Tried out a new Ma La place with my ma la buddy Irene! We got both the dry and soup dishes as they pride themselves for using a mixture of herbs and pork bones in their broth. For the soup version, the original comes without spice but if you order it spicy, the lady at the cashier drizzles something that looks like chili oil sauce all over before serving. For this, we ordered the 3rd level of spice (大辣) but similar to the dry one, it wasn't that spicy. In fact, this was very drinkable! I liked that it wasn't MSG laden and you can taste the relatively rich pork bone base. It’s comforting and quite addictive, but not really something I would return to as it lacks the oomph I get Ma La for.
