我相信都唔少人試過食傷心酸辣粉
我有理由相信係同一個集團
完全普通過唔普通
又要訂位又要先落訂
要怪就怪我自己去之前冇睇食評
如果唔係可能可以避過一劫
原來已經轉左老細,
黎呢度既主要原因係因為朋友仔係10年前食過
想重拾昔日時光

有2位侍應,年輕的那一位又冇耐性
解釋得又唔清楚,有少少唔耐煩的感覺
話晒都係中環,我地又好有禮貌咁問,
這樣的態度未免差了點吧..

算,講返食物
有麻辣粉皮,好正宗既傷心酸辣粉味道~

2013 米芝蓮推介系列。到四川旅遊過,因此而愛上四川菜的惹味。是日點菜:麻辣口水雞 (雞肉不多,入味不夠,未有麻辣味)酸辣粉皮 (先辣,後麻,粉皮屬闊身)麻辣拍青瓜 (穩陣之作)川椒大蝦球 (蝦球夠大,略咸,需要配白飯)素餃子 (有客2隻) (皮較厚,高麗菜做餡,有助舒緩麻辣)白飯基本上除了白飯外,所有餸皆是紅色、油淋淋、麻辣上陣。味道不過不失,普通一家小菜館可做到的感覺。當然不能期望與四川地道菜的味道相比擬。因為太辣,每隔幾分鐘需要忙碌舒緩一翻,所以未有拍照。但摩登時尚環境搭夠,適合外國人到訪閒坐談天。

到四川旅遊過,因此而愛上四川菜的惹味。

是日點菜:
麻辣口水雞 (雞肉不多,入味不夠,未有麻辣味)
酸辣粉皮 (先辣,後麻,粉皮屬闊身)
麻辣拍青瓜 (穩陣之作)
川椒大蝦球 (蝦球夠大,略咸,需要配白飯)
素餃子 (有客2隻) (皮較厚,高麗菜做餡,有助舒緩麻辣)
白飯

基本上除了白飯外,所有餸皆是紅色、油淋淋、麻辣上陣。味道不過不失,普通一家小菜館可做到的感覺。當然不能期望與四川地道菜的味道相比擬。

因為太辣,每隔幾分鐘需要忙碌舒緩一翻,所以未有拍照。但摩登時尚環境搭夠,適合外國人到訪閒坐談天。

已經是第三次幫襯了, 每次既食物都能維持水準. 佢地中午有SET LUNCH, 一湯三餸包甜品同飯, 每人100加1, 價錢個人覺得其實都OK. 先來一碗湯, 叫雞豆花, 雞湯味濃, 有少少雞肉碎有趙口, 入面既娃娃菜煮淋咗又好鮮甜, 天氣凍凍地一飲即刻暖哂 再來一個冷盤痳辣豬肚, 唔太辣 (我係傷心酸辣粉食小辣既人), , 豬肚好入味又帶少少煙韌, 薄薄一片, 口感有少少像熏蹄, 食到好香既五花八角蒜蓉味, 食多幾塊, 辣味由口腔慢慢滲出, 開始有少少痳辣既感覺, 味道很有層次!跟住上水煮牛肉, 見到佢滿滿一窩咁多辣椒有少少淆底, 但食落個味同個痳辣豬肚一樣咁有層次, 因為係熱菜既關係好暖胃, 但味道更惹味, 牛肉煮得剛好, 有少少紅, 唔太薄片, 少少煙韌得來帶痳辣香亦不失牛味! D汁用來撈飯好香!再來一個醋炒土豆絲, 帶少少醋酸味, 土豆絲爽口, 唔辣, 但相比起上面兩個餸就無咁濃味最後來一個冰涷既雪耳豆腐花, 豆腐花好滑同好香豆味, 雪耳都幾大塊, 唔算太甜, 但就中和番個味覺, 為整餐飯做個完滿既終結~ 會再來啊~~

一直都對川菜情有獨鐘, 而之前到過成都後對當地的地道川菜依然念念不忘, 有機會的一定會再去, 今次來到而私房菜形式的大平伙, 看看會否比一般川菜餐廳更出色~餐廳內掛著很多畫和有不少擺設, 很有gallery的感覺~酸辣粉皮味道不錯, 食落去都不會覺得啖啖油, 加上四季豆作配料增強了口感,地道得來又見心思~紅燒牛肉炆得夠腍, 不太辣, 個湯好正有d想飲埋去~我最喜歡o既菜色之一, 麻婆豆腐, 豆腐很滑, 豆味都很香, 沒有被麻辣遮蓋了豆腐味, 其實可以再麻辣多點就更出色~ 食到尾段有菜苗湯清一清口裡面o既辣味, 豬肉餃子都ok, 不過食到呢度先食2隻咁大隻o既餃子感覺有d 滯~總拾來說, course 編排不錯, 好似前菜同主菜之間有雞豆花中和一下, 而甜品前又有菜苗湯清辣, 最後的雪耳豆腐花都很清甜, cool down 一流~ 值得一試~

