Chinese Food in Vancouver WA
We somehow missed that Szechuan Brothers opened in Vancouver in early October; from the team behind the game-changing Duck House, its kitchen is helmed by Duck House chef Yuacho Yao but it’s no carbon copy. While it sports a sizable menu, it doesn’t have the xiao long bao that made Duck House such a hit and instead emphasizes Szechuan hot pots and other spicy dishes, plus popular new items like seafood okra soup and a Szechuan-style whole grilled fish. Dumpling seekers can still find addictive wontons in chili oil, and the restaurant may expand the menu to add dim sum specials like bao down the line. Like its sister restaurant near Portland State University, it’s open for lunch and dinner Wednesdays through Mondays.
