Humble mala hotpot shop located in Orcahrd Tower. They definitely can make the food more “ma” as this is too mild for my liking. Nonetheless I loved dining in here and the food. Loved that order is by portion and not by weight - which sometimes can feel like a scam

Food: thanks for the food poisoning, SFA should shut you down. The taste is bland and uninteresting, any place can provide better quality food.
Service : unlike other place, this restaurant does not provide no condiments. When asked, they act like they don’t know what you’re talking about.
Price: this picture is 2 pax set, around $33. The sad part is with this price you get very little meat and frozen food, and tons of vegetables. I could say it’s borderline scam.

Not nice! Mala standard is very average! no different from hawker & more exp. peoples park mala is much better! Meats in the Chicken cubes is so small, more flour than meats.. Egg fried rice looks normal but surprisingly quite good, guess is the seasoning msg.

I like how they clearly state the price out of ingredients for you. The meat is nice with a good texture (ordered mutton and pork). I ordered medium spicy and it is very flavourful while not being too salty. The only thing I don’t like is the aircon is a bit weak haha. The person there is also very friendly

Ordered the signature dishes for 3 pax. Very good. For those who like spicy, ask for it. As it was our first time trying, we kept it normal - and it wasn't spicy enough - though the fragrance of the spices came through strong. Boss from Shenzhen is very friendly. Ordered from 1 unit (kitchen) and ate at another nicely furnished unit. Will be back.

Visited La Way on two occasions and my rating is based on the two.
For the first visit, I only ordered their mala xiangguo. It was a bit pricey compared to heartland coffee shops but the quality is really good. Meats and other ingredients taste fresh. Love the less oil and less salt option which I both selected and the dish was really light to my liking.
For my second visit, I ordered egg fried rice and la zi ji. For $9, I find the portion of the fried rice to be not worth the money (it's just rice, eggs and chives). It's a bit too oily too. The lzj was a major disappointment as the chicken pieces were coated in a thick flour and there were not that many actual chicken pieces. Didn't find it worth it for $20.
All in all, I'll skip the other dishes next time and will just order the mlxg.

This is my go-to for authentic Ma La Hot Pot. The flavor is perfectly balanced and truly hits the spot, making it my favorite in town—especially for delivery at night :)

A hidden gem at Orchard Tower (L4). We stumbled upon this small MALA restaurant named La Way. The place was empty, when we reached there on a Saturday evening. We’ve met a nice lady, probably the owner of the shop and she explained that they have more online orders than sit-down customers.
The quality of the ingredients is good. The Mah taste wasn’t very strong but
there’s a special taste in the gravey… (i suspect its the beef oil). It’s not too salty too unlike the other shops we tried. The taste was just nice.
We will definitely coming back here and bring our friends over! But we’ll try a bit more spicier level. The dishes looks amazing too! Will defined try those next time too!!! We are happy to stumbled upon this cute little shop!
We ordered: Mala (Mild Spicy) (probably around 10 ingredients), 1 cup of rice and a mineral water for just $20! Great Deal!!! 🎉

We accidentally walked into this restaurant, ordered Mala for 2 persons, had surprisingly great experience. The food was really very authentic and unlike many other mala food vendor - the quality of meats and veges are top notch. Most of the vege/mushrooms items were charged at $1, meats range from $2-$3 each. We have order around 10 items, plus 1 bowl of rice and 1 bottle of water - surprisingly it only costed $20 in total. The portion was quite big, good enough for 3 person.
Highly recommended for Mala enthusiasts.
Pros:
- good taste
- very reasonable price
- very good service
- clean
- ambient
Cons:
- location a bit hidden
I will definitely come again and try out other menus items.

Delicious mala hot pot, reasonable price, nice environment, and long open hours. Ordered at 9:30 am and got my food quickly. The less oil option is good for diet.
Will definitely come here again.
