We wouldn’t name ourselves connoisseurs of Chinese language delicacies, however we do have numerous favourite Chinese language spots round Columbus, from N.E. Chinese language to ChiliSpot to Fundamental Moon. This week we received to expertise a brand new eatery on Bethel Highway, Fiery Sky Asian Kitchen, and I may see this getting into our common rotation.
Fiery Sky opened in storefront that beforehand housed a pair of Mediterranean spots. It’s operated by Lu Sha, who initially opened Xia Xia Western Chinese language Delicacies within the Kenny Centre Mall and Mashida Hen in Delaware.
The buying plaza across the restaurant will probably be acquainted to many diners, because it’s dwelling to eateries like New India, Meshikou, KPOT, and lots of others.
We sampled our method by the menu and actually loved every of the dishes. There have been flavors each new and acquainted, and it was a testomony to the standard (okay, and possibly our starvation) that we polished nearly all of it off.
We selected a couple of favorites and adopted Lu’s options as properly. The cucumber salad affords a pleasant, refreshing begin. The cucumbers are sliced and nearly barely smashed, then completely dowsed in a zesty oil.
The salt and pepper crispy pork is simple to like, with tender items of pork fried with a properly seasoned and crispy breading.
And we’re by no means ones to show down spicy dumplings, so it was just about assumed we’d snag a bowl of those Sichuan spicy wontons. They’re handmade, stuffed with pork, and drenched in a spicy oil. Professional-tip: save the oil to dump it over your rice later.
Our boys are one thing of specialists in Basic Tso’s hen, and so they gave particular props to Fiery Sky’s model. The hen is tender, the sauce flippantly candy with out being too heavy or cloying. I particularly cherished how the broccoli soaked up the sauce.
One in all Fiery Sky’s signatures is the dry pot dishes, so we tasted the dry pot cauliflower with spices. It’s stir-fried with thick-cut greens and items of pork, served over warmth in a small wok on the desk, so it’s scorching and scorching.
Lu really helpful a variety from their noodles, so we tried the stir-fried udon noodles with hen. All of it got here collectively very properly in a flavorful sauce.
And we love a superb Chongqing spicy popcorn hen. Fiery Sky didn’t disappoint. The diced, breaded, and fried hen thighs had been very tender and peppery.
So for those who’re a fan of Chinese language meals, I feel Fiery Sky is definitely a spot to help. There’s one thing for everybody, regardless of how adventurous or how acquainted you’re with Chinese language delicacies. The service was very pleasant and tremendous fast, and the menu massive sufficient that I feel we’ll have to pay a pair extra visits to attempt much more!
