Xiao Long Kan Menu Prices Malaysia 2026
The xiao long kan menu in Malaysia starts with a soup pot from RM48 and builds from there, with hotpot ingredients from RM5 for black fungus up to RM128 for Australia A5 beef. This is Chengdu-style Sichuan mala hotpot, the real tongue-numbing kind, served in a traditional teahouse-style restaurant at Fahrenheit 88 in Bukit Bintang and at Mid Valley Megamall. One honest note before the tables: the most detailed price boards are from 2019 food blogs, and prices may have risen since, so treat every figure as a guide and check the in-store menu.
How much does Xiao Long Kan cost in Malaysia?
Hotpot pricing is a build-your-own maths problem: one pot, split across the table, plus whatever plates you order. The pot itself is RM48, and most ingredient plates sit between RM10 and RM48, with the A5 beef at RM128 as the clear splurge. For two people sharing, a pot plus three or four plates lands around RM120-180 in total on the board prices, which works out to roughly RM60-90 each. Groups do better per person, since the pot cost spreads further and the sharing plates (like the RM20 vegetable platter) stretch across more diners.
| Example Orders (Board Prices) | Items | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Two person classic | Pot RM48 + Pork Belly RM28 + Pork Neck RM20 + Vegetable Platter RM20 + Fried Crispy Meat RM16 | RM 132 |
| Two person signature | Pot RM48 + XLK Spicy Chili Beef RM48 + Rose Meatball RM26 + Crystal Glass Duck Intestine RM28 | RM 150 |
| Four person sharing | Pot RM48 + Pork Belly RM28 + Shrimp Paste RM38 + Vegetable Platter RM20 + Brown Sugar Rice Cake RM13 | RM 147 |
| Splurge table | Pot RM48 + Australia A5 Beef RM128 + XLK Spicy Chili Beef RM48 | RM 224 |
Totals above are simple sums of board prices, not official set meals, and they exclude drinks, rice and any service charges. Some boards also report half portions for selected items at lower prices, so ask your server if you want a smaller plate.
What soup bases can you choose at Xiao Long Kan?
You pick your pot first, and everything else follows from it. The signature is the Traditional Spicy Soup, a mala broth built on a century-old recipe with beef tallow, Sichuan peppercorns and dried chillies, offered in mild, medium or extreme heat. If mala is not your thing, the Tomato-flavoured Pot is tangy and rich, the Mushroom Soup is earthy and gentle, and a clear or pork bone broth covers the plain option. Pots come split so you can run two or three broths at once, which is the smart move for a mixed table.
| Soup Pot | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Single-flavoured Pot | RM 48 | One broth of your choice, refillable |
| Double-flavoured Pot | RM 48 | Two broths split in one pot |
| 3-flavoured Pot | RM 48-50 | Three broths; some boards report RM50 |
| Traditional Spicy Soup (Mala) | Included | Mild, medium or extreme heat, beef tallow base |
| Tomato-flavoured Pot | Included | Tangy, rich tomato broth |
| Mushroom Soup | Included | Earthy, gentle, good for non-spice eaters |
| Pork Bone / Clear Soup | Included | Plain broth option |
What are the must-order meats and seafood at Xiao Long Kan?
The menu runs to over 50 ingredients, and the meat section is where Xiao Long Kan earns its reputation. Every plate carries a suggested cooking time on the menu, which is a nice touch: sliced meats take about a minute, meatballs and pastes take 3-5 minutes, and the duck intestine needs just 30 seconds. The plates below are the ones that come up again and again across reviews, with the A5 beef as the luxury pick and the rose meatball as the signature that you won’t find elsewhere.

The dipping sauce is part of the ritual: minced garlic, spring onion, coriander and chilli mixed with the house fragrant oil, plus oyster sauce and black vinegar if you want more punch. Servers will walk first timers through it.
What vegetables, sides and desserts should you order?
Don’t skip the vegetable side of the menu, since the mala broth needs something fresh to cut through it. The RM20 vegetable platter is the easy sharing pick, covering mushrooms, beancurd, seaweed, tofu and greens in one plate. The bamboo shoot at RM15 is the palate cleanser regulars swear by, and the fried crispy meat at RM16 is the snack to munch while your hotpot ingredients cook. Finish with the brown sugar rice cake at RM13, deep fried mochi with brown sugar, which reviewers call dangerously addictive after a spicy meal.
| Vegetables, Sides and Desserts | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Vegetable Platter | RM 20 | Sharing plate, mushrooms, tofu, greens, beancurd |
| Fried Crispy Meat | RM 16 | Crispy fried meat snack while you wait |
