my ultimate GO-TO for a mala fix 🤤🥵

📍Wan Xing Mala Hotpot

if you’re a purple line resident you have to check this out! i think by far this place has the most fragrant, balanced mala without it being too oily, salty or msg filled (based off how thirsty i get after eating heh) and the way they cook everything just comes together very nicely 💙 i like the wide selection of ingredients and drinks here, there are 3 fridges of dishes to choose from and 2 drink fridges!🚀 prices are quite reasonable too, it ranges from $20-30 for 2pax depending on how many ingredients we take.

aside from mala they serve many familiar chinese dishes like green pepper fish and mapo tofu so feel free to add on more dishes if youre eating in a big group <3

2024/8/11 Edited to

If you’re exploring Wan Xing Mala Hotpot for the first time, here are a few tips from my experience to help you make the most of your visit. Firstly, don’t hesitate to try their mala xiang guo alongside the classic hotpot. The dry-stirred version offers a different spice experience that's equally delicious and pairs perfectly with the soup-based options. Whether you prefer a mild or fiery level of spiciness, Wan Xing allows you to customize your mala soup base to fit your taste. The menu extends beyond just mala, featuring beloved Chinese dishes like green pepper fish and mapo tofu, which are excellent additions if you're dining with friends or family. Sharing these dishes can balance the heat and add variety to your meal. One of my favorite things is the impressive selection of fresh ingredients available in their three ingredient fridges and two drink fridges. This variety ensures you can tailor your hotpot with everything from fresh vegetables to premium meats like mala beef and spicy Chinese sausage. Also, keep an eye out for their affordable pricing. You can enjoy a hearty meal for around $20-30 for two people, making it a great value for regular mala cravings. Lastly, if you’re worried about MSG or overly oily broths, Wan Xing has impressed me with their balanced seasoning that avoids excessive saltiness or oiliness, keeping the mala flavorful but not overwhelming. Next time you’re craving mala hotpot in Jurong West, Wan Xing Mala Hotpot is the place to hit up — a true gem for spicy food lovers seeking an authentic and satisfying mala experience.
