Chinese restaurant chain MealTime Malatang has signed for its debut European site at Shaftesbury Capital’s 34 Goodge Street in Fitzrovia.
The restaurant will serve malatang – a traditional Sichuan street food similar to hotpot – from the 500 sq ft restaurant, which provides 26 covers. MealTime Malatang launched in Shanghai in 2018 and now operates more than 50 restaurants in China.

Andrew Price, executive director at Shaftesbury Capital, added: “We are delighted to welcome MealTime Malatang in their first venture outside of China. Their fresh, flavoursome malatang will be a welcome casual dining option for all and is a fantastic edition to Fitzrovia’s incredible line-up of global cuisine.”
