Long time no Sichuan food. As the weather had turned cooler again, maybe it was time for some hot and spicy food! The destination this time was 川之源 at 西營盤.For lunch, they served two types of lunch sets for two including an appetiser, mains, veggies, rice, soft drinks or dessert at a price of $248. As set out on their menu, they had non spicy options as well. It was considerate of them to specify the spicy and vegetarian dishes clearly on the menu.

For lunch, they served two types of lunch sets for two including an appetiser, mains, veggies, rice, soft drinks or dessert at a price of $248. As set out on their menu, they had non spicy options as well. It was considerate of them to specify the spicy and vegetarian dishes clearly on the menu.
Their tableware was quite pretty and rice tea was served rather than normal tea.
蒜泥白肉 Sliced Pork Belly with Garlic Sauce
I was quite a fan of 蒜泥白肉. This 蒜泥白肉 was quite well seasoned that it was not overly spicy but slightly sour with strong flavour of garlic. There were around 9 slices of pork belly. Some chopped spring onions were sprinkled on top. It was a very appetising dish and good to eat with plain rice.
蕃茄魚片 Boneless Fish Slices in Tomato Soup
My lunch partner fancied something non spicy so we went for this tomato soup. The bowl was giant with quite a lot of fish fillets. The fish fillets were really boneless because they were sole fillets. We were quite surprised to see sole fillets in Sichuan fish soup. There were quite some fresh tomato pieces in the bowl. Some sliced ginger and garlic and also chopped spring onion were added to the soup. The soup was quite rich in tomato that we finished all the soup. It was such a healthy dish. It was obviously free of oil and MSG that we didn't feel thirsty afterwards.
清炒油麥菜 Fried Chinese Lettuce in Garlic Sauce
My lunch partner preferred this healthy vegetarian dish. Portion was reasonable and it was not overly oily. Healthy!
Plain Rice
The bowl of plain rice was so big. Each of us got one bowl.

桂花冰粉 Osmanthus Jelly
Of course we went for this dessert rather than soft drinks! This dessert was outstanding as it smelt and tasted super great of osmanthus yet it was not overly sweet. A very refreshing end to the meal!
Seating was comfortable with pretty strong air conditioning. Service was very efficient. There was no service charge over lunch!
