Yu Xiang Eggplant from Birds of a Feather

Yu Xiang Eggplant

Here was the yuxiangqiezi from Birds of a Feather, a place that I haven't been back to in ages. The dishes were dressed up with lots of fancy garnishes; their barramundi chazuke was more upscale (complete with a theatrical presentation) compared to the one at Sichuan Alley. Some things felt a bit forced, like the big chunks of spring onion crumble in the eggplant above, or a burrata that sat in a sesame and peanut sauce. But they were mostly still pretty good, not to mention spicy, including the amusingly-named (and very innocent-looking) "spicy good slime shine" noodles. I should go back more often, especially since I liked the service too.
