Da’an District, Taipei City｜Mala Hot Pot

Best hotpot in town. I went to this same chain restaurant 4 times in a period of 4 days. I chose the second-tier buffet lunch set (NT$799/898, weekdays/weekends & PH). For that, you get unlimited Australian premium wagyu beef and beef short rib, premium pork, and premium shrimps. You can also order from the classic menu which is diverse. My favourites are the braised items (pork intestines, beef tendon, beef tripe) and duck's blood. Also good are the classic shrimp (better than premium shrimp in my opinion), and clams as they are fresh. You also get many types of drinks to choose from, including beer and wine (at selected outlets; the one at Zhongxiao Fuxing has it). Additionally, there's a huge selection of ice-cream and other desserts to choose from.

I have visited many other branches and this one is by far the best one. First of all it's located in a super central location, then the tables are really well separated and those next to the window offer a really nice view on the main road. Also there is more choice of seafood and some extra and different meat sets from the other branches. I don't go anywhere else now for hot pot!

A tasty hot pot with pretty good quality for all you can eat. Like the decor too.
