Drawing analogy to the local 酿豆腐, the spirit of the dish lies in the soup. The assortment of ingredients selected is doused perfectly in the Ma La broth, not overly powering, and permeates perfectly on every bite.

Haven dine in this branch for 2-3 months. The staffs have changed. Staffs attitude was bad. Kitchen staffs did not wear gloves and handled food bare hands, even touching meat with bare hands 👎👎👎 Staff who was cooking food, cough straight into the pot 👎👎👎 Hygiene 👎 Service 👎 Attitude 👎

Update (Right): Unfortunately the standard has dropped and is inconsistent. The pork bone soup seems to have been changed? It is diluted and tasteless :( Review 8 months ago (Left): Always enjoy the food and service at Gongyuan mala. The soup is comforting and meal is hearty.

Expensive but many choices of unique dishes which I don’t see over at other outlets. Superb 麻辣汤 taste. 加油💪 Downside, outlet is small & many having habit to occupy table to themselves, the way you look at it, they won’t wish to share table. Staff to enforce sharing basis. Sharing is caring ❤️
