- Authentic Handcrafted Zhong Dumplings (ChengDu) 荔枝巷钟水饺 (成都）$8.99Known historically as 'Zhong Shui Jiao,' Zhong Dumplings are a traditional snack from Chengdu city in Sichuan Province and are a part of Chengdu cuisine. This dish originated in the nineteenth year of the Guangxu period (1893). Initially, because the restaurant was located in Litchi Alley and the seasoning was heavily reliant on red chili oil, it was also referred to as 'Litchi Alley Red Oil Dumplings.' Zhong Dumplings exclusively use pork filling. When served, they are drizzled with specially prepared red chili oil.
- Tales of Chengdu Chicken: Baby Taro's Cluck 'n' 炖的稀溜耙的芋儿鸡 (成都)$22.99 • 85% (7)Chengdu's Chicken with Baby Taro is a classic delicacy of Chengdu. Legend has it that Royal Highness Zhu was the first ruler of Chengdu and one of the sons of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. He had a deep appreciation for food, especially the distinctive dishes of Chengdu.
Royal Highness Zhu's culinary wisdom and techniques were passed down to a talented chef named Mao. Inspired by the stories of Royal Highness Zhu, Mao created Chengdu's Chicken with Baby Taro as a tribute to this great ruler.
This dish combines carefully selected chicken and taro, ingredients that were cherished by Royal Highness Zhu. It beautifully captures the prosperity and abundance of the Royal Highness Zhu era.
Today, Chengdu's Chicken with Baby Taro symbolizes the city's rich history and culture. It has become a way for people to savor the flavors of Chengdu's culinary heritage and pay homage to Royal Highness Zhu. With every bite, the taste of history fills the palate, allowing people to experience the charm and legacy of Chengdu. - Brown Sugar Griddle Buns (ChengDu) 全成都最不正宗的红糖小锅盔$5.99 • 100% (8)The pot helmet is said to have originated in Shaanxi, originally as dry food for soldiers or civilian workers, and its roughness is thus evident. But as with many things, once they enter Chengdu, the land of heaven, they indeed become different. The brown sugar helmet is no exception; from the beginning, the white flour soon developed into brown sugar; any ingredients can be thought of with the helmet because the structure of the Chengdu pot helmet is hollow, so there is a lot of room for variation. The old white flour and pepper salt are still available in popular stores, but the brown sugar helmets are hard to find." 锅盔相传起源于陕西，本来是士兵或民工的干粮，其粗糙由此可见一斑。但正如很多东西一旦进入天府之国成都，肯定就会变得不一样。红糖锅盔亦不例外，由最开始的白面很快就发展为红糖，凡是能想的出的食材都可以跟锅盔搭配起来，因为成都锅盔的结构是中空的，所以有很大的变通余地。以前的白面、椒盐在大众小店尚还有售，但红糖锅盔却已经踪迹难觅。”

- Three Cannons (ChengDu) 成都娃娃莫法抗拒的三大炮$5.99 • 83% (12)Three Cannon is a traditional Chengdu, Sichuan Province snack and belongs to the ChengDu cuisine family. The main ingredients of San Da Pao include glutinous rice, brown sugar, sesame, and soybeans. The unique name, translating to "Three Big Cannons," originates from the unique preparation process. As the glutinous rice balls are tossed during preparation, they make a sound similar to the firing of cannons, hence the names "Iron Cannon," "Fire Cannon," and "Gun Cannon," collectively known as "Three Cannon."
Three Cannon is not served cold. Instead, the semi-finished buns are placed in a pot and kept warm over a gentle flame until they are ready to be done. This ensures that each serving of San Da Pao is still slightly generous when eaten. Known for its sweet and savory flavor, non-sticky texture, and affordable price, San Da Pao is widely loved. - ChengDu Magic Chili 把辣椒整成零食阿?你表跟我俩个冒皮皮? (成都）$8.99In the early Qing Dynasty, during the immigration procession of "Huguang immigrants filling Sichuan," the Chen family from Yongding County, Tingzhou, Fujian Province, landed with the immigration procession in the territory that originally belonged to Royal Highness Zhu hundreds of years ago, opening up wasteland and living a self-sufficient life. During the Xianfeng period, the descendants of the Chen family improved the original production techniques. When peppers were treated with oil, they were crispy and tasty, so the Chen family fried them until they were crisp, forming a crispy pepper, which was the prototype of the dish. In the "crispy pepper" created by Sichuan Governor Ding Baozhen, pepper is an essential ingredient. The best Sichuan Mumashan Erjiao peppers are chosen. The spicy pepper undergoes several processes, such as draining, coating with powder, and deep-frying, turning it into a spicy and tasty flavor rich in antioxidants. It satisfies the tangy taste of Chengdu people and is less likely to make the body feel unbalanced. It also adds vitamins, making it a significant presence in Sichuan spices. Later generations improved pepper preparation to accommodate more people's tastes, gradually forming it into what it is now.

- ChengDu Crunchy Sesame Balls 在成都的三个小闷墩儿$6.99Deep Fried Sesame Balls and I go a long way back—to when I was a little kid. We bought them in Chengdu city bakeries and snatched them fresh off dim sum carts, where they were neatly cut in half for convenient sharing.
They are made with a sticky rice flour dough, filled with a sweet paste, rolled in sesame seeds, and fried until crispy on the outside but still soft and chewy on the inside. - Artisanal ChengDu Pork Sausage 纯手工柴火慢熏香肠 (成都)$15.99Embrace the heat with our spicy Szechuan sausage, a testament to resilience and culinary innovation. Historically, the Szechuan region, with its challenging geography, faced a scarcity of resources. As a result, locals turned to crafting dried sausages, a method that allowed them to savor the richness of meat throughout the year. This tradition, born out of necessity, has become a cherished practice. Even today, most chengdu households take pride in preparing their own dried sausages, a nod to a legacy that is as flavorsome as it is enduring. This is more than just a dish; it's a celebration of a region's history and its flavorful journey through time.
