Restaurant: Chuan Fu
Location: 1035 N Orlando Ave #105, Winter Park, FL 32789
If you are looking to add some spice to your life, from a food perspective, then check out Chuan Fu up in Winter Park. The dishes are HOT, both figuratively and literally. My wife and I went on a little lunch date and we ordered 3 things, the ShuiZhu Fish Fillet, the ChuanFu Short Ribs, and the Spicy Beef Brisket Noodle Soup. Warning, we asked for everything to be on the milder side, and it was still pretty spicy.
The Spicy Beef Brisket Soup was really good. It’s the type of thing I would like to have on a rainy day at home. It’s comforting and warm. The Short Ribs were hot. The flavor was solid, and the portion was enough for two people. BUT the star of the show was this fish.
The way to eat this is to have a bowl of rice, grab a piece, and douse it with some of the sauce. It was absolutely great. The fish was fresh and cooked perfectly. The lightness of the fish paired with the spicy chilis made a mouthwatering combination. The rice then cools down your palette so you aren’t overwhelmed by how hot everything is. This is something I think everyone should try.
So, if you are in the mood for something a little spicy and different, go check them out!
