NEW SICHUAN
I myself am not a fan of your typical american chinese takeout style food. Its probably the reason it took me years of hearing about this little hole-in-the-wall restaurant to finely go and see what all the buzz was about. It seemed anytime someone asked for suggestions for good Chinese cuisine online, multiple suggestions for New Sichuan were given.
New Sichuan in Winston-Salem, NC, is a hidden gem for lovers of bold and authentic Asian flavors. The restaurant's menu features a delightful array of spicy dishes that pack a punch, including their standout Dan Dan Noodles. These noodles are perfectly chewy, with a deep, savory sauce that brings together a wonderful balance of heat, richness, and the signature numbing sensation of Sichuan peppercorns. The Pork Soup Dumplings are another must-try—delicate and filled with a burst of hot, flavorful broth that pairs beautifully with a dipping sauce of your choice.
One of the highlights of dining at New Sichuan is their Crispy Garlic Chicken. The dish is a textural masterpiece, with tender, juicy pieces of chicken encased in a crunchy garlic-laden coating. Each bite delivers an explosion of garlic flavor, mingled with the addictive heat of chili peppers. It's the perfect dish for anyone who enjoys intense, savory flavors. The menu offers many other spicy options, all of which showcase the restaurant's mastery of traditional Sichuan cooking techniques. For lovers of Seafood, they have a dish called Fish in Sichuan Style Sauce that is excellent and has plenty of kick.
Despite its impressive food, New Sichuan remains humble in appearance.

The modest setting only adds to the charm, allowing the food to take center stage. New Sichuan proves that you don’t need a fancy location to serve up some of the most exciting and authentic flavors in town.
