Beefed-up Sichuan street food

Sichuan hotpot chain Banhua Chuanchuanxiang recently opened a new branch in the Sanlitun area of Beijing. Chuanchuan used to be street food where ingredients are placed on a skewer and boiled in soup. At Banhua, however, different flavors of beef skewer are the highlight－the beef is paired with many other ingredients on the skewer, including bamboo shoots, pickled cabbage, coriander and pickled chili.
