Numbing measured apart from heat.
We show numbing, heat and aroma on three separate scales, so you know what you are ordering before it arrives.
Hanyuan green peppercorn and Pixian doubanjiang. The numbing arrives after the heat — this is our baseline dish.
"Spicy ★★★" cannot tell numbing from heat. We split them into three independent scales, shown by order, shape and colour. No words are used, so one graphic reads across all five languages.
From Sichuan peppercorn. A vibration on the tongue, an axis of its own.
From chili. What lands on the throat and lips — the part usually called spicy.
Doubanjiang, star anise, cassia. Aroma remains even when numbing and heat drop.
Numbing and heat level. Both arrive at once.
Aroma-led, low numbing and heat. Reads as a starter.
A solid bar means measured at zero. Empty slots mean not yet rated. The two are never mixed.
Ask for a milder preparation and we will lower the numbing while keeping the aroma.
All specified allergens are listed in full on each dish page, including those not present. Please call if anything is unclear.
This is not a contest of heat. The peppercorn works, the aroma stays. We only keep that order.
From two to twenty-four. A room with a door, for business dinners and for family.
Fully enclosed with a door. A round table for sharing — our most requested room for business dinners.
Divided by a bamboo screen. For small gatherings.
Set courses, catered bento, full buyout. Invoicing available.
Online booking is a request. We will confirm by phone or email after checking availability.
