Hot Pot Central sets up shop on 2nd Avenue and 12th Street



New Hot Pot Central signage went up on Saturday evening, as this photo via EVG reader Harry Weiner shows...

The restaurant on the southeast corner of Second Avenue and 12th Street emerged as DumplingGuo back in August ... after a revamp of the Dumpling Go space.

Not sure if the Hot Pot Central/DumplingGuo ownership is the same ... In any event, HPC, which is open for business, is currently hiring...



... and filming a documentary...

    I asked one of their waiters and they told me it's the same owner.

    So they'll have two failed restaurants in 6 months? We had Peak Ramen, we're fast approaching Peak Dumpling and soon it'll be Peak Hotpot.

    Judging by the amount of people in the Second Ave location I wouldn't write this one off just yet.

    I hated them for opening a dumpling place so close to other established dumpling places. Thankfully, that idea tanked. It was always empty. The few times I've walked by the new location? It's been packed. Either they ran a successful groupon to try to get people in or it's really good.
