This small eatery is popular with locals and visitors alike, thanks to its delicious dishes and casual, laid-back atmosphere with cool decor.

The standout dish at Kao Ge Yu is, of course, the spicy grilled fish. The fish is freshly grilled to perfection, then coated in a mouth-watering blend of Sichuan spices and herbs. The result is a flavorful and spicy dish that is sure to satisfy your taste buds. And with prices starting from as little as $15 for an entire fish, it’s also incredibly affordable.

There are a wide range of additional ingredients you can add into your delicious pot of chili oil. There are common ones such as instant noodles and tofu skin and the more exotic ones like quail eggs.

But it’s not just the grilled fish that makes Kao Ge Yu so popular. The restaurant also offers a range of tasty side dishes that are perfect for sharing. One example of a cold side dish is their century egg tofu.

This dish features creamy, silky tofu that is topped with slivers of century egg and a sprinkle of spring onions. It is a refreshing and light dish that perfectly balances the rich and spicy flavors of the grilled fish.

Other side dishes that goes well with your fish includes their signature 3-in-1 cold preserved vegetables, which I found to be quite helpful in soothing that chili burn.
