I had noticed Black Knight Hotpot at MBS many months ago when the premises was under renovation but it's only when I saw @jiax22's Instagram Story recently that a visit was triggered.
There is no doubt this hotpot restaurant from Taiwan is pricey - their 2-soups-in-1-pot alone costs $48++. If you are however, partial to rich, flavourful soups, you may be interested to know they justify it by serving their soups fully rich and deeply flavourful from the get-go.
We had the "Taro with Spare Ribs" together with the "Spicy". The former contained a generous amount of yam, spare ribs and cabbage while the latter had big cubes of "frozen" tofu and beef tendon. Both soups were opaque from the plentiful ingredients used.
There's a pretty impressive list of items for cooking. I thought the prices for those weren't too far off from similar restaurants. To give you an idea, here's what we had: Snowflake Wagyu Beef ($38++), Okinawa Black Pork Belly ($28++), Fish Paste ($18++), Mixed Vegetable Platter ($14++). The pot of hot chrysanthemum tea cost us $10++.
Black Knight offers cooked dishes as well and even have a page in their menu devoted to rice and noodles (I read somewhere their Taiwan Braised Beef Noodles is very good). So you can always skip the hotpot if you don't fancy it.
Service was decent but nothing particularly outstanding.