麻婆豆腐 (6/10)
This is one of Sichuan’s most famous dishes and is also served in Chinese restaurant throughout the world.
The tofu wasn’t the highest quality, wasn’t very smooth. The chef used a fair about of Sichuan peppercorns and crushed it, loved the heat from it. The aroma from the chili bean sauce, chili, garlic and ginger was fantastic.

The set lunch has already increased its price from $88 to $100, from empty to a full house in 2 months. More importantly, now you are allow to add more dishes, that the 5 they provided from the set menu.

Give me a thumbs up if you like it!

Early dinner on a Tuesday; we had no wait at all in this little tucked-away private kitchen.

The space is set up as a gallery, and the atmosphere was Asian/Modern/Industrial. I liked it, it's a nice change from the more conventional Chinese banquet-type restaurants.

We started off with a pitcher of sour plum juice and a pitcher of sugar cane juice (Er, evidently we were super thirsty.) Both were super refreshing, and made a good counter balance to the heavily spiced food.

Dinner (at $388 pax) was a set menu of about 10 dishes; the menu is presented at the start of the meal, and you can hang onto it to keep up with each dish.

I went with 2 others; my sister, who doesn't usually eat spicy food, her daughter who love spicy food but doesn't have a great tolerance for it, and I who can really put some spice away from time to time.

The 2 gentlemen (one of whom was clearly the proprietor) running the front of house were really very friendly and charming, checking in with us regularly and giving a head's up to my non-spicy eating sister on the particularly hot dishes.

Favorites:

1. The stewed beef with chili. This wasn't really a hot dish, but the flavors were complex and was my 2 eating partner's favorite by far.
2. Ma Po tofu. The signature dish. Fantastic quality tender tofu, and the sauce was wonderful, dry-cooked and beefy.

Passes:
1. Sweet tofu dessert: this was really boring, even for a palate cleanser. Considering how good the tofu in the Ma PO tofu was, I expected better.
2. Giant Prawns with fresh chilies: this really didn't make any sense; the flavors didn't mesh well, it seemed like an excuse to put some seafood into the meal. We didn't bother finishing this plate.

In all, this private kitchen does a nice interpretation of Sichuan's greatest hits; though definitely tweaked for the HK palate. I liked the atmosphere and the service and it's worth coming here once in a while. For those looking for truly authentic, burn-a-hole-through-your-stomach-lining Sichuan food, though....keep looking.

雞豆花湯 (3/10)
Chicken broth was the base of the soup and it was served with minced chicken, Chinese cabbage and mushroom. It was something very light to kick off the lunch.

Stir-fried Vegetable (4/10)
Stir-fried the vegetable with Sichuan Chilli! The chilli was not bad, loved the spiciness. The vegetable was very crunchy, great texture.

回锅肉 (4/10)
It was perfectly tune to westerners taste, it was not the回锅肉you would expect. It would be better if the pork belly is fatter. More importantly, the甜面酱 dominated the 豆瓣酱 flavour, it was kinda too sweet and lacked hotness. But overall, it did taste good, just not the Sichuan style 回锅肉.

Over all, this was a very nice lunch, but it was rather non-Sichuan style. A set lunch with 5 dishes at HK$88 was an absolute bargain, the only problem being the menu doesn’t change, its always fixed.

Give me a thumbs up if you like it!

