Malatang fans, you’ll want in on this. The popular Yang Guo Fu MalatangĀ is launching Jellycat-inspired ā€œmalatangā€ plushies for a limited time only! You can get them at the chain’s latest Marina Square outlet from 20 June to 29 June 2025.

Designed specially for the brand’s Marina Square opening, the malatang plushie resembles a smiling hotpot brimming with liao—tomato, chilli, and mushroom. That’s not all: the cute plushie unzips at the top, transforming it into a bag, similar to the viral Milo plushies that were launched a few months ago. You can get it for free when you spend at least $30 at Yang Guo Fu Marina Square, while stocks last.

Alternatively, spend a minimum of $20 to redeem a free phone grip, offered in five different hotpot-inspired designs.

Additionally, you get to enjoy 20% off your total bill when you visit during the aforementioned dates.

For the uninitiated, Yang Guo Fu Malatang is a popular franchise from China with over 7,000 stores globally. They currently have over 10 outlets in Singapore, including Bugis+, Singpost Centre, and Tampines Mall.

Their ordering concept is simple: choose your ingredients from their extensive display, then select your choice of broth and make payment at the counter. The cost of each bowl depends on the weight ($3.18 per 100g), so choose your toppings wisely! Popular soups include Tomato Flavour andĀ Chicken Collagen Soup, though you can consider their Mala Mix option if you prefer it dry.
