NYC｜Boiled Fish Is Good, but the Cured Meat Rice Steals the Show! 🐟🍚

Just a minute from Main St. subway, inside a mall’s second floor. Simple, clean setting—felt like being back in a Chinese shopping center. 🥬 Appetizer – Crunchy, salty Sichuan-style cabbage. A Northeast China friend loved it; lighter palates may want rice alongside. 🐟 Boiled Fish – Sizzling sea bass, tender and juicy with bean sprouts and cucumber strips. Fragrant Sichuan peppercorns shine, but it’s not spicy—even Cantonese diners will enjoy! 🦆 Sichuan Pepper Duck – A cold appetizer with bold marinade and numbing pepper aroma—great with rice. 🥘 Pork Trotter Soup – Tender, gelatinous trotters with soft white beans in a rich, warming broth. Add chili oil for extra kick! 🍚 Cured Meat Clay Pot Rice – The star of the meal! Fragrant腊肉, perfectly cooked grains, crispy rice crust, and fresh green beans. So good I had two bowls—worth every carb coma 😋. As a Sichuan spot, the tables aren’t greasy, and your coat won’t smell like oil afterward—nice touches! A solid, slightly surprising meal 🤩. Few places in NYC serve authentic pork trotter soup—this one’s a keeper. And it’s even a Michelin Plate restaurant! ✨ 📍 DaXi Sichuan 136-20 Roosevelt Ave, Flushing, NY 11354 #Flushing #NYCFood #SichuanCuisine #NYCEats #MichelinPlate #ComfortFood #ClayPotRice #FoodieFinds #NYCRestaurants
