A new facade is up on Forward Ave. in Squirrel Hill:
Chengdu Gourmet. Work is still being done on the interior at 5840 Forward Ave. (
map), though the restaurant does have a website and
a menu.
And
speaking of Sichuan, I'll have to check and see if it's a sister location of Sichuan Gourmet further up Murray Ave.--or the result of a split--as Chengdu Gourmet's menu is identical to
a previous version of Sichuan Gourmet's. The Chinese name (老四川, Old Sichuan) references the other spot, too, though
it's not an uncommon name. Both are regions of China; Chengdu is the capital of Sichuan province.
