I was chatting with a group of friend in an English club yesterday. I talked about my experience of traveling to Beijing and ate the Beijing hotpot there. We've already talked about Chongqing hotpot (spicy and peppery) for a while.
Sherry: I know that Beijing ones are different from Chongqing hotpot dishes.
Silver: Right, I went there in 2013 and ate in a restaurant. The waiter brought a big wok then added boiling water into it, then he added some spices like green onion, ginger, anise, cinnamon, etc. Then they gave me and my mom a small plate of sesame paste.
Rosa: Yeah, almost like that. And the next step is "Dip the mutton in the soup for seven seconds and then go with the sesame paste".
Silver: Right.
The intended meaning of the italic sentence is "Dip the mutton in the soup and wait for seven seconds then the mutton will ripe and then eat it with some sesame paste".
Is the italic sentence okay?
