Chilli and Spicy Restaurant


It seems that each time I go out with this girlfriend we end up heading for Sichuan food in the city... more so because we just love the way they do their fish dishes be it swimming in hot dried chillies or with a chilli and black bean sauce.  The sauce is just so tasty when eaten with plain boiled rice!  Yum!

With most of this restaurants, the fish is frozen but you could pay a bit more for a live fish, fresh out of the tank.

Furthermore, they also do a good chicken dish (like this one in the basket).  Not sure what it is called as we just order by looking at the photos.  The chicken is cut into pieces and cooked with onions and chilli.  But, this dish is not very hot.

Sichuan food can be oily, so a tip, is that we usually get them to cook it with less oil... not as nice but definitely good for the heart.  Furthermore, you can also specify the level of intensity of the chillies!

Anyway, this Chilli and Spicy Restaurant is tucked away in Chinatown and located in the mezzanine level of the Breakfree hotel along George Street.

It is not a big restaurant but seems to be busy each time we are there.  If you are there for lunch, they also offer a good lunch menu.  But given our preferences for their fish dishes, we always opt for the dishes instead.

Definitely one of our more favourite Sichuan restaurants in the city.  After a hot meal, a visit to Meet Fresh for desserts is a must.

  1. The test of many world class cuisines perhpas lie in the freshness of ingredients utilised and the quality of the accompanying sauces and gravies. The chicken in the basket looks yummy - great shot!
