David’s Master Pot 大味麻辣烫

Build-your-own Sichuan malatang by weight in Melbourne CBD, open till 2am for late-night cravings.

A functional, fast-moving counter-service hot pot bar rather than a sit-down dining room. busy and buzzy, especially late at night, with customers self-serving from an ingredient spread and paying by weight.

Self-serve weigh-and-pay DIY hot pot bar with multiple broth options, dedicated vegan items, open until 1-2am most nights, and several Melbourne CBD locations (including La Trobe St and Russell St).

Genuine Sichuan malatang with authentic ingredients and broths (mala red soup, suan cai pickled-cabbage soup), noted by reviewers with direct experience of Sichuan and Taiwanese hot pot styles.

Weight-based pricing keeps typical bowls affordable and popular with students, though a handful of reviewers reported bills that seemed high relative to what they ordered. worth checking your bowl's weight before paying.
