If you’re dining at Silk Road, it’s a sin to leave without trying their famous Sichuan Style Wok-fried Chicken with Dried Red Chilli 辣子鸡 ($38++). 🤩🤩🤩
.
You’ve been warned – this is not for the fainthearted. The level of spice was akin to 中辣 of Mala Xiang Guo, inherited from the plenty of dried chilli used. 🔥🔥🔥 While this is something that not everyone can handle, I must say that the flavours grew on me and I found myself reaching for more chicken chunks despite the slightly burning sensation that lingered. 🤤

This is just the magic of spice/mala right? 🤣 It’s almost impossible to enjoy this without breaking into a sweat or go “oooh ahhhh” with that numb tongue that you can hardly feel, but it is just so SHIOK! 😋😋😋 Perhaps we all do like this kind of self-torture sometimes! 👍🏻
