Thanks for the report!
Long-time fans seemed to think that China Village never fully recovered after the fire in the early 2010s. After the fire, staff went to Happy Golden Bowl/Ancient Szechuan, and later opened Sichuan Style on Solano. The inaugural Sichuan chef (Liu) is at Royal Feast in Millbrae and folks can find many China Village favorites at Sichuan Fortune House (Pleasant Hill), and Sichuan House (Walnut Creek).
