"Co-owned by Sichuan native and Drexel graduate Mark Rao, this hip and modern Sichuan spot in Powelton Village has laid-back vibes with a cheery, playful panda mural by Chinese artist Chenlin Cai. Executive chef Jack Xue (formerly of Jane G’s) trained in Chengdu in the 1970s; here, he spoils diners with crispy, gooey twice-cooked trotters doused in leeks and fermented broad beans, sour and spicy beef soup with glassy noodles and pickled mustard greens, cumin Mongolian lamb, and diced, baked chicken thighs loaded with celery and peppers." - Ernest Owens, Diana Lu
