    The BEST Sichuan in the area is at Chengdu 1 on Pompton Ave in Cedar Grove, less than a mile from the intersection of Prospect and Bloomfield Avenues (basically where W. Orange, Verona and Montclair intersect)! It's on the lower 'level' of the Kings (Supermarket) shopping center--next to the movie theater. Authentic Sichuan that we haven't found anywhere else!
    Try the lamb in special pepper sauce, spicy baby wontons (you'll want multiple orders of these, trust me!), ants on a tree, twice-cooked pork (belly), and...and...just about anything else (except for fried items like salt and pepper prawns) will travel well. You will NOT be disappointed!
    Unfortunately they don't have a website, but go and read the menu and the specials they post on the wall. Enjoy!
