In trying to find a tasty place that could comfortably seat 12 in Albany, I resorted to Chowhound.com. A restaurant which kept coming up is China Village on Solano. The Chowhounds noted it for it's authentic Sichuan cuisine (which you have to ask for specially -- most gweilo are given the American Chinese menu).
Well, the restaurant is not much to look at from the outside, but the meal we discovered inside was delightful. Here's what was left of it:

Particular favorites included a fish soup with chilis, cumin lamb, pork shoulder, boiled beef, and eggplant.
Posted by peterme at February 24, 2004 08:42 AM | TrackBackWe discovered China Village on New Years Day, and we're very impressed. You have to ask for the spicy menu in order to get some of the great dishes. The boiled beef soup is neither boiled or beef, but it is exteremely spicy and very tasty. The 12 hour pork shoulder is incredible. Tender, fall of the bone - great with Onion Cakes.
The water dumplings are incredible, some of the most flavorful appetizers I have ever had. Get two orders.
We've ordered out several times, and every time they give us a tasy freebie.
