Vancouver Hidden Gem | Cheng Du Street Food - Worth the Wait!
📍 7911 Alderbridge Way, Richmond After queuing for an hour, this unassuming Sichuan spot hit us with free longan tea and sunflower seeds at the table – and the feast that followed did NOT disappoint! 🔥 MUST-ORDER DISHES 🫕 Mom's Pig Trotter Soup Collagen explosion! Fall-off-the-bone tender with red dates for sweetness. Pro tip: Drink it piping hot for maximum comfort. 🥗 Sichuan Crispy Tripe & Mustard Greens Textural heaven – that crunchy tripe + numbing chili oil sauce = addictive. 🐂 Boiled Beef in Chili Oil Silky slices swimming in aromatic broth – pair with their bottomless rice bowls. Fun fact: The wobbly stools make you feel like you’re eating on a Chengdu street! 🧆 Kung Pao Chicken & Yu Xiang Pork Kung Pao: Crunchy celery + peanuts = perfect sweet-spicy balance Yu Xiang: Subtle sweetness with wok-kissed pork strips 💡 Why It’s Special Authentic street food vibes (plastic stools included!) Spice level: Looks scarier than it is – more flavor than heat Leftover hack: Take the chili oil home for next-day noodles #SichuanInVan #NoFrillsFlavor
