What to Eat at Chunyang Guan? A Guide to Their Signature Noodles and Sides.

Chunyang Guan Yu Xiang Pai Gu Mian on Jixiang Street is a humble yet legendary Chengdu noodle shop, beloved for its flavorful signature dish and authentic "fly restaurant" atmosphere where food takes center stage over ambiance.


纯阳小面
This is the restaurant's namesake dish and a fundamental Sichuan-style noodle. "Xiao Mian" translates to "little noodles," but it refers to a simple, classic bowl featuring a robust and aromatic red oil (chili oil) broth. The flavor is savory, numbing from Sichuan peppercorn (mala), and deeply fragrant. It's typically topped with chopped scallions and a bit of pork ribs.


椒香牛肉面
The springy white noodles form the perfect base, topped with a mix of minced beef and fiery red chili peppers that give the dish its signature peppery fragrance, and topped with freshly chopped celery and coriander.


鱼香排骨抄手
This is a brilliant fusion of the restaurant's two greatest hits! It takes the classic Sichuan Chao Shou (wontons, which are similar to dumplings but typically have a thinner skin and are served in a soup or sauce) and combines them with the iconic "Fish-Fragrant" flavor and their signature ribs. The wontons themselves are filled with pork, and they are served in the same beloved sweet, sour, salty, and slightly spicy "Yu Xiang" sauce that makes the ribs so famous.


绍子蒸蛋
This is a classic, comforting Chinese side dish. "Zheng Dan" is a silky-smooth savory egg custard, steamed to a perfectly tender, jiggly consistency. It's topped with "Shaozi" (or "Shaozi"), a flavorful minced meat sauce made with ground pork, mushrooms, and fermented soybeans, cooked in a savory and slightly sweet brown sauce.


八宝粥 (Ba Bao Zhou / Eight-Treasure Porridge)
A traditional sweet Chinese porridge, "Ba Bao Zhou" is a warm and comforting dessert or a mild breakfast. The "Eight Treasures" refer to a mix of grains, beans, nuts, and dried fruits.
