, B.C.-based Big Way Hot Pot might just have a legitimate claim for that title. Despite only opening its first-ever location in 2021, the self-serve hot pot restaurant has already spawned 12 locations across B.C. Big Way Hot Pot offers a unique self-serve approach to hot pot, which allows visitors to peruse over 100 different ingredients, including vegetables, premium meats, seafood, and noodles, with 10 different broth bases. Big Way Hot Pot is located at 559 Bloor St. W.
