Vegan Mao Cai at Si Wei Mao Cai — tiascaz's Review (Feb 19, 2025)

@vikas review of this had me too intrigued to not try it. I was my no means hungry at this point, so when this monster bowl of spicy hot oil with a mountain of ingredients arrived I was very intimidated. It was delicious, my toppings of lotus root, tofu, potato noodles, and cabbage were nicely soaked in the hot spicy Szechuan oil mildly numbing my tongue and waking up my senses all at the same time. The chewiness of the potato noodles was so nice, as well as the crunchiness of the lotus root. It was not too spicy in my opinion, but the amount of oil and Szechuan definitely wreaks a bit of havoc on the stomach. I am sad to say I did not get anywhere close to finishing this dish:( #hugeportions
