I can't think of any food I would rather have on a cold Christmas day than Little Pepper... I can almost feel these hot peppers warming me up right now. Luckily, it appears to be open (as are most Chinatown restaurants in NYC), so out I go--just as soon as I do some practicing!
Some pictures from a recent outing there by the tireless Jose...
Wontons in red hot oil:

My favorite cold appetizer, chicken in spicy sauce:

My new favorite rice dish here, the fried rice with Sichuan brined vegetable (what the name doesn't mention is the minced pork!):

Enhanced pork (similar to twice-cooked pork):

Braised sliced fish in spicy soup base:

Cauliflower with smoked pork belly:

Shredded pork with dried bean curd:

And, what is probably my favorite dish here, the whole fish with spicy minced pork:
