Chinese$$
Brightly glowing lanterns and dark lacquered wood set the scene at Spicy Fish, where attentive waitstaff cheerfully overturn the stereotype of taciturn Chinatown service. A pictorial menu helps you navigate your way out of your comfort zone with things like Sichuan-style spicy chicken - tender slices of cold poached chook in a jammy red sauce spiked with curiously numbing Sichuan peppercorns - and well-fried green beans seasoned with crisp minced pork and salty black beans. If you dare, try chicken with hot chilli - the chunks of meat are buried in an avalanche of dried chillies, popped open like festive firecrackers.
