At gourmet food lover's recommendation I finally went to this restaurant. My friend suggested on reservation & I'm glad I did, therefore bypass the waiting line.
As soon as we entered the restaurant we smelled the spicy in the air. The restaurant serves surprisingly authentic Sichuan food. Love it.

C'est une délicieuse cuisine sichuanaise, très authentique. L'ambiance est un peu bruyante, pas idéale pour discuter tranquillement, mais parfaite pour les amateurs de plats épicés.
