Pizza Hut Japan has introduced a new fusion pizza called Malatang Pizza, blending elements from Chinese, Korean, and Italian cuisines. The pizza's inspiration comes from the spicy Chinese noodle hot pot style called malatang, originating from Sichuan.

Sliced pork, wood ear mushrooms, and a mix of two cheeses – mozzarella and gouda – complete the flavor profile. Developed with guidance from Chipao Maratan, a popular malatang restaurant chain with locations across Japan, the pizza is available in three variations: the standard Malatang Pizza, the seafood-infused Seafood Malatang Pizza, and the vegetable-focused Vegetable Malatang Pizza.
The Malatang Pizza debuted on October 8 and will be available at Pizza Hut Japan locations until November 4.
