For someone that's not generally enamoured with Sichuan cuisine, I was pleasantly surprised by the visit. This place is an institution in Melbourne and was here long before restaurants serving Sichuan dishes sprouted in the CBD. Today I came with a friend who knew what to order and luckily has similar chilli tolerance levels as me. We first sampled the twice-cooked pork. Jam-packed with flavour, the pork belly had the right balance of fat and meat, complemented by the textures of stir-fried vegetables and a delightful sauce. Then came the fish slices in a pickled vegetable soup. Generous slices of fish so soft and tender they just fell apart and melted in the mouth. The slightly sour and salty tastes blended in harmony. So delicious soon I was lamenting we hadn't come to try this out sooner. You come here for good food, fast service and good value for money. The decor can't be called trendy but the chairs are comfortable and you are not squashed against other diners and clashing elbows. Worth a return visit to try out other offerings.
Best for pork cumin and the eggplant.
Great dervice and food. Large sevings
Excellent food esp ribs and prepare to have your socks truly blown off.
Best spicy food in Melbourne. Great vegan options. Heartily recommended of you have the tongue for it.
Dear Sichua food lovers. Cumin pork ribs is back again! We will reopen on this Thursday 18/06 and do takeaway. You are welcome to visit us. Thank you for your liking us. See you soon.
Good value for your money. We had a lunch here for $10 each and it is a flavourful dish especially the beef noodle. Be warned that some of the food are spicy, you need to tell the crew not to put too much chilli oil. I enjoyed the food and will definitely come back here with my family. Make sure to order the dumpling in chilli oil and it will make your day worth it.
Used to come here 2years ago and it’s was super delicious. Went back now and was so disappointed. Would not go back.
That was for three people and the portions were a lot! The staffs provided takeaway containers for us to pack the remaining. Spicy meat slices and fish were super great, I’d like to visit again!
Best pork ribs and cold noodles I ever had in moi LOIFE
