LA｜Tried the Trendy New Malatang Spot—Honest Review! 🍲✨

Finally tried the new Big Way Hot Pot in Rowland Heights! It’s a self-serve malatang spot priced at $14.99/lb with free soup bases. The ingredient area is impressively clean and stocked with everything from meat, seafood, and veggies to premium picks like abalone, crab, and even pink noodles! We tried two broths: 🌿 Green Pepper Broth – Light but aromatic. 🌶️ Spicy Sichuan Broth – Looks fiery but isn’t overly spicy. The soups are on the milder side, but they have a self-serve sauce bar so you can customize the flavor. Perfect for those who prefer less oil and salt! The space is modern and spacious—not your typical fast-casual vibe. Before 5pm on weekdays, you get free ice cream and drinks—and the ice cream is seriously delicious! 🍦 They also serve filtered water at every table—a small but appreciated touch.😂 Overall, a clean, fresh, and customizable malatang experience that’s great for groups, kids, or anyone wanting a lighter yet satisfying bowl. Even the staff from the hot pot place next door eat here—always a good sign!
