Hip Hot

My family and I decided to try this spot because my sister made a recommendation stating that the crab is worth trying. We came on a Saturday night and it was a full house inside. The inside is brightly lit with a nice crab painting by the kitchen. The chairs aren't that comfortable so know that going in because the chairs are relatively shorter than the table. Onto the food: please excuse the names of dishes because we ordered in Chinese and I don't know the English names 1. Dungeness Crab presentation looked simple and plain. The little golden balls are corn, which I've never tried with crab so it was nice to try something new. 2. Tofu with crab meat sauce was probably my favorite dish we tried. At first, it looked like egg sauce but I believe it was the salted egg yolk sauce. I mixed that in with the fried corn from the crab and it was delicious. 3. Stir fried string beans is as basic as its name. Nothing really amazes me at any Chinese restaurant because you can't really do much. 4. Beef Tendon: not a fan of it but it was okay 5. Fish & cucumber and 1000 year old preserved egg soup?? When we had it, the soup turned cold because the restaurant ran out of bowls and we're washing them. So I wasn't a fan of it since it became cold but I'm sure it would've been good. 6. Dan Dan noodles were flavorful but tons of oil. If you do order it, you should try asking for less oil

Absolutely delicious Szechuan food in Monterey Park area of Los Angeles. Everything was balanced and perfectly cooked and it was not absurdly spicy despite being Szechuan. Delicious and I wrote a blog post.

For me this is the best Chinese (specifically Sichuan?) in LA. If you can get them to make the plum juice do it- everything on the menu delicious.

Favorite sichuan spice restaurant in LA. Great taste, highly recommend
