The true allure of Sichuan Pavilion lies in its captivating menu, a carefully curated selection of dishes designed to cater to a wide spectrum of palates. A standout recommendation is the Crispy Duck Half ($16.95). This dish is expertly prepared to achieve the perfect balance of irresistibly crispy skin and succulent, tender meat within – a must-try for any duck aficionado. For those seeking lighter yet equally flavorful options, the Sichuan Style Fried String Beans ($15.95) are a revelation. Fresh, crisp string beans are stir-fried to perfection, absorbing the dynamic and bold essence of authentic Sichuan spices.
Delving into the Chef’s Specialties section is highly recommended for an exceptional culinary exploration. The Sichuan Pavilion Beef Duet ($18.95) particularly impressed me. This dish is a masterful study in contrasts, presenting beef prepared in two distinct styles – one exquisitely crispy, the other melt-in-your-mouth tender. This duality creates a harmonious and exciting dining experience within a single dish. Seafood lovers will find delight in the Sesame Fried Jumbo Shrimp ($17.95). Each shrimp is generously sized, perfectly cooked, and coated in a crunchy sesame batter, making it another highlight from their extensive and enticing seafood offerings.
