It’s impossible for everyone to like the same type of dishes and it’s okay to agree to disagree. Pineapples on pizza, mala hotpot spice levels and choice of protein are common arguments and there are completely normal opposing opinions to have. But, when it comes to cilantro, let’s get it straight that it’s a herb that should NEVER have found its way into our dishes.
So, is this hotpot restaurant playing fast and loose or have we stumbled into a new flavour profile?
Despite being such a controversial element, Dasi Hotpot located in Old Klang Road is known for its unique hotpot flavours. This 70s Hong Kong-themed hotpot restaurant features different types of soup base. Their most popular soup base is the signature pork bone soup that is made of pig bones and 23 kinds of ingredients following an 8 hours boiling process!
Their other popular soup bases includes the tomato soup base, healthy tofu clear soup and— the cilantro century egg soup!

You’ve got to try the amazing homemade ingredients they recommend here. They have clear water fish balls, pork balls with hanging slices, cuttlefish balls, and prawns that are fresh from the sea. And that’s not all! Don’t miss out on their classic and nostalgic luncheon meat and shrimp dishes.
If you’re looking for something lighter, make sure to order their fried rice. This fried rice is a wholesome addition for those of us who can’t get through a meal without some sort of rice dish!
Their lunch menu includes their famous homemade minced pork ball noodle for only RM13. Based on its rave Google reviews, patrons are complimenting their unique flavour combinations and the one-of-a-kind meatballs they serve.
What’s more, there’s plenty of seating available upstairs, and they even have 2 private rooms if you’re looking for a more intimate dining experience. The relatively new restaurant brings nostalgia and variety right in the middle of Old Klang Road.
So, are you brave enough to try the cilantro soup?
