Brisbane City Comfort Food
Building a Custom Mini Hot Pot at 3 Kingdoms in Brisbane
3 Kingdoms delivers a deeply comforting city meal through its customisable mini hot pot and rich signature braised beef sweet potato noodles.
Lifting thin slices of meat, fresh lotus root, and clear noodles from a steaming bowl of broth is a wonderfully personal way to warm up in Brisbane. At 3 Kingdoms, building a custom mini hot pot lets us assemble a tailored meal from a wide variety of fresh ingredients.
Tucked away on Level A in UpTown along Queen Street, right around the corner from Target, the restaurant feels like a hidden retreat in the heart of the city. Red lanterns and wooden partitions give the dining space a warm, relaxed atmosphere as you step inside.

The meal expands across the table with a vibrant selection of accompanying sides. Cubes of Sichuanese tofu garnished with fresh coriander and sesame seeds sit alongside crisp cucumber salad, marinated pork trotters, and tender marinated beef.

Tailored Hot Pot Broth and Chewy Noodles
The standout of our visit was the signature braised beef sweet potato noodles. Dark, wonderfully chewy sweet potato strands soak up a rich soup filled with tender sliced beef and fresh green leafy vegetables, giving every bite a satisfying depth of flavour.
Creating our own mini hot pot alongside the noodles allowed us to customise the experience completely. Selecting thin sliced meat, lotus root slices, meatballs, and fresh herbs into a clear broth creates a hot pot bowl tailored precisely to what you feel like on a cool day.
Accompanying Sides and Table Spread
The meal expands across the table with a vibrant selection of accompanying sides. Cubes of Sichuanese tofu garnished with fresh coriander and sesame seeds sit alongside crisp cucumber salad, marinated pork trotters, and tender marinated beef.
Paired with herbal drinks, the complete spread makes for a comforting and well-rounded feast. Whether you come for a quick bowl of signature sweet potato noodles or build a feast from scratch, 3 Kingdoms offers a genuinely satisfying city warm-up.
