Perhaps the most popular spot for entertainment in all of Beijing, the Sanlitun area is a great place to go for summer fun. By day, you can stroll around The Village shopping center, where you’ll find plenty of stores and restaurants. In the evening, relax with a foot massage and a pedicure before hitting Happy Hour somewhere. Once the sun goes down, this place is party central, with tons of bars and clubs, in addition to a variety of street food and drinks.

I appreciate the constructive criticism, but in this case you are wrong. “Soup” by itself is 汤, but for this particular dish, it is “麻辣烫”, which is best translated as “hot and spicy soup.” Maybe you should live in China before you correct the guy who lives here 🙂
