Dan Dan mian (noodles) – the name is an onomatopoeia for the clacking of bamboo shoulder poles once worn by street vendors in Sichuan province. Food writer and tour guide Leo Moncel recreates this robust, intriguing dish that he fell in love with visiting Sichuan a decade ago.

Cucumber Salad
One of the most popular Chinese raw vegetable dishes, this refreshing salad has a subtle garlic taste and alluring complexity from 3 year aged Zhenjiang (chinkiang) vinegar and sesame oil. Cilantro on the side.

Dan Dan Mian
Fresh wheat noodles tossed in a soy, sesame and home-made chili oil sauce, topped generously with mild ground pork and pickled mustard greens and garnished with lip-tingling Sichuan pepper and green onion. Blanched yu choy greens round out the dish.
Also available #vegan with shredded firm tofu

Mango Rice Pearls
A simple dessert of contrasting textures – chewy rice and tapioca pearls with juicy mango pieces in a mango puree; chopped mint adds to the cooling effect.
