YGF Hotpot, Vienna: Korean-Spicy Custom Mala Tang, Per-Weight Pricing, ~€40 for Two

 

Mala Tang in Vienna: YGF Hotpot 


Hi! I’m JingJing, studying in beautiful Malta on the Mediterranean with my husband, Bongbong.


TL;DR — Build your bowl, pay by weight, and ask for “Korean spicy”. The broth is clear and not too salty, heat is adjustable, and two people can land around €40 if you keep toppings in check.



Intro

 

Craving a comforting, spicy bowl in the middle of a European trip? YGF Hotpot serves mala tang in a self-serve format: pick ingredients, weigh, and they’ll cook it to your preferred heat. It’s the easiest way to reset with familiar flavors without leaving the city center.


What & Why

The draw is balance: a clear, non-salty broth that still carries spice, plus a line of fresh veggies, proteins, and noodles. Service is friendly and fast; bowls usually arrive in about ten minutes, steaming and ready.


How to Order (Per-Weight)

 


  1. Start minimal: grab essentials — one noodle, one or two proteins, and 3–4 veg.
  2. Weigh & pay: pricing is by weight; overloading can spike the bill.
  3. Tell the kitchen: say “Korean spicy, please” or ask for a milder bowl.
  4. Taste & tune: sip the broth first; add chili oil at the table if you want extra heat.


Spice Level & Flavor



The heat can go high, but it’s more about a clean burn than a salty punch. If you’re heat-loving, ask for stronger; if not, start half-spicy and enjoy the broth’s clarity.


Pricing & Value

With a restrained bowl each, two diners often land around €40. For Vienna’s center, that’s fair — especially when you avoid over-filling and focus on a tidy, satisfying mix.


Location & Access

Find YGF Hotpot at Praterstraße 51, 1020 Wien. It’s an easy add before or after city walks; seating moves quickly thanks to the streamlined format.
