10 Spicy Portland Dishes That Deliver the Heat | Eater Portland

"Located off 158th and Hwy 26, this not-so-well-kept-secret consistently produces the best in Sichuan-style cuisine in Beaverton since it opened in 2011. Taste of Sichuan calls itself “Home of the Swimming Fire Fish,” and it’s the spiciest among many other very spicy dishes on the “Wild Side” portion of its menu. This dish is also known more traditionally as Sichuan boiled fish, or Shui Zhu Yu. Here, white fish is lightly poached in seasoned water and then served in exceptionally spicy oil and broth (made with Tien Tsin peppers and Szechuan peppercorns), along with tofu, mushrooms, and bean sprouts. It is currently open for takeout only, seven days a week." - Ron Scott
