"A post shared by Two City Foodies (@twocityfoodie) on Feb 4, 2020 at 4:52pm PST. Han Dynasty serves authentic Szechuan cuisine, complete with the namesake Szechuan peppers. Their menu is unique in that it rates its food on a spiciness scale, but the spice levels can be adjusted based on preference."
"Historically, the Han Dynasty was a golden age in China many moons ago. Today, Han Dynasty is a gem of a restaurant group for lovers of spicy food in Philadelphia and beyond. The cuisine is Sichuan, and the spice level is as hot as you want it to be."

"In normal times, this will hopefully be another ideal destination for late-night karaoke and spicy Szechuan food (the kitchen stays open late!). But for now we’ll have to settle for digging in sans crowds. Go for chicken or pork sauteed with long hot pepper if you’re in the mood for some spice, or kick it up a notch with boiled beef or fish fillet doused with chili oil."
"Over in Chinatown, David's Mai Lah Wah is the late night capital of Philadelphia, staying open until 3 a.m. It's by no means the best Chinese food in Philly, but it does offer some of the best late night eats in the city. Come for the fried dumplings and salt-and-pepper wings and stay for the people-watching."
"A well-known spot for Philly’s post-shift restaurant workers for years, David’s Mai Lai Wah offers budget-friendly eats. While the experience is no-frills, the salt and pepper chicken wings, roast pork noodle bowls and walnut shrimp provide tasty sustenance. Where:David's Mai Lai Wah, 1001 Race Street"
"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. David’s Mai Lai Wah is extremely popular amongst late-night snackers. In fact, a lot of college students as well as those who are out clubbing stop by this place, as it’s open until 3 am."
"At Spice C, you’ll get large portions and delicious hand drawn noodle dishes and shaved noodle soups.
