Enjoy hot pot dining at David’s Master Pot in Australia. We use traditional Sichuan Malatang cooking methods for a unique experience. The concept of Malatang was formed by diligent workers along the Yangtze River in Sichuan. We first stir-fry more than 20 Chinese herbs and spices, including Sichuan peppercorns, then add our pork bone broth and secret chili oil, and finally boil it together for up to 12 hours. This is how we make the most authentic Malatang soup base that you’ll love! Source from Website
