The 2018/19 edition of The List's Eating & Drinking Guide is out now – only £7.95 (+p&p).

Located on a busy corner of Sauchiehall Street, Sichuan House (named after the province in south-west China) is a smart and spacious eatery, serving up generous portions perfect for sharing. Always doing a bustling trade, the restaurant’s extensive menu requires a bit of study before ordering but the huge amount of choice is made easier by handy photos of each dish and chilli pepper ratings depending on spiciness. And there is a lot of spice. Those looking to expand their palate can try hot and chilli frog legs, pork intestines and duck tongue but there are plenty of options for those wishing to play it slightly safer including Peking duck, shredded beef, noodles and fried rice. There is a lot of meat on the menu, but vegetarians can enjoy a variety of ‘Chinese greens’ including pak choi stir-fried or with garlic or water spinach. With fast and friendly service, Sichuan House offers truly authentic Chinese food and a unique dining experience not to be missed.
