This is hands down, the best Mala Steamboat for miles! The owner takes a lot of pride in his business and as such, gives high quality cuts of meat for this customers. The best soup to choose is definitely the beef tallow Mala. The different types of plates to order are elevated with the mala soup. I cannot recommend this place enough for small gatherings or couples.

Highly recommended. Service was amazing and it was extremely affordable. It came to around RM60 for 2 (We were stuffed and there was a bit of food left over). Especially great for those who are craving steamboat but don't want to waste on an entire buffet.

We found a steamboat place in Nilai which has been operating for 5 years. It had good reviews on Google so we decided to try it tonight. We ordered the pork bone soup & tomato soup. Both were good. They have a quite a selection of handmade items, bursting porkballs, handmade dumplings to name a few. I would say they have a good selection of meats, seafood and vegetables. Price is alright, the place clean and the parking is ample.

Good portion of ingredients and many ala carte options available. Tomyum and mala soup was good, pork bone soup abit boring.. Service is friendly and attentive. Price came up to about rm60-ish for 2 pax for a very filling meal.
