Nestled in Chinatown Point, there’s a spot called Qing Hua Jiao that’s all about dishing out hearty, no-frills Sichuan cuisine. This place isn’t about the glitz or glamour; it’s about enjoying straightforward, delicious food that warms the soul. We tried some items off Qing Hua Jiao’s menu, to give you a taste of what’s in store.
Dive into Qing Hua Jiao’s Heartwarming Menu
At Qing Hua Jiao, the menu is like a treasure trove of flavours waiting to be discovered. Each dish is a story of its own, steeped in tradition and spiced to perfection. Here’s a sneak peek at what you can expect:
Signature Sichuan Peppercorn Fish (招牌青花椒鱼)
Starting with our favourite, the Signature Sichuan Peppercorn Fish is recommended for a reason. It’s a beautiful balance of spicy and tangy, with the numbing kick of Sichuan peppercorns making each bite an adventure. The fish itself is fresh, flaky, and perfectly cooked, making it a must-try for anyone stepping into Qing Hua Jiao.
Sauteed Chicken Cartilage with Chilli (香辣掌中宝)
For those who love a bit of texture in their meal, the Sauteed Chicken Cartilage with Chilli is a real treat. It’s crunchy, spicy, and incredibly moreish. This dish is a testament to the fact that sometimes, it’s the simplest ingredients that pack the biggest punch. This dish is flavourful and not overly spicy.
Mapo Tofu (麻婆豆腐)
A classic that needs no introduction, the Mapo Tofu at Qing Hua Jiao is everything you want in this beloved dish. It’s rich, comforting, and has just the right amount of spice. While some might crave a bit more heat, it’s still a dish that beautifully represents the heart of Sichuan cuisine.
Salted Egg Yolk Griddle Cooked Shrimp (干锅大虾咸蛋黄)
The Salted Egg Yolk Griddle Cooked Shrimp brings a unique twist to the table. While the idea of combining succulent shrimp with rich salted egg yolk is mouthwatering, some diners might find themselves wishing for a stronger punch of that distinctive salted egg flavour.
Hot & Spicy Griddle Cooked Chicken Wings (干锅鸡翅麻辣)
And then there are the Hot & Spicy Griddle Cooked Chicken Wings – a dish that’s all about indulging your spicy cravings. While the dish does pack a small punch, be mindful of when you enjoy it, as it might overshadow the flavours of other dishes if not timed right.
