HuHot Mongolian Grills, L.L.C. started with a Mongolian BBQ grill called Mongos Mongolian Grill in Missoula, Montana in June 1999. Since then, the concept has proven to be very successful and the company plans to rapidly expand. The name HuHot (the ancient capital of inner-Mongolia) was chosen for future and franchised restaurants. It??s trampling old notions of full-service dining. Warming lamps and steam tables lie smashed in its wake. At HuHot, diners customize their own meals by choosing from dozens of fresh vegetables, meats, noodles and sauces.
