I’ll just let the photos speak for themselves! A group of us celebrated Chinese New Year a little early yesterday with a big dinner at the Sichuan Restaurant in Acton. We shared a large Sichuan hotpot, chili chicken (la zi ji), vermicelli with pork, salted egg fried corn, mapo tofu, fried green beans with pork and preserved vegetables, and a garlicky spicy aubergine dish. Everything was so delicious and the little numbing Sichuan peppercorns distributed throughout the meal were quite entertaining.

I have Chinese on both sides so it would behoove me to try to prepare something in honor of…
I’m thinking some Cuban fried rice and a coconut soup, maybe??
Found you through WANF…I’ve bookmarked you.

I love luncheon meat, totally underrated; but then again chopped ham and pork sounds posher.

Les: I highly recommend this restaurant if you’re in London - they have other dishes with Spam!
