Mala Shangxi is probably the most literary and artistic Sichuan-style hot pot in Shenzhen, it is located in the Overseas Chinese Town Creative Park, and there are many abstract oil paintings in the store, which are very suitable for the atmosphere of the art park. The décor is elegant and simple, with tables and stools made of old-fashioned shiny ash or pine. The plain square wooden table and the square wooden bench look very neat and old-fashioned, and the light gray cement wall that cleverly separates the space has a modern design. The space between the seats is large, and there is no sense of crampedness at all, so you feel that you can eat hot pot in a calm and relaxed mood. The plates, cups and saucers are also elegant, with light celadon and black cast iron teapots, and the chopsticks are disposable wooden, which is quite meticulous in terms of hygiene management.

In addition to the elegant and quiet indoor space, Mala Shangxi also has outdoor seating, where you can go to eat hot pot at night, while blowing the evening breeze, you may also hear the music of the black stamp jazz coffee opposite, which is very suitable for dates and treats.

The elegant design space has not become the only selling point, and the most competitive thing about the spicy Shang Xi is still the pot base and the dishes. The base is made of thick meat, strong flavor, uniform quality of chili pepper and pepper, the bottom of the pot is fresh and spicy, the taste is natural without additives, the spice flavor is very sufficient but the oil flavor is not heavy, suitable for people who do not like whole butter and monosodium glutamate. In order to maintain the authentic taste, Mala Shangxi focuses on local ingredients in Sichuan, especially the main hot pot shabu-shabu, and insists on purchasing locally in Sichuan every day and then airlifting it to various branches. The dishes are very fresh and of good quality, authentic in the mouth, and depending on the ingredients, they can be crisp or elastic, all of which retain the taste of the fresh ingredients themselves. The dishes served on the table are beautifully presented and of uniform quality, and the thickness and size of each slice are very close, and the brand has put a lot of thought into the selection and treatment of ingredients.

The red oil pot bottom of Mala Shangxi has not been improved for the taste of Shenzhen consumers, so the spiciness. If you like spicy but are not used to the spiciness, you can pick out some of the peppers after the bottom of the pot is heated shortly. For customers who can't eat spicy food, there are mushroom soup, three fresh and mandarin duck pot bottoms to choose from. The menu also provides intimate small pots suitable for 2~3 people, which reduces unnecessary waste of base materials when there are few people. Because the pot used in the hot pot is made of copper, the heating speed is fast, and the oil and aroma will volatilize to a certain extent during the meal, so it is recommended to finish it as soon as possible. It is worth mentioning that after a long time of cooking, the red oil at the bottom of the pot is still clear and pleasant.

Unlike most hot pot restaurants that go first and then factory, Mala Shangxi set up a central factory in Chengdu as early as 2006 to carry out the research and development of base ingredients and the development of a stable supply chain of local ingredients, and after several years of cultivation to lay a solid supply foundation, it was not until 2012 that the first store was opened in Xi'an, which is essential to provide stable and high-quality food taste, which also shows the importance of Mala Shangxi to the quality of its products and its brand's down-to-earth business style.