因不特別嗜辣,平日很少吃川菜。適逢好友介紹,相約到四川菜大平伙刺激一番。店內陳設頗有格調,放了不少藝術擺設,亦帶點中國特色。當晚所吃的餐單店方早已安排好,在眾多辛辣餸菜中夾雜數款不辣菜式,可供大家沬沬汗,透透氣。前菜小吃有三弄,分別香脆土豆松、香辣青瓜及酸辣涼粉。香脆土豆松主要含花生及豆乾,辣度小辣,屬熱身香口小食。香辣青瓜因本質清爽味淡,縱然多添辣油調味亦不會過火。酸辣涼粉是三道前菜中最辣,以黃豆椒粒香葱等製成火紅醬汁,伴上滑口粉皮,入口辣度緩緩滲出,挺刺激。主菜有六道,首先來的是夫妻肺片,內含牛月展、鴨胸及牛肚,和肺片有何關係?!牛月展都幾腍身,鴨胸配搭感覺上有點突兀,味道無乜特別。第二道菜是不辣的雞豆花,豆花雞嫩口,雞湯底亦甜味,簡單配上津白已是一道不錯的解辣湯水。第三道菜是紅燒牛肉,牛腩炆得又腍又入味,幾好食!第四道菜是回鍋肉,相對其他主菜不算辣,回鍋肉炒得香,但肉質肥了一點。接下來的是麻婆豆腐,屬當晚較辣之作,豆腐挺滑,先辣後麻感覺分明。最後的主菜是豌豆湯,不辣,相對雞豆花湯更清淡,在云云辛辣味道當中更見稀有突出。主食鍾水餃,餃皮厚厚,以切碎豬肉作餡,似紅油炒手,普通。甜品雪

自從幫襯過灣仔的渝川菜館,一直想再試試香港的私房川菜,剛好有線節目《美食法庭》介紹了位於中環荷李活道的四川菜大平伙,被一道麻婆豆腐勾起了我的辣癮,即在 Facebook 發起一局。四川菜大平伙是不折不扣的私房菜,每晚只做 6:30 及 9:00 兩個時段,按人頭收費 $280,由於店內座位有限,訂座時要先付一半按金,實屬合理。這裡不設點菜,全場也是吃同一樣的東西,店方細心之處,就是在每道辣菜之間,均安排 ”不辣”、 甚至 "解辣" 的菜式,照顧一些吃不了辣的朋友。有別於渝川菜館,大平伙走的不是「住家川菜」路線,環境裝修挺有格調的,四周掛滿由店主王亥操刀的油畫,地方不大,卻有精緻之感,難怪能吸引不少外國客人光顧。另外,別看店主外表不修邊幅的,凡事都親力親為,當每道菜呈上來時,也會作簡單介紹,而且言語間充滿喜感,竟然有點像成熟了的盧廣仲。先來的是涼拌三絲,包括甘筍絲、窩筍絲及芽菜,入口盡是爽脆的感覺,伴以香辣的紅汁,麻勁不強,是個醒胃的前菜。糖醋香瓜是不辣的菜式,切條的香瓜固然爽脆,重點的糖醋汁則比較稠身,但醋的比例較輕,令味道偏甜了一點。三道前菜中,以酸辣粉皮的味道最稱心滿意, 以大量炸

三道前菜中,以酸辣粉皮的味道最稱心滿意, 以大量炸過的黃豆、紅椒粒等材料,伴以滑溜粉皮,連辣汁一啜入口,為舌頭帶來先辣後麻的雙重刺激。

上菜速度奇快,轉眼已開始主菜的部份,灑滿了芝麻的口水雞賣相吸引,用上冰鮮雞也是無計可施,所以「雞無雞味」實屬非戰之罪,最大問題其實在於雞切得太大件,大而無當,反令汁醬只能沾在雞件的外層,入口不辣之餘,更糟的是傳來一陣雪味,徹底的不合格!

接著是用以解辣的雞豆花湯,是以雞胸肉蓉,混入蛋白,煮至成豆花狀,再配合津白、清雞湯而成。或者是因為剛才的口水雞不太辣,喝這湯時覺得味道過於清淡,雞豆花半點不滑,明顯煮得過火,實在可惜。

接著兩道分別是粉蒸排骨和紅燒牛肉,前者肉排質地不夠鬆化,竟然不及外層軟韌的糯米吸引,壓底的番薯本來令人期待,可惜也不算特別清甜,不禁令我掛念台灣永康街牛肉麵館的出品。

紅燒牛肉勉強算是當晚偏辣的菜式之一,牛腩炆得軟腍,亦連著一條厚厚的肥脂,感覺對辦,以紅燒汁拌飯吃也是不錯的。

講開拌飯,當然不可不提麻婆豆腐,豆腐切得大大件,入口滑溜,卻不是辣勁的源頭,重點反而是落在那黑卒卒的肉末之上。無可否認,麻婆豆腐是當晚最辣的菜式,頗為霸道,可惜麻勁則略為欠奉,在我個人而言,實在有點到喉唔到肺!

