成都最佳美食

• Sichuan Hot Pot

  Bubbling pots of fiery mala broth where you cook thin-sliced meat, tofu, and vegetables at the table. Chengdu's numbing-and-spicy hot pot is considered the most authentic in China, with restaurants ranging from street-side stalls to multi-floor banquet halls.

• Dan Dan Noodles

  Thin wheat noodles tossed in chili oil, Sichuan pepper, preserved vegetables, and minced pork. Named after the shoulder pole (dan dan) vendors once used to carry them through the streets.

• Mapo Tofu

  Silky tofu in a fiery sauce of fermented broad bean paste, chili, and Sichuan pepper, finished with minced beef or pork. One of the defining dishes of Sichuan cuisine.
