Richmond | Tai Er SICHUAN CUISINE- Worth the Hype?

📍 4940 No.3 Rd, Richmond Snuck out with my SO (sorry friends!) to satisfy our uncontrollable craving for this viral Sichuan fish pot – here’s the spicy truth! 🐟 Old-Timer Pickled Fish $48.99 ★★★★★ Why We Trekked Here: Fish: Silky-soft basa fillets (fragile – lift gently!) Broth: Numbing but not cruel – this Cantonese-approved spice level had me glowing not dying Pro Move: ADD WIDE GLASS NOODLES – they drink up that tangy-spicy elixir ⚠️ Warning: Dodge the hidden Sichuan peppercorns unless you want lip tremors 🌶️ Spice Report My (weak) Southern Tolerance: 3/5 (sweaty but survivable) My GF (spicy queen): 4/5 (“proper ma la kick!”) 🍽️ Vibe Check 11:30AM Sunday: Line out the door by noon – come early! Fun Touches: Fortune-telling sticks at every table Free tissues for spice casualties (I used 10…) 💡 Final Verdict “Already planning our next trip – with more friends to try the spicy cold appetizers we missed!” #TaiErOrCry #SichuanSweatSession
