Here's what we returned home from our trip to find!The worst part is that it had melted and re-froze a few times before we returned home to shovel it so it was a mixture of snow and ice. It took me several hours the first day back to clear off the drive!
It was a great trip and with the help of our friends Tracy and Chris we were able to find a couple of replacement SiChuan restaurants. One of our favorites had been torn down along with Tim's Texas Roadhouse, but that's a whole 'nother story that I'll get to later!
Anyway, here's a few pictures of some of the cuisine we sampled at a place called "Spice Spirit":
Spicy Chicken - This was crispy, tender, spicy hot, and delicious!
Numb Mouth Beef - Those little peppercorn things floating around are the infamous Hua Jiao that is the secret to authentic SiChuan cooking! This dish lived up to it's name too! 
Lettuce Root - Awesome presentation, and a nice cool soothing side dish to go with the two above
Kung Pao Shrimp - A wonderful sweet, tart, and spicy dishStay tuned because there's more photos and stories from the trip to come!
