Chuan Court Sichuan Cuisine (川香阁) – Affordable Chongqing Grilled Fish that opens till 1 am

Located along MacPherson Road, this small and unassuming store is camouflaged amidst a row of shophouses. The menu is filled with lots of Sichuan dishes and you can expect to find most Sichuan dishes that you crave, being available. As with most Chinese restaurants, it’s recommended to come by if you have groups of 3 or larger to be able to order a greater variety of the food they have available.

Deep Fried Spicy Chicken 辣子鸡
La Zi Ji! If you’ve yet to try this dish, do give it a try! Lightly coated chicken, deep fried with chillies, peanuts and spring onions, this dish accentuates the crispiness of the chicken whilst imbuing the chicken with fragrance of the peanuts and the spiciness of the chillies. With this dish, you can’t really go wrong, it’s simple and easy to cook and it’s of decent quality here. The dish was filled with more chicken as compared to other places where most dishes tend to contain more peanuts and chillies. 

Stir Fried Mutton with Onion 葱爆羊肉
The mutton was clean, without much gamey taste and yet also absorbing the fragrance of the onions. It tastes alright, and is good for people who aren’t a fan of the gamey taste but in terms of portion size, it’s actually quite little and would be probably just a dish for 1-2 pax only. 

Jinmulu Chong Qing Grilled Fish 金目魲烤鱼
This is the best dish and probably the most worth it of them all. At the price of only $26+, this grilled fish is really affordable and contains quite a bit of meat for the price! It’s not exactly the best quality fish, but it’s large for the price and can satisfy your cravings if you have cravings for Chongqing grilled fish often! You can also choose to order sides to throw into the fish as well to be more satisfied.

Chuan Court Sichuan Cuisine (川香阁)

Being a sichuan restaurant, it also offers many other dishes and even mala! There’s a counter inside for you to choose the ingredients from. With the large selection of choices, it’s ideal for families to head over for a meal. Not exactly the best that Sichuan cuisine has to offer, it still contains many affordable and value for money options like the chong qing grilled fish as well as the deep fried spicy chicken.

We would recommend coming by if you tend to have cravings for chongqing grilled fish especially at night if you’re looking to have supper, since it is open till 1 am in the morning. It is really great for satisfying the cravings for its price. Especially great when you’re bringing a friend or two along to share.
