Bites: What’s new in East Bay food XXIX

July 3, 2013 / Jeff Yao / Press
Five spice pork

CHINA VILLAGE China Village in Albany reopened this week after a fire in spring 2012 forced it to close down. The beloved Szechuan spot (pictured, top: its five-spice pork), which has been in Albany for 15 years, has had a makeover, according to Inside Scoop SF. There’s a beautiful new banquet room (pictured, right) and a new cocktail menu. But chef-owner John Yao knows to stick to the much-loved menu. So expect to see the tank full of live crabs, fish and lobsters and the exotic sweetmeats, such as Szechuan-Style Spicy Boiled Leaf Tripe and Fire Charred Pork Kidney. The full menu has a few new dishes, mostly in the “Chef’s Signature Dishes” category; there are also clay pot and hot pot tweaks.China Village is at 1335 Solano Ave. Follow the restaurant’s Facebook page for updates.
