Along with the beancurd and fish, I think the dried radish and Chinese bacon was a real highlight.

I remember experiencing something similar at Chilli Cool with their pig ears. Unexpected, and all the better for it. <br /><br />I also really like the sound of the bean curd and fish, both look and sound spectacular.The Grubwormhttp://www.thegrubworm.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148635935379992641.post-32547873102098020212011-02-15T10:37:00.558+00:002011-02-15T10:37:00.558+00:00It was definitely a great meal - really impressive...It was definitely a great meal - really impressive - but what's unusual is just how long the place had been open, and for most of this time by all accounts not very good, before it finally got its act together.

I am so bad on Chinese cuisines though that I never really know what is Hunan and what is Sichuan. Next time I go I take a print out of your post. I have to try the steamed catfish!Ute@HungryinLondonhttp://www.hungryinlondon.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148635935379992641.post-76748746385401692612011-02-13T07:52:41.380+00:002011-02-13T07:52:41.380+00:00Everything looks delicious!Everything looks delicious!bar stoolshttp://www.kitchenstoolsdirect.co.uk/Bar-Stools-c4.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148635935379992641.post-23675478291719517422011-02-13T00:11:12.865+00:002011-02-13T00:11:12.865+00:00Glad to hear that Ba Shan is a good option for Hun...Glad to hear that Ba Shan is a good option for Hunanese food!

The Peng's tofu sounds especially appealing.<br /><br />I tried out Golden Day two weeks ago, by the way, and I made the mistake of showing up for Sunday lunch. All our dishes showed up incredibly quickly and tasted re-heated. A total bummer. Based on your and Mr. Noodles's recs, I'll have to try them again, though. We had a whole fish with chilies there that was silky and delish, so that was a promising sign.An American in Londonhttp://rwapplewannabe.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
