If you love spicy food, this is the place for you! Good Sichuan style food, meaning flavorfully-numbingly-HOT! yummzies. Anything in chili oil is worth getting, I personally prefer the chicken though....

I'm cantonese, but I swear sometimes I think I must be part Sichuan or Korean because I am enamored with spicy food. When an asian server asks in her broken english "How spicy you like?" I say in an...

I was crazy in the mood for some good old Sichuan food and I'm glad I found this place in Monterey Park. It's small and ghetto -- just the way I like my Sichuan restaurants. The best part is that it's...

This is real Sichuan food--the kind where the hidden Sichuan pepper numbs your tongue and the massive amount of visible chilis makes the food seem like a practical joke to a Westerner. When I walked...
