Editor’s Note
Last updated 21 Jul 2026
Our take: Dashan Mala Hot Pot Zi Char, located in a Bukit Timah coffeeshop, appears to be a solid choice for mala enthusiasts.
Reviewers consistently praise the taste of their Mala Xiang Guo, noting it's spicy and delicious, with one diner spending around $17.80 for two people.
The Shandong spicy chicken, priced at $45.80 for a portion suitable for 3-4 pax with noodles, also receives positive mentions for its quality.
While the 'ma' (numbing) effect might be less pronounced for some, the 'la' (spicy) is definitely present.
We note that ingredient choices can be limited, and the quality of rice has been inconsistent.
Service is frequently highlighted as friendly, with the owner often managing operations solo.
Despite being a popular spot, especially during dinner, wait times seem to be manageable.
We'd recommend Dashan for a reliable and flavourful mala fix, particularly if you're in the Bukit Timah area and appreciate a good kick of spice.

What customers say
Dashan Mala Hot Pot Zi Char is praised for its delicious and satisfying mala dishes, with customers highlighting the tender spicy fried chicken and flavorful boiled beef.
While the mala xiang guo is generally well-received for its taste and spiciness, some find the 'ma' (numbing) effect lacking and note limited ingredient choices.
Pricing is considered reasonable by some, though the Shandong spicy chicken is noted as not cheap, and service is consistently described as friendly, often by a single dedicated operator.
