At first glance, this corner store at the newly opened coffeeshop along Tyrwhitt Road looks like any regular noodle shop. But take a closer look and you'll find familiar SiChuan dishes like Boiled Dumplings with Chili ($5) and Sour and Spicy Noodles ($5). The selection may be limited, but all we ask for is affordably-priced and perfectly executed SiChuan fare. The owner, who is from SiChuan, shares that his spice levels have been turned down a few notches to suit our local tastebuds, but is more than willing to provide the "authentic" SiChuan taste for spice lovers — just ask for the "perverted" spicy level (bian tai la). We love the Sour and Spicy Noodles ($5), a comforting bowl of chewy noodles swimming in a flavourful chili-vinegar broth that is not too spicy to slurp on. Pair that with a plate of Cold Tossed Pig Ears ($5) and Boiled Dumplings with Chili ($5) and you've got a seriously satisfying meal!