吃過白飯總算有點飽意,解辣的豌豆湯便緊接送上,這湯明顯比剛才的雞豆花湯來得清甜,雖然不是甚麼昂貴菜式,但有時簡單就是美。

原來還未吃完的,最後分別有鍾水餃及雪梨雪耳豆腐花,前者水餃皮弄得厚厚的,以豬肉作餡,單吃的話不覺特別,但若拌以紅油來吃,味道甜而不辣,味道十分特別;雪梨雪耳豆腐花則是清甜潤喉的飯後甜品,材料十足,亦沒有可以挑剔的地方...

等待了一整晚,老闆娘終於從廚房走出來,跟每檯客人打招呼後,當然要高歌一曲。她清唱的是新彊民歌《半個月亮爬上來》,我們坐在前列位置,當唱到高音位,感覺「寧舍不同」,哈哈!


總覺得「大平伙」三字很特別,卻一直不明所以,於是上微博問問童鞋們,原來應解成四川話中的「打平伙」,即大家相聚一起,每人出一份錢,買菜做飯吃或者出去吃飯的意思,簡單一點,就是我們常說的 「A A 制」啦!

最後來一碟酸辣粉皮,可算接近街頭的小吃風味。底下的蕃薯粉可來得煙韌,除伴上火紅醬汁及鋪上紅椒之外,較特別的是面上鋪上大量四季豆,這香脆之感也和花生有點類似,配上既辣且酸的味道,整體來說可為惹味開胃。

頭盤來說還算不俗,到了主菜部份倒有點急轉直下........這大碟的口水雞,論賣相是美觀對題的,起碼上面也灑上了芝麻,可惜入口的雞肉鮮味欠奉之餘,肉質也帶點偏淋,差一點的話就是「霉身」了。看似火紅的醬汁,可惜應有的辣香就是有所不足,偏重於香醋之味,總算在隱約之間,還是吃出一點花椒在內,說實一句,就是吃得不爽。

吃了多道火紅而不太火辣之菜後,侍者向眾人端來一人一碗的雞豆花湯,說是作解辣之用。以雞湯作基礎之下,配料有刴碎的雞肉、些許時蔬及少量蘑菇等,論鮮味還算可以;據知現任美國總統作客北京之時,其國宴菜單就有以下的食譜。順帶一提,侍者奉上每款辣菜之時,亦夾雜一道不辣的食品,好令食客的口味來得吃得消,這策略來說可算適宜。

跟著上來的是傳統的粉蒸排骨,做法是將糯米伴上調味料後,再鋪在醃過的雞塊或排骨之上加以蒸製,關鍵之處是墊底的蕃薯及南瓜塊,於甜香之中可吸索糯米及肉汁的精華,講究一點的更會用原個金瓜釀入所有配料。這裡的出品......在糯米中可嚐出五香的調味,至於這大件頭的排骨,雖然某些部份欠上鬆化,總算醃得入味,配上淡甜的蕃薯,總算來得不錯。

再送來兩大碗色澤鮮紅的「送飯菜」,先上的紅燒牛肉,被席上一眾認為是五香肉丁的「原型」。以牛腩的肉質來說,可炆得十分軟熟,味道在鮮味之餘不乏火辣之感,配上席上的白飯還算不俗。由於少接觸這道菜,個人覺得還是可以的。至於同場的麻婆豆腐,自己對這道菜也是帶點執著,看醬汁雖然火紅,豆腐亦算幼滑,上面還有不少肉末,可惜徒具重辣的味道,就是欠上那麻香之感,四川的「辣」,是帶其獨有的個性,試過後的印象會烙在心頭,是磨滅不掉的。

吃了兩道辣菜後,侍者也送來一碗解辣湯,今次的配料可來得簡單得多,只得些許青菜和不知名的食材,大家喝下後的感覺,也以為加了甚麼不知名的藥材,再詢問之下,原來只不過將碗豆煲到麋爛,想不到卻有如此奇特的味道。
鍾水餃得個厚皮,卻是淋身的質感,鮮味也是欠奉,幸好有醬汁補救,糖水可十分清潤

到了點心和甜品的時間,先來的是鍾水餃,能有此名號,是因為以前有一家姓鍾的人家,擅於包製及調配辣味的水餃而聞名。可惜這裡的店主不是姓鍾,水餃外皮略厚,卻吃不著手擀麵的質感或麵香,肉餡亦是欠奉鮮味,反而其酸辣的醬汁可調配得不錯,起碼來得開胃。最後的豆花甜湯,豆腐本身來得幼滑,內裡更加了雪梨及一些類以百合的粉糯之物,作為冷凍的甜吃,味道可算清潤,一洗先前累積下來的火辣之感。

