"Open for: Lunch, dinnerPrice range: $$There’s Chinese food in Milwaukee and then there’s Sze Chuan. Word has spread quickly about the West Allis cult favorite, inspiring spice-seekers to make the trek away from the lake to enjoy cumin pork knuckles, dry pot intestine, sauteed spare ribs, pork kidney, or any of the many things from the massive menu doused in tongue-numbing, mind-altering Sichuan peppercorns.
