πΆοΈ LA | Fiery & Wok-Hei Hunan Cuisine That Brings the Heat!
Came to the east side craving real flavor and found this legit Hunan spot β their Pressure Cooker Fish Head is so tender and addictive, itβs even approved by my Hunan-born friends! β π Pressure Cooker Fish Head Not your traditional steamed fish β this modern method makes the seabass unbelievably soft and flaky, melting in your mouth. The duo-chili sauce is perfectly balanced, infused deep into the fish, and paired with silky tofu. Perfect with rice! π πΈ Spicy Frog with Perilla Leaves The frog legs are super tender, served sizzling in a dry pot β ideal for winter! The longer it simmers, the richer the flavor gets. Spicy and aromatic with perilla β so good! π₯ βBig Hand Holding Small Handβ β Braised Chicken Feet & Pork Trotter A saucy, collagen-rich masterpiece! Simmered with soybeans and fresh peppers, the sauce thickens into pure goodness. A must-try for texture lovers! π¦ Diced Duck with Mountain Pepper Oil A classic Western Hunan dish! The duck is finely diced and packed with flavor, thanks to chili and that unique mountain pepper (aka litsea) aroma. Highly recommend! π₯ Stir-Fried Lotus Root with Chives So crispy and lightly sweet! Wok-tossed with chili and chives until fragrant β simple but incredibly satisfying with rice. We ordered SIX dishes between four people and finished every bite β thatβs how good it is! Already planning to come back for the Pickled Radish with Beef Tripe next time π» π£ They used to be called Old Changsha β now renamed Uncle Chili! And guess what? Theyβre offering 20% OFF for Thanksgiving!! π¦π π Uncle Chili 18359 Colima Rd, Rowland Heights, CA 91748 π©βπ» By day, Iβm a tech data scientist π β by night, a longtime foodie sharing hidden gems across LA and the Bay.