飯後的娛賓節目,由老闆娘親自用女高音來高歌一曲,至於悅耳程度.........實在見仁見智。論當晚的食物還算可以,但當看見餐廳內的顧客,不是老外就是打扮入時的專業人仕,就知道其光顧的食客層面,絕不是四川鄉里及大眾一群。蘇豪區是華洋雜處的玩樂之地,帶一點迎合的心態,總有其市場價值,如追求傳統的川菜味道的話,這裡絕對不是心水之選。看店主兩夫婦,總覺得似藝術家多一點,拿起鑊剷卻是半途出家。

最後以二百八十元離開,食物來說雖然未盡人意,當晚不失為氣氛愉快的一夜,最後也要感謝籌劃這個飯局的食友,作為朋友層面,其成績可算有目共睹,那些虛名只屬錦上添花,真正的實力卻是不容置疑,我亦是其學習對象之一,願大家共勉之。

味道不錯, 可是我卻不太喜歡湯本身的texture, 有豆磨... 感覺不好.. 不過解辣的功效不錯.

排骨一樣.....太大件, 而且很重豬味.... 反而親友對南瓜的興趣比排骨更高....哈哈!!!!

<麻婆豆腐> --> 送白飯
味道夠, 豆腐也很滑. 可是dressing不夠thick. 不過, 白飯煮得很硬, 連我喜歡吃硬飯的也吃得有點吃力....orz....

<餃子>
很奇怪的味道.... 甜的..... 內裡的豬肉味太濃了... 吃了一個已經想放下... 不過同行的親友喜歡, 因為不辣.
哎呀....順帶一提, 我是吃豬的, 卻不知道為什麼這晚所有有豬肉的菜式....都令我不想再下筷....


<冰糖雪梨海底椰豆腐花>
非常出色的甜點, 味道剛好, 為這晚令我不太滿意的感覺加了不少分!

整體來說, 環境可以, 清潔乾淨. 菜的味道, 只是一般..好像不太worth of it...

我對服務員的service 卻不太滿意. 為客人加水, 在吃辛辣食物的店子, 不停為客人加水是很例行工事, 可是每次也要我提醒, 而且加水只是加不夠一半.....要一杯冰水, 要他們再加, 又是加了不夠8分滿.... 這個行為給人的感覺是他們想你order他們的beverage. 看過drink menu, 價錢非常貴... @.@

不過chef 是一位女士, 她會在完餐的時候出來跟每張table個客人say hello. 之後她會唱歌.
她的熱誠也為這晚加了分.

打正旗號是四川菜, 整體來說卻不是忠於四川菜的本身.. 感覺失望... 完全是調較至香港人的口味.
如果大家想吃四川菜而又喜歡辛辣的食物, 我想這裡是滿足不到你的.....

朋友想吃四川菜,一早都已經聽過了四川大平伙。地址不難找,我們3人被安排了坐在門口的一個偏遠位置,餐廳環境不錯。食物方面由廚師發版,我們都不知有什麼東西吃,亦忘記了價錢。朋友立即用iphone去openrice看食評,大家開始發覺原來菜色沒有變更。食物很多,我們3人的份量與隔離枱8人的份量好像一樣。先來的冷盤,估不到最辣的竟然是粉皮。可能舌頭還未warm up,頭2碟前菜已經像ko了我。最慘的是侍應對加茶的態度很特別,你不要求他不會主動。就算你主動叫他加茶,他都不會同時自動替同枱的朋友加茶。難道的一定要飲酒嗎?沒有做research的我們吃時都很多驚喜,因為不知道還有什麼可以吃。最出色的是麻婆豆腐,送飯真的一流。其他菜色的味道差不多,五香牛肉像極回窩肉。四川大平伙勝在份量一點都不少,我們到中期都須要打包了。最後本想離開時侍應卻說要等老闆表演後才可離去。真的不好意思,可能我們坐在老闆唱歌的側面,耳朵真的有點兒被她的聲浪震裂,而且開頭她有幾句走音,我們想笑又要扮著很欣賞似的。好不容易等了她唱完那一首山歌,又要等她逐枱放下單據。其實食物份量真的很多,質素不是真的那麼高,但配合價錢以及環境卻又可

Possibly one of the earliest private dining places in Hong Kong, around since at least the earlier part of this decade, and still at the same "hidden" locale, simply for the deceptive address. The entrance is actually a "hole in the wall" on Graham Street. The concept is actually better than the food.

