Northern Chinese-style cuisine hidden in an Irvine shopping plaza, Tri-Village is home to the county's best rendition of Peking duck. Other great dishes abound, as well: a stew of chitterlings, blood cubes, pickled cabbage and chiles with the great translated name "5 a.m. intestine blaze" because of what its potent combo will do to your digestive tract before the next sunrise.

Roasted to a gleaming mahogany finish, the lacquered bird is presented for inspection table-side before it is carved by servers more attentive than any you'd meet in the San Gabriel Valley. Watch and drool as the brittle, spun-sugar shards of skin are carefully removed, each precious crisped strip portioned onto round after round of pliant,... More »
In Mandarin, it's called wu geng chang wang--"5 a.m. intestine blaze"--referring to a stew set over an alcohol flame that gets started in the wee hours. If you've been looking for a place to get your chitlin on but want something besides the Creole soup of potatoes and the Cajun trinity of onions, bell peppers and celery, then head for this northern Chinese restaurant and order a bowl of pork intestines, tofu, cubes of desiccated blood, Chinese sauerkraut and...
