Marinated soft bone pork ribs – savoury pork ribs marinated with chilli and spices. Meat with soft bone is well marinated and has a bite to it.
Lean pork with enoki – tender shabu pork slices with enoki. Has an umami flavour and tenderised texture.
Beef with pickled green bell chilli – intense flavours balanced by the pickled green bell chilli. Hot, tangy and savoury all at once. Must try for the kick!
Up the tanginess with some pickled sweet radish and spicy chilli oil.
Vannamei prawns – sweet, crunchy and as fresh as it can get. These are one of the items you have to try when you are there. Enjoy lots of head butter too if you are shelving your diet plans for the day. These are considered 2 sticks for each prawn.
DIY your own condiments for the skewers.
Extra pure sesame oil is included in the sauce. Feel free to make your own garlic chilli sesame oil dip.
Enhance the sweet prawn with the in-house sesame oil, cut chilli padi and parsley. The best way to enjoy these prawns. These are good size prawns too and not shrimps!
Chicken / beef with parsley – the flavourful marinated meat with the aroma of crushed parsley is delightful.
Add a nutty, beany and spicy dimension to the beef /chicken parsley skewer with the in house chilli sauce and bean paste.
Japanese Hotate – love these scallops with the chewy fins. These are not marinated, you are free to cook them in Mala or the non spicy soup and eat them with some sweet soya sauce like in a conveyor belt sushi chain.
DIY your own mala dry chilli at their condiment station. Several types of dried chilli pepper and spices are grounded to create this dry chilli dip.
Braised mid wings – these are braised with five spices in dark soya sauce. Melt in your mouth skin with fall off the bones flesh. These are considered 2 sticks for each mid wing.
Unusual charcoal dough stick and Chinese dough stick to soak up the chicken soup or mala. The charcoal dough stick is available in limited quantity daily. It has a smoked flavour to it and is an acquired taste. Try it if you are feeling adventurous, or stick to the usual Chinese dough stick to be on the safe side.
The portion for a stick of green is considered generous. Fresh crisp green like spinach, sweet corn cobs, fried yam cubes and shiitake mushroom are some of the hot favourite here.
They also have all kinds of sausage here. Taiwan crunchy sausages, chicken franks hotdogs and the dense chewy Chinese lap cheong.
How about some exotic braised pork innards, braised intestines, pork stomach, beef tripes and some phoenix feets?
Pork intestines – cook these chocolatey innard bits for a longer time, so you get to enjoy the soft melt in mouth parts infused with the goodness of mala soup.
Oozing cheese tofu? Tofu with cheese centre sounds like a good idea in chicken soup.
You can have a meat galore here. Pork, chicken, beef prepared with different marinade. The soup base is thick, immensely flavourful and fragrant too.
