The menus are online and the authentic dishes appear to be more limited than Sichuan Gourmet or Sichuan Garden. I did notice, however, that there are almost twice as many dishes on the Chinese menu than the English menu. I'm having some of my Chinese friends at work translate for me. I'll post that info when I get it but I plan to get over there ASAP. http://www.sichuanpalace.net/ Thu Jul 31 07:33:14 -0700 2008 23030 Dinsdale45 1 3921372 Nice to see all the attention this post received.

Many sichaun fans over there as well as devotees of Billerica's Sichuan Gourment. Please post your review and consider doing it on the Boston Board.
