Similar to YTF concept where we choose and select the ingredients you want except their staff will assist you. Instead of charging by weight, the ingredients are priced affordably at (per portion) $1 for vegetables, $2 - $3 for meat and seafood, $0.50 for rice and $1 for noodles. Each portion size is suitable for 1-2 pax.
We chose ingredients such as lotus root, potato, enoki, sliced fish, luncheon meat and noodles to share. They have 4 spice level - 不辣 Non-Spicy, 小辣 Less Spicy, 中辣 Medium Spicy and 大辣 Super Spicy. We chose to go with less spicy which was alright and good to eat comfortably but felt that we could level up and go for the medium spicy the next round. The peppercorns are fatal, one bite and it caused a numb tingling sensation on my tongue 🥵
I like their version of MXG that was well seasoned and flavourful which leans more on the garlic rather than peppery taste. They are also very generous with the servings of peanut and sesame seeds.
Some say this is the OG. There are 2 日日红stalls within People’s Park Center FC. Both have similar standards IMO. Cheaper than your food court 麻辣香锅. $23 of food could feed nearly 3 pax! The level of spiciness has probably been toned down. 中辣is a good point to start for most of us!
Price dependent on how much you ordered. I paid $20 for this plus 2 bowl of rice. This was my favourite mala place in Singapore, and was the first stall that I ever tried. But I felt that the standard dropped? Not as nice as I remembered it to be. Nevertheless, still a enjoyable meal.
Certainly not so as there was barely any queue at all at the popular Ri Ri Hong Mala Xiang Guo during dinner time. Perhaps it was due to the less crowded atmosphere that the chef was able to control the quality of the mala xiang guo much better and this time round it was much better than previous visits. Each ingredient was coated evenly with the secret spice blend and it was also not over the salty scale. However, they might have adjusted the spice level slightly and for most spicy eaters, you should get a minimum 中辣 and above to feel the heat. In addition, there’s still a pool of oil at the bottom even after requested for less oil, so probably you should just ask for much lesser oil in future.

Charged by the types of ingredients you choose instead of weight, Ri Ri Hong Mala Hot Pot is undeniably one of the most popular stalls in Chinatown that can satisfy your mala cravings.

I’m in Team 小辣🔥. Which team are you on?
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
One of the, if not the best mala Xiang guo in sg. This is perfect for those who dislike a strong cumin taste. The numbing feeling from the sze chuan peppercorns make it more palatable to the newly converted mala fans

Ri Ri Hong has die hard fans and there is always a long queue at their store. Their Mala is more la (spicy) than ma (numb) and they charge by per pax. For example, instead of charging you say $3/100g for meat, they charge $2/pax for meat. Just got to let them know how many people you are ordering for.
What I like about ri ri hong is that it is spicy shiok and not too salty while the portion is generous. 2 pax can probably feed 3 pax.
Just need to brave the queue and the heat 😎
Ordered a total worth of $25 for 3 pax. The spiciness is mild as we ordered 小辣. There is a little broth in it and it is nice to slurp on it.
By the time we finished our meal, there is a snaking long queue being formed. Luckily, we came right after rain stopped hence there wasn't a queue when we arrived.
