The restaurant is barely 2 months old, located on Olive Blvd. across from Wonton King and Seafood City. Pull into the parking lot of the generically named Asian Supermarket and it'll be on the far right. There's no real sign up yet.

Yummy17 has a few things going for it:

The full menu is in English. The full menu does not have bullshit American Chinese food on it. The staff speak English and are very friendly. The food is top notch. If you open the window shades inside the restaurant, you can spy on people in the grocery store.

These pictures are from two separate meals there. The first was with my Chinese friend Lily, a master of dumplings and a hilariously harsh critic of Chinese food. She did all the ordering for us, which started with [symple_highlight color="blue"]A09: hot and spicy duck tongues[/symple_highlight]. I've had duck tongues at bars before, but it was always fried. All I could think was jesus, look at all these tongues. This is a whole colony of ducks.

Flavor-wise, they were really good thanks to a thin sauce made up of a not-too-hot chili oil, I think. I believe they're braised, as they're very tender, but difficult to eat for a novice like myself. There's cartilage in the middle, so you sort of bite and pull the meat off. I made a huge mess.

This is true Szechuan food. It's not just chili oil, chilies, and burning bowels. There's nuance and flavors not seen elsewhere - like the use of cumin! I had no idea that cumin was used in China at until eating these kebabs (Google tells me it originated in the Xinjiang region in Northeast China, bordering on all the -Stans). This grill platter is a mix of A19: Lamb, A17: Beef, and A21: Quail, the star of which is the quail. It's $2.99 per quail half, which seems like a great deal to me.
