I will preface this review by saying I am a self-described spice fiend. Many a time I have asked restaurants to hit me with their spiciest dishes. Many a time I have been warned about the level of spiciness of a dish. Many a time I have been underwhelmed.

So when the lovely lady at Mala Express warned me, saying'Chinese chilies are not the same as Canadian chilies,' I still chose to order the spiciest possible Dandan noodles.

From my first bite, I knew that this would be my undoing. A level of spice so absolutely overwhelming that my nose immediately started running, my eyes watering. & yet, noodles so fiercely delicious that I knew I had to keep going. Eventually, after taking multiple breaks between bites & drinking an herbal tea & two coconut waters, I finished my bowl. It was absolutely delicious, as were the sour & spicy (mild) cucumbers.

In short, if you love intense flavours & extreme spice, Mala Express will make you feel like you are in heaven. Just don't say I didn't warn you!

The medium spice level was too spicy; I couldn't eat it & had some pain.

Really good sichuan cuisine! The wonton soup was delicious. We were asked about our spice tolerance before placing the order. I ordered the super spicy numbing soup & it did not disappoint! Cannot wait to go back & try other dishes. Also, the restaurant is very clean which I appreciate.

You can select the spice level you would like. For those who have never tried spicy food, i recommend you go for mild because spicy seriously hits.
