What Exactly is a

Singaporean Kind of Mala?

Traditional Mala

  • All ingredients are blanched the same way
  • Thick layer of oil — not great to drink
  • Chilli flakes and peppercorns stuck in your teeth
VS

Our Mala

  • Different ingredients, cooked differently — eggs are scrambled, some items are deep-fried for texture
  • Minimal oil, maximum flavour — our soup is actually drinkable
  • We extract the spice into the oil and grind it down — all the flavour, nothing stuck on your teeth

We didn't set out to make Sichuan mala.
We made something new.

Our soup is simmered for over 12 hours, creating a rich, creamy broth that's meant to be drunk — not just used as a cooking liquid. We deep-fry our toppings for extra crunch and flavour. Less numbing, more flavour. Born in Singapore, made for Singaporean palates.

Started in an NTU dorm room in 2020. Now 11 outlets strong.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is A Hot Hideout halal?

Not at the moment — we currently use pork bones and lard in our cooking. But we're cooking up a brand new concept that will be halal-certified. Stay tuned!

Do you have vegetarian options?

Not yet, but we're working on it! We're developing menus that are vegetarian-friendly, so watch this space.

Do you accept reservations?

We don't take reservations at the moment — it's all walk-in! Pro tip: swing by during off-peak hours for shorter wait times. We generally don't do book-outs, but if you're looking at having an event at our place, feel free to write in to us at ops@ahothideout.com and we'll see what we can do!

Do you do deliveries?

Absolutely! Get your mala fix delivered islandwide at order.ahothideout.com or through GrabFood and FoodPanda. No judgement on ordering extra potato chips.

Do you have high-chairs for babies and toddlers?

Yes, we do! Families are always welcome — high-chairs are available at all our outlets.

Do you open on Public Holidays?

Yes! We're open on Public Holidays because mala cravings don't take days off. Operating hours may vary, so check our socials for the latest updates.