Possibly one of the earliest private dining places in Hong Kong, around since at least the earlier part of this decade, and still at the same "hidden" locale, simply for the deceptive address. The entrance is actually a "hole in the wall" on Graham Street.

The concept is actually better than the food. Run by a couple from Sichuan, the husband is the "host" and artist behind the art on the stark white walls. The wife is the chef and does her rounds at the tables, with a diminutive hello, then ends off with a powerful Chinese ditty that shows off her vocals and range.

Service is very spotty, with the help looking stressed and watching where they need not be watching. If you're not too good with spicy, my advice is to try and get them to part with an entire pitcher of lemon-infused water at your table so you don't have to cry for help ever so often.

Appetisers were slightly underwhelming until the appearance of the dry-roasted beans in a quintessential Sichuanese pepper based sauce. The heat is not the apparent type but increases as you dig in. The numbness is addictive, and as you down each spoon, your lips pucker up naturally. Who needs collagen lip balms or for that matter, red lipstick.

The other appetiser which acted as a good counter to this was the cucumber strips in a chilled mollasses and vinegar combo sauce.

The first mains was a steamed chicken in a sauce made with few chillies but lifted by a variety of spices native to Sichuan and with added fragrance from the roasted peanuts.

The use of clear soups to cleanse the palate was a good idea, but the only snag is that they were pretty tasteless by Cantonese standards. Maybe that's the intent but I thought they bordered on bland.

So after our Chinese cabbage soup topped with minced chicken, we were very pleasantly surprised and excited by the braised beef brisket with whole Sichuan peppers. This was rightly served with a bowl of steamed rice, and the 2 went together like a house on fire (pun intended). The brisket was very well braised, and required little to no chewing, and did well enough to soak up the flavors from the chillies and other spices. Possibly my favorite from the entire evening.

Consistent with the host's theme of serving one spicy dish with one non-spicy, the next dish of minced pork with sweet potato topped with glutinous rice was homy but perhaps a little rustic to deliver much flavor, especially with the presence of such other spicy friends at the meal.

My dining friends definitely enjoyed the next dish of shrimps with a spicy sauce that much more, and this was also perfect with rice. Even on its own, the chopped up vegetables of celery, chillies, spring onions, etc. was a crunchily fresh yet spicy and importantly tasty accompaniment on rice.

The other winner of the night was the Ma Po Tofu. Possibly the most famous dish and most associated with Sichuan, this was done with minced beef, instead of the bastardized more usual minced pork. The tofu was silken smooth, like good Sichuanese tofu. Maybe a little known fact for the uninitiated, Sichuan is actually famous for its tofu, and especially the silken texture they are able to achieve, and best eaten with a spicy sauce, aka Ma Po tofu. The story has it that Mrs. Ma was a poor woman from the province tasked with making a dish that would impress a rich guest and the result has gone on to become the province's most famous dish.

After being served with yet another bland lettuce soup this time, the last dish of the evening of minced chicken dumplings in a spicy sauce arrived. The use of minced chicken was disappointingly tasteless and perhaps pork would have been a better choice. So while the sauce was pretty decent, I was too full to want to make the most of the dumplings and left mine after a singular bite.

Dessert was a welcome chilled Sichuan tofu with water chestnuts and attap seeds. An interesting variation of almond tofu, and a decent enough finish to the evening.

Overall, nice for a visit after a long while, but given the limited variety, is not something to go back to too often.

to be honest, if you are into very authentic AND spicy food, you may be disappointed (Yunyan at Miramar Shopping Centre / TST is the place to go) as the chef (wife) has toned down the spicy level a little

but I like the way she has a non spicy dish followed by a spicy dish, to allow our numb tastebud to cool down a little; plus give the non spicy takers a chance to try other si chuan dishes which you may not order in other si chuan restaurants.

portions were ok, just enough for our table so not much was wasted. my fav was ma po tofu- the tofu was as smooth as silk and the 'ma la' was just right. not sure if she put any meat in it though...

the decor was very sleek, and the service was extremely good. both the owner (husband) and the young waiters were always at hand to explain what the dishes were (in both Chinese and English).

best thing about it she didnt use much MSG, and the dishes (in general) weren't too greasy!

will go again. highly recommended for a si-chuan 'beginner'!
