By: Cherelle Lim / November 1, 2023

You know that itch you get when you’re craving something spicy? Yeah, sometimes it gets super specific. Like craving asam laksa from a specific shop back in your hometown. Or spicy Samyang noodles at 2am. So where do you go when you’re craving mala xiang guo? Well if you don’t know, Glitz has got you covered. Here are the best places to satiate your mala xiang guo cravings for good.

Best Mala Xiang Guo You HAVE to Try

1. Fuyuan Mala Xiangguo

Unlike most mala xiang guo restaurants that calculate ingredients by weight, Fuyuan Mala Xiangguo calculates by portion. Therefore, the vendors will help to pick your desired ingredients for you and cook them with a Sichuan peppercorn base. Leaving your tongue and mouth tingling and numb for the rest of the night.
