For those that like to feel the burn, make a trip to Karaiya Spice House for some Hunan-style heat. Authentic Hunan dishes are beautifully presented at this award-winning, lair of spice. A bouquet of Hunan chilis accompanies many of Karaiya’s menu items, but the restaurant does offer milder fare to tame the flames. Signature items include smoked ribs, steamed fish with chilis and flame-baked prawns wrapped in foil. Located on the 3rd floor of Sanlitun Village, Karaiya will also win you over with its elegant and understated design. Just remember that “normal” here is still very spicy.
