    This place is expensive. That's the absolute first thought that comes to my mind. They also charge you for tea, which in many Chinese restaurants comes for free, so I find they're looking out for their business more than they're looking out for you.

    On the other hand, they serve good food. I love Sichuan food, and have definitely gotten myself quite sick eating it, both in Sydney and in Sichuan.

    So if you're interested in a good meal at a relatively nasty price, try this place out. On the other hand, if you're interested in a good meal and you find their prices too high, you can do what I do and simply visit a different suburb, because there are plenty of quality Sichuan restaurants elsewhere in Sydney which are cheaper.

    Also, Glebe has great restaurants, so there's no need to visit a Sichuan restaurant for a good meal. And if you do want to visit a Sichuan restaurant for a good meal, Sydney has better suburbs than Glebe for you to find one in.

    Having said that, this restaurant _is_ quite good.

    This newish hotspot is as gaudily unsubtle as Sichuan cuisine.

    With its fairy-light facade winking across Broadway, this newish hotspot is as gaudily unsubtle as Sichuan cuisine. Front-of-house, studenty types race around, wearing black pantaloons, their lucky-red silk jackets pinned with teddy-bear-cutesy yellow plastic ID tags. The full-colour photo menu takes you through Sichuan fare in all its chilli-vermilion garishness. Jump in where it's hot with a chilli-laced three delicacies cold dish combo ($18.80): deep fried fish smeared with dark-cured soy beans, spicy chicken in sesame paste and lightly vinegared pickled veg. Less piquant is a lacey doily of Sichuan fried dumplings: soup-squirting parcels fried in a frilly disc ($7.80) or green beans with pork mince (pictured) ($12.80). Fire up again with whole fish on a bed of dried chillies ($28) or cumin and Sichuan-pepper-crusted beef in brick-red chilli oil ($18.80). Litres of Chinese tea are the best foil for the capsaicin
