You can choose to order a la carte, but if you’re feeling especially ravenous, then go for their Hot Pot Buffet, which is just $29.80++ per person on weekdays and $30.80++ on weekends. For starters, Le Le Pot has nine soup bases to choose from. Soup bases are $6 per pot, and you’ll get to choose two of them to cook with. Play it safe with familiar flavours such as Herbal Chicken Soup and Tomato Soup, or opt for the signature Tom Yam Soup and a lesser-seen Coconut Chrysanthemum Soup.  20 Best Hotpot Restaurants In Singapore, Including Steamboat Buffets Once you’ve settled on your broth, it’s time to fill out your order sheet.
