| - Before my first visit to Szechuan Legend, my knowledge of Szechuan food was about the size of a Szechuan peppercorn. But after last night's Hot n' Spicy food crawl, I have gained a better understanding of this fiery Chinese cuisine and learned that the Szechuan peppercorn is not my friend.
+ At first glance, the Spicy Poached Fish looked delicious and deadly. The poached fish was cooked to perfection and absolutely divine. It was rustic, garlicky, spicy and so tender. Warning, be sure to avoid eating the Szechuan peppercorns in order to avoid the mouth-Novacain-numbling sensation. [http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/nH9sGGOaW0ONeIYcmsK3EQ?select=vVyzIrSatCwYLsV2OQE1vw]
+ Spicy Pork Slice was one of my favorites. The long slices of pork belly were so scrumptious with spicy garlic sauce. [http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/nH9sGGOaW0ONeIYcmsK3EQ?select=xrm4MNaR2wgEfd73pfDBuA]
+ The bony Spicy Duck Tongue was interesting. Or was it the Novacain-effect from the peppercorns talking?[http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/nH9sGGOaW0ONeIYcmsK3EQ?select=sHKtEWIFieGYFzOi96nCGg]
+ Stir fried Spicy Bitter Melon was yummy. If you are not familiar with bitter melon, you may not like this dish. I loved the bitterness of the melon, the spiciness of the chili and the flavorful minced pork, a good combination. [http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/nH9sGGOaW0ONeIYcmsK3EQ?select=k30JGXlCwOc_AgbHC9dtoQ]
I thoroughly enjoyed my culinary exploration at Szechuan Legend, from the tastiness and authenticity of the food to the traditional, classic Chinese décor. The sights and sounds of the local Chinese crowd as well as the company completed this marvelous culinary journey.
