Usually I am happy to please at a Northern Chinese Restaurants, just give me noodles, dumplings and something hot and spicy, I will be a happy camper. Unfortunately, Hot Spicy Spicy though has a cute name, it really does not deliver.
I found they make the food too salty. If mega salty=flavoured, then it is really flavoured dumplings and beef noodles. There are a lot of ways to make good tasting Chinese food by using garnish, sauces to give it a more complex taste.
The Spicy Cold Konjac served here is made by mixing the jello with hot chili oil.. so it is just hot without being spicy.. other places use Sichuan pepper in the mix to give one the numbing, explosive spicy taste which is unique to Northern Chinese cuisine.
(Sichuan pepper has a unique aroma and flavour that is not hot or pungent like black or white pepper, or chili peppers. Instead, it has slight lemony overtones and creates a tingly numbness in the mouth (caused by its 3% of hydroxy-alpha-sanshool) that sets the stage for hot spices.)
Though the Lunch Special here starting from $5.99 which is great prices but I would not be back again.
They accepts cash only!
