Malatang
Malatang is a spicy dish served in a hot, hot-and-spicy broth with vegetables and a choice of protein: chicken, beef or prawns. The broth is made with a generous amount of pepper and spices, giving it the fiery, numbing-spicy character typical of this style of dish.
Malatang is served hot in a deep bowl and is best eaten with a spoon, scooping the broth together with the vegetables and protein. It's one of the spiciest dishes on the menu, with a high spice level that isn't toned down — it should be chosen by those confident in eating spicy food.
