Sichuan Spice Chinese Restaurant

A busy restaurant is normally a good sign and Sichuan Spice certainly had the punters rolling in just after opening. Upon entering I smiled looking around to see a beautiful and restrained, but definately Chinese dining room. Lovely partitions with good space between tables and a tasteful selection of music added ambience too.<br/ <br/ Ordering is bit left of field. No menu and table orders here that I was offered. Next to the entry is a large display of backlit photos of the dishes available. A very good selection but hot and cold dishes are all mixed together.

Massive plates of spicy goodness. Nice and loud and feels like a time warp. Pretty much what you want from a Sunnybank experience. Not much to drink (4x being the only beer on offer), but hell, that's nothing to cry about, do you really need pointless craft beers at every place you go...?

Dishes taste pretty authentic, good menu，fast serving of dishes. Acceptable price. The waitresses do need to be trained more, not feeling friendly.
