The Orthodox Cafe opens its door to the Sichuan Spice Night event hosted by .
The journey continues will to the Chinese province of Sichuan in eastern China next to Tibet, where chicken is prepared in a mouthwatering traditional way, the so called Saliva Chicken.
The chicken is poached in an aromatic broth, then served in a chilli oil sauce (which integrates bold and rich flavours from spices like Sichuan peppercorn, Bird’s-eye chilli, star anise, etc.). Every bite is spicy, tangy, savoury and mouthwatering. Hence the name, Saliva Chicken.
The dish is usually served cool. So this time, we decided to pair it with rice noodles in a hot broth.
For those who prefer things non-spicy, we can replace the chilli oil sauce with a mild sesame sauce.
Vegan option is available.
We will be serving appetizer, the Vegan dumplings with minced tofu, sh*take mushroom and napa cabbage served with a chilli dip.
For main dish you can choose between chicken with noodles or vegan option.
For dessert, you can have Pandan Jelly with coconut milk and young coconut strips.
Prices:
- Dumplings: 2,5€
- Saliva Chicken (or vegan option): 8,5€
- Pandan jelly and coconut milk: 2,5€
See you this Saturday! 😉
