Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Guo Chang Mala Xiang Guo appears to be a local favourite in Hougang, with several long-term customers praising its affordability and taste.

Reviewers consistently highlight that the mala here is 'not salty and not oily,' which is a significant plus for those who find other mala stalls too heavy.

The general consensus points to it being a 'hidden gem' and a reliable 'go-to mala place' for many.

However, there's a notable dissenting opinion regarding pricing, with one customer claiming an $11.50 charge for a small bowl of instant noodles, egg, and tofu to be 'daylight robbery.' This suggests potential inconsistency in pricing or portioning, or a misunderstanding of their charging system.

We'd recommend clarifying the pricing structure before ordering, especially if you're selecting multiple ingredients.

Overall, it seems like a solid option for a less oily mala experience if you're in the area.

They basically do not charge according. Instant noodles, egg, toufu ann tao poh. All these for $11.50. All these easily fit in a small bow. This will be my last time eating the mala. Daylight robbery…
