Chilispot brings the heat, flavor in ace Sichuan dishes

Back when “Sichuan” was almost always spelled “Szechuan” in Columbus restaurants, referencing that southwestern Chinese province generally meant that the food being served would contain chile. Unfortunately, in those days, authentic Sichuan flavors would rarely accompany the botanical heat.
While recently enjoying a wide range of intense and delicious dishes from Chilispot a terrific new Sichuan specialist a smile formed on my delightfully overstimulated mouth as I thought about how far Chinese food has come in Columbus.
