Dainty Sichuan Food
Dainty Sichuan Food on Lonsdale Street serves noodles and individual hotpots. Choose your soup base and raw ingredients, then cook at your own personal cooktop inlaid into the table.
Base flavours include seafood, mushroom and spicy (and they're not kidding when they say spicy!). You can add a range of meats and seafood ingredients from tendon and tripe to pork and wagyu beef.
The restaurant seats over 200 in an ornate dining room with carved wooden screens.
Pro tip: put your trust in the waiter if the side dish station is a little overwhelming. You'll be amazed at what they can come up with.
