This is one of the best Sichuan Chinese restaurants in Bangkok! The restaurant in located in Nara Place, a community mall complex in Soi 24 Narathiwas Road or Soi 19 Sathu Pradit Road. It’s also opposite Le Raffles (which houses the Animal Café). The nearest BTS station is Chongnonsi plus a 15 minute taxi ride or walk for around 20 minutes from BRT Thanon Chan Station. It’s right behind Central Plaza Rama 3 shopping center. There are quite a lot of dishes to choose from, all of them being authentic Chinese dishes, and are priced in the medium-high range. Our family’s favorite is sliced fish in spicy pickled vegetable soup. You can request for the dishes to be made less spicy if you’re not used to Sichuan pepper which has a numbing effect (and lasts for around half an hour after eating).

The price is on the average but well deserve for the generous portions and the fast and furious Chinese cooking…from wok to table in minutes. You know you’re in yer right place for Chinese when your veggie dishes are served extremely hot and still crispy at each chew.
