We tried both mala soup and fried mala bowl. The fried mala was absolutely delish! You got to pick whatever you want and they will weigh them for you and you will have to pay according to that. We bought many since we're sharing them .

Excellent build your own laksa place. We get takeaway quite regularly, and it's always delicious. Never takes too long, and it's always Fresh and Hot!!!! Highly recommend it to anyone who wants a make your own meal. Also they charge by the kilo, which makes it easy to load up on what you want, with plenty of fresh vegetables and meats to choose from.

Delicious broth and spices. I recommend to dry-wok option for spicy lovers. Also, peak time is quite busy. Take-away is a good option.

Don't walk - run

Combining a fast weeknight dinner with a visit to my favourite Asian supermarket saw us dine at Fresh & Hot Wolli Creek. Both businesses are set at the bases of residential towers clustered near the train station. The key point of difference at this chain, who also have eateries in shopping centres in Rhodes and Chippendale, is they offer more than one soup base. A milder laksa style broth caters for those who don’t like the regular Sichuan-style hot and numbing soup called ma la tang. It’s a great opportunity to grab a bowl and tongs and choose your own hot soup adventure. Labelling is still a gap for this chain, but I’ve rarely disliked any ingredient I have chosen for my soup. Expect to find the usual range of thinly sliced meats, fresh seafood, Asian greens, mystery balls and mushrooms alongside countless iterations of bean curd and noodles. The fried items, from layered bean curd and fishcake to little vegetable fritters, work very nicely in the resulting soup. You pay $31.80/kilo for your soup when you weigh in at the counter. For me that was 530 grams ($16.85) and my dining companion it was 810 grams ($25.76). The broth here has more complexity than it did when I visited their Central Park store, though it still benefits from stirring though a liberal helping of all the available sauces (garlic, sesame, chilli). The restaurant itself is attractively furnished and well lit. It’s decorated with a series of waving lucky cats on blonde wood shelves, their importance cemented in a colourful mural in the rear of a lucky cat with a steaming bowl of noodles. Staff are friendly to first timers, and it shows in the culturally diverse crowd filling every table on the night I dined. Don’t worry about reservations, they turn over tables very quickly.

recently discovered this place. located a few minutes walk from wolli creek train station. this shop serves freshly cooked affordable meal. loved the spicy pork sold at 13.10 AUD, super budget friendly and served with some veggies and a slice of fruit. what are you waiting for? a “must try” I came back 21 and 22 January 2023.. the food served hot as always and the taste was kept the same as the day I first tried this place. food was freshly made and warm which I love.

Great feed everytime I come here! It's like having hotpot but someone cooks everything for you and you get to choose your favourite ingredients. I've tried the malatang, laksa and dry wok - love all of them. Really flavourful broth.

I love the idea of the restaurant. You can choose whatever ingredients you would like in your soup. You can actually choose from 4 kinds of soup base and type of noodles as well. I had the laksa and it was really good. The only thing I notice is that sometimes, there are flies flying around the ingredients (especially the meat section). There should be a cover at least.

The ma la tang here is great! We get the spicy flavour which is a bit strong but I heard the laksa is perfect. The toppings are really yummy and the noodles have a nice chew. The wait time is not long and the price is okay.

I come here regularly and mainly order the wok stir fry. I love adding sweet potato noodles and whatever meat and veggies that I like. Malatang is great on a cold days as well! Lots of flavour! Just be careful with going overboard as it can get pricey.

In comparison to other malatang places I have been to, the broth here was less spicy and there were fewer ingredient selections. While I like that, these two things can be a double edged sword. I cannot eat too spicy and I am indecisive, so less option the better. Speaking of the ingredients, everything was rather standard and quality was okay. Sadly, the utensils were an eyesore. They were all single use plastic. It is agitating to see businesses encouraging this.

Make your own Laksa! Wide selection of ingredients. Good flavoured broth. Would be better if they had labels for all the ingredients. Choose your own ingredients and pay by the weight and they add a generous amount of Laksa soup.

Tried their dry wok this time, the stir fry was tasty but a bit salty, perhaps need to eat it with white rice to balance up. Shop looks clean, raw material was well organised. Cashier was very friendly and helpful.

It’s my first time trying malatang here and I could say that it was delicious. First impression coming into the store is that it looks super clean and fresh which is hard to find for Chinese cheap eats. The counter was organised nicely into sections of noodles, fresh foods, hotpot balls, vegetables and more. After weighing our bowls and paying, soon after the food came out “fresh and hot” (just like their name). Staff is quite nice and welcoming. The mala soup is at the right amount of spiciness and tastes quite deep and flavourful. Maybe next time we will try their dry wok version. Also I’m loving their self serve water and toppings section with sesame paste, garlic paste, chilli oil and crispy shallots.

Absolutely awesome and delicious value for money! They have a very nice laksa broth to go with the malatang which is definitely fresh and piping hot when served. Great place for takeaway or eating in on a weekday or weeknight and very convenient being a short walk from the station.

Excellent dumplings for Wolli. It’s greasy and yummy. Something you would expect at a place like this. Would recommend

Got myself a prawn laksa as the other meats are not halal, however they are very clean and the staff were very helpful with our questions about where certain ingredients are located. They have lots of toppings to add at the end, very tasty. Their laksa soup definitely hit the spot, a hearty meal that is “fresh and hot”. 😍

The BIG ORANGE spoon is enough for a 5 star rating!!! The malatang taste has always been there since the beginning! The small wooden spoon was a major let down during the dining experience! So do yourself a favour and get the right spoon 😉
