Spicy Panda

What a name for a restaurant... Spicy Panda???  What kind of a restaurant is it?  Turns out that this is a Sichuan restaurant.  The restaurant is located on Level 1, 8 Dixon Street, Chinatown. 

My friend decided to check it out to see if it could rival the Red Chilli Sichuan which we have been frequenting.

Going up the stairs, the restaurant looked bright and the tables were quite spacious.  Good first impressions...
the menu looked interesting and varied too, mains ranged from $15 - $30.  The first time we went, we decided to order the Spicy fish with minced pork and the Ma Po tofu.  It was an enjoyable meal and was tasty (no photos...as we were too hungry...)

We decided to go again and ordered the same fish with minced pork (you pay an additional $5 for fresh barramundi, otherwise the barramundi is frozen) and this time it was pork ribs with chips.

It was once again an enjoyable meal...a restaurant which we will come again... given that there is more often than not a queue outside Red Chilli Sichuan in Chinatown....
