Qing Shu Spicy Hotpot

What is Qing Shu Spicy Hotpot? Positioned on the lively North York corridor at 5195 Yonge Street, Qing Shu Spicy Hotpot is a fast-casual malatang destination centered around fully customized, pay-by-weight hotpot. The bright, unpretentious dining room features open refrigerated cases loaded with vegetables, noodles, sliced meats, fish balls, and tofu varieties. Diners fill their own bowls with raw ingredients before taking them to the counter to select their preferred broth and heat level.

Qing Shu Spicy Hotpot Menu & What to Order Broths are the backbone here, led by the signature Spicy Beef Bone Soup with its deep, marrow-rich depth and numbing Sichuan peppercorn heat. For a brothless meal, the Stir-Fried Spicy Pot (Mala Xiang Guo) and the Spicy Flavored Dry Mix deliver intense chili aroma and wok-tossed seasoning clinging to wide glass noodles and thin-cut beef. Non-spicy diners can opt for the nourishing Pork Tripe Stew Chicken Soup or the tangy Tomato Soup, washed down with sweet herbal tea or soymilk.

Know Before You Go Seating is strictly walk-in only, and lines can form quickly during peak dinner hours and chilly weekend evenings. The restaurant sits a short walk from North York Centre subway station, making the TTC Line 1 the easiest way to arrive, though paid street parking is available on surrounding side streets. The kitchen stays open continuously seven days a week from 11:00 a.m. into the late evening.
