Sichuan House – Are you hot enough?

。霸王川莊 – 測試你的「辣」度。

小時候的我不嗜辣，甚至可以說食不得辣。經過了中學時期對自己的特訓，慢慢的就開始食到辣，也愛上了辣。這晚有幸參與飯局，更是一場辣局，真的非常期待。

When I was a kid, I rarely ate any spicy food. After the special training I arranged for myself in the secondary school, I gradually fall in love with spicy food . So glad that I can join the Fancook dinner this time, especially when it is held in a Sichuan-style restaurant.

川菜，絕對是中國麻辣菜式中的表表者。在霸王川莊的飯局中，大廚以不同程度的麻、甘、辛、香，呈現出辣的不同層面。以前菜小碟為例，口水雞的麻，川北涼粉的香，已是與眾不同的辣的表現。

Sichuan cuisine is definitely the best among all the spicy cuisine in China. The chef of Sichuan House used different types of chili (e.g. fresh/dried chili) to create different levels of spiciness.

主菜當然有著名的水煮魚、香辣蟹，廚師用了不同種類的辣椒和香料(花椒、八角絕對少不了)，製造做不同口味的辣。還有鎮店之寶「巴蜀香辣爆蝦球」，挑戰極限之選，多重辣椒粉包圍，辣味落到喉嚨才爆發開，差點招架不住。

For main course,  we find the spicy boiled fish and deep-fried crab with chili, and the signature dish Spicy stir-fried shrimp.

菜單當然不會只有辣的菜式，餐廳細心安排與不辣的菜式間隔上菜，遼參十分出色，配以生菜包，是較新穎的食法。開水白菜食出菜的鮮甜，原汁原味。最後，不得不提忘了一拍的胖大海潤喉露，一洗熱氣，和造型可愛的奶黃熊貓包。

The chef also arranges some non-spicy dishes for us to enjoy among all the spicy dishes. My personal favourite is boiled Chinese cabbage. Simple and refreshing. For the dessert, we have the cute custard panda bread.

不得不提的是，間中食辣能達暖身之效，對身體有益啊!

Really have to mention that it is good for the body if we sometimes eat spicy food. Enjoy the heat and test your limit!
