I must confess that I came here on August 4, 2014, almost 10 years ago and my review was less than impressive. Having said that, I am so happy to update my review from a 2 Star to a 5 Start, based on my most recent experience.
My mom was craving Chinese food and while there were many choices, I know how much she loves Sichuan cuisine. I told her a little bit about my previous experience here and she said: "let's give them another try" .... moral of the story, always listen to your Mom!
My mom and I's absolute favorite was the dried chicken with chili curry. It is a pretty dry chicken that gets a little bit flaky based on the cooking technique and it is spicy, which is something that we both love. She was loving it and repeated several times, but this is a spicy plate, so beware, unless you have experienced other hot dishes before.
The house special fried rice is amazing, one of the best fried rice that we have had at any Chinese restaurant. Right blend of soy sauce, combined with lots of flavorful ingredients and lots of shrimp, chicken and pork to blend with the vegetable combinations.
From there, I would say that the Chinese eggplant was a huge success. I had never tried the Yu Xiang Sauce, but it was really nice. Probably a soy base with a hint of honey and spicy that just stayed in your mouth after each bite and the very soft eggplant that was buttery and soft with the crunchiness of the vegetables to provide some solid combinations that made this a fun and flavorful plate.
Last, but not least the House Special Flavored Duck, which is my step father's favorite craving. He has tried duck everywhere and while it was not his absolute favorite, he enjoyed it a lone. As the description says, it comes with bones, so if you do not like that, I would stay away. I on the other hand love duck, chicken, pretty much any kind of bones, because that is were the source of the flavor sits on most dishes.
The best part of the meal was that my mother was so pleased with our suggestion, that she paid the whole meal, so if you are lucky enough or around Framingham, bring someone along, who knows, you may eat a great meal for free!
Cheers!
