We loved the chicken dumplings, duck pancakes, egg fried rice, and the sweet and sour chicken. Didn't love the kung pao chicken as much though. This place has a very lively atmosphere and you can tell it's very popular restaurant in chinawtown. Would come back here again in the future.
Dishes tasted just like the most authentic Sichuan (Szechuan) restaurants in China. Not just spicy but with beautiful flavours brought up by the perfect mix of special spices. The icing on the cake is the prices are really affordable with good portions. Definitely will come back again with friends and family.
I have been here a few times now, having discovered it a few years back and it continues to impress me every time with its fuss-free, generous, spicy Sichuan dishes.
The classic beef and black bean chow mein was lovely. Tender pieces of beef with perfectly-cooked noodles and the distinctively earthy black bean sauce gave it that extra level of savory flavour. The prawns with asparagus were delicately seasoned and had a very pleasant texture. Overly hard and chewy prawns can be a recurring problem at some restaurants but not here!
This was also my first time trying pig trotters. The ones served here had simply been served with some vegetables. They were very nice but I would have preferred them to have been slightly softer. While they had a rich flavour, as the trotters consisted mainly of fat and gelatine, they became slightly boring after a while. But nethertheless, it was worth the try. The duck hotpot was delightful. Plenty of tender meat was served with chilli oil and chillis. The Sichuan pepper added that distinctive mouth-numbing sensation and the extra kick you really want when it comes to Sichuan cuisine!
Try to bring as many people as you can to make the most out of the vast, tempting menu. If you're looking for a good, simple and affordable meal, this is the place for you. But it's not for those who can't handle chilli!
