Despite its small size, this Chinese restaurant provides a delightful homemade vibe with its high-quality food offerings. It stands out for being both affordable and clean. During my visit, I ordered beef with vegetables and some dumplings. The dumplings, although on the smaller side, were quite delicious. The beef dish, while decent, didn't particularly stand out. What truly enhanced the experience was the friendly and welcoming atmosphere, with a Chinese couple running the shop. Look like a family business.

Special pot is a special place. It is run by a special mom and pop couple who are very nice and speak little English. The special dish is a mala pot where u choose the ingredients from the fridge and they fry it up in a special sauce which is very delicious. There's minimal seats in the special pot so not good for big groups. Lots of vegetables to choose from along with various meats. All germs are killed in the heat of the wok.
Overall zero ambience but the food is bussin and very reasonable.

The mala pot is the best I've had in akl, really recommend it!

Ingredients are weighted and price comes out straightaway. All ingredients have the same price so I suggest choosing ingredients that will be more bang for your buck. Flavor comes out good and satisfy my craving for Mala.
Staff are friendly too.
Damage: $4.50ish per 100g. The picture is for 1 pax, around $19 dollars. Herbal drink is $2.50.

Their Mala tang with soup and without soup have so much flavour. Even the non spicy versions! It has so much more depth than just tasting like spicy chillies, which i find at some other places. They also make the BEST dumplings - nice thin wrapper (not too doughy) and delicious filling. Love this place!

I‘ve been coming here a lot for the past few years, it’s one of my favourite eateries. I always want to try the other dishes but the dry mala pot is just that good that I have to order it every time… Their dumplings are also handmade and very tasty! Their prices in general are very good ($3.30 for 100g for the pick your own mala), I usually get around $30-40 worth if I’m sharing with another person.
The family that run the place are also really friendly!

Best dry hot pot that I’ve ever had in AKL. Food was very fresh and medium spicy level was just great for me. It’s so tasty and the owners were super friendly and accommodating.

Nice little place with good service. Food was more than reasonable with most dishes around the $12 range. They have a good selection of dumpling flavours as well. Extra were ordered to take away.
