Tired of onion pancakes? Try these
Pan Fried Leek Turnovers (5.95). There's no sauce with these, but you can spoon a little of the hot chile sauce that sits on every table onto the top of the leeks, which are finely chopped. Also, you need to let these sit for a couple of minutes because they are hot, and we don't want you to burn your little tongue or the roof of your mouth.
One of the classic, simple home style dishes of Sichuan is
ma yi shang shu, or 'ants climb a tree'. On the menu here its called
Sauteed Vermicelli w/ Spicy Minced Pork (9.95). If you're not familiar with Asian vermicelli, they're generally made from mung beans, which is great if you're dodging 'white food' carbs. This was one of the best versions I've had in SF, and if you hold up some noodles in your chopsticks, the pork clings to them, giving cause for the name. They do have a propensity for using a lot of oil, so tell your server if you want less.
