鈻笍Which is the most famous restaurant in San Francisco Chinatown? It must be this old but renowned Sichuan restaurant, Z&Y Restaurant. Although I have ordered takeout from them during the pandemic, this is my first time dining in, and I still love it!

Hotpot with Duck Blood and Tofu
I'm craving it! I can only be fully satisfied with this! The duck blood has a smooth, tender, and crispy texture, without any fishy taste, and it's so satisfying to bite into! I love eating something warm when the weather is cold! The ingredients are incredibly rich: beef tripe, luncheon meat, wide noodles, seaweed, and more.
Boiling Fish in Chili Oil
A must-order for fish lovers! When this big pot came out, it was truly stunning! It has such a substantial feeling! The aroma hits your senses, with a layer of spicy chili and the fragrance of the oil drizzled over it. The fish inside is tender and mouthwatering!
Garlic Pork Slices
It exudes the luxury of a five-star hotel, with exquisite presentation and rolled cucumber slices and pork. Dip it in the sauce and pour it over the top, it still has the same taste but with new and layered textures.
Five Combination Platter: Mouth-Watering Chicken, Spicy Beef, Cold Cucumber Salad, Sesame Oil Bamboo Shoots, and Pepper Hua Hua Pork Tripe
A combination of the most popular five cold dishes. My personal favorite is the 'Pepper Hua Hua Pork Tripe,' I've ordered it several times for takeout! It's so vibrant green in color, and I was initially worried it might be a disappointment, but it turned out to be delicious, with tender pork tripe stir-fried! The Spicy Beef is also their secret recipe, perfect for taking it home and enjoying it while binge-watching.
Signature Camphor Tea Smoked Duck
Definitely a must-order for meat lovers. The portion of half a duck is very friendly, leaving room in your stomach to enjoy even tastier dishes~
Mapo Tofu
Their Mapo Tofu is truly flavorful, and the tofu itself is not bland. The seasoning for the Mapo Tofu is dense, but it's a bit too spicy for rice.
Iron Plate Shredded Cabbage
If you want some vegetarian options, I recommend the Iron Plate Shredded Cabbage. The combination of vegetarian and non-vegetarian ingredients can help neutralize the spiciness of Sichuan cuisine.
Red Oil Dumplings
Among the main dishes, the Red Oil Dumplings are a must-have. The dumplings from this restaurant are as big as fists. One dumpling is equivalent to three. They are filled with fragrant chili oil, vinegar, and a hint of sweetness.
Dan Dan Noodles
Lastly, a bowl of Dan Dan Noodles, after all, it is the leading actress in Sichuan cuisine. They really give you plenty of sauce! After each noodle is coated with the sauce, the heavy flavor stimulates your taste buds. I really want to eat this every day!

鈻笍This restaurant has been popular in San Francisco for a long time, and it is still as hot as ever. There are no disappointments; each dish caters perfectly to the taste buds. After all, maintaining consistent quality for ten years is truly rare. When it comes to Sichuan cuisine among the countless restaurants, I still choose this one.
