    Got questions?

    Is Makan Malah halal?

    Not yet! In the meantime, we are pork-free, lard-free and Muslim-friendly.

    Do you accept reservations?

    At the moment, we operate on a walk-in basis and don't take reservations. For shorter waits, visit during off-peak hours. We generally don't offer full venue bookings, but if you're planning an event, reach out at ops@makanmalah.com and we'll see how we can help.

    Do you offer delivery?

    Absolutely! Order at order.makanmalah.com, or get your mala fix via GrabFood and foodpanda. (No judgement if you add extra potato chips.)

    Are you open on public holidays?

    Yes, we are! Mala cravings don't take holidays, and neither do we. Hours may vary on public holidays, so check our socials for the latest updates.

    Is it the same as A Hot Hideout?

    Same family, different flavour. Makan Malah is from the creators of A Hot Hideout: pork-free, lard-free and lighter on the oil.
