In Sichuan dialect, ‘da ya ji’ means feasting, which perfectly suits the bustling vibe of this unpretentious joint. For over 10 years, the regulars have been flocking here for home-style Sichuan cooking at friendly prices. Its house-made pickles star in signature dishes like bighead carp with pickled green Sichuan peppercorns. Braised duck boasts briny umami with mild smoky undertones. Finish with tofu pudding in osmanthus syrup.
