Editor’s Note

Last updated 21 Jul 2026

Our take: 國昌 Mala Xiang Guo consistently earns praise for its affordability and robust flavours.

Reviewers frequently highlight the generous portions and the ability to customise spice levels, though some find the 'zhongla' (medium spicy) lacking in numbing sensation.

The 水煮鱼 (Sichuan boiled fish) is also a standout, noted for being piping hot and well-spiced, even for children.

We appreciate the consistent feedback on the friendly service, with staff reportedly remembering customer preferences over time.

While lunch can be busy, the evenings are generally quieter, offering a more relaxed dining experience.

The option to use CDC vouchers is a plus for local diners.

We'd recommend this spot for a reliable and budget-friendly mala fix, especially if you're looking for a less crowded environment in the evenings.

Be specific with your spice level, as 'zhongla' might not deliver the expected numbing kick for some.

What customers say

國昌 Mala Xiang Guo is highly regarded for its affordable and flavourful mala, with many customers praising the customizable spice levels and the option for less oil.

The establishment is also noted for its friendly and attentive staff who remember customer preferences, and for offering other well-received dishes like 水煮鱼 and sour shredded potato.

While generally not crowded, some patrons have found the 'zhongla' spice level to be less potent than expected, lacking the desired numbing sensation.
