"Szechuan pepper is the hallmark to Szechuan Cuisine. The name comes from the chinese providence it originates from. Unknown to many, Szechuan pepper isn't a pepper at all! It is the pink prickly dry husk of a seed. ... Spicy and desirably mouth numbing.... Szechuan pepper creates that signature harmonious Emei flavor when it is paired with the sweet, salty, and fatty nuances of Szechuan cuisine." #EMeiRestaurant #Szechuan #chinesefood #chinatown #philly #visitphilly #phillylove #phillychinatown #familyowned #foodporn #tradition #spicy #wokandroll #red #redpepper #spiceupyourlife See more

Today, we might refer to it as umami and EMei packs plenty of it into each and every dish. Quality Sichuan cooking values the essential xian that red chile oil, garlic, ginger, and other pungent ingredients bring. Order from EMei today and taste the xian among the delectable spicy flavors!

Sorry, I can’t take your call right now -- I’ve got a lot on my plate.

There's nothing like the first bite.

If you could choose, what would it be?

I’ve had enough noodles. - Said no one ever
