每逢3月又是轉季的時候，春天到來，雨水逐漸變多，坊間有很多說法指出吃辣能夠祛濕。有見及此，南坊中菜廳將於3至4月推出限定四川菜譜，師傅推介多款傳統的四川菜色，每款菜色都加入大量香料，以滿足嗜辣之人。
若要找出最繁複的中國菜，四川菜定必名列前位。四川菜手法層疊繁複，用料有所謂的「三香」和「三椒」，並用上多種醬汁製作而成。南坊中菜廳推出的四川菜色共有8款。用料離不開花椒八角等香料。
如果你不能夠接受太過刺激的挑戰，此麻辣口水雞便是入門之選! 師傅首先會放滿爽口的青瓜作底，再來於嫩滑的雞肉上加上特製調配的醬料如辣油、花椒、八角及其他香料，最後淋上蔥花、花生碎及芝麻。此菜色的重點在於醬料，特製調配的醬料使味道香辣開胃，油而不膩。配上清甜的青瓜，定必食慾大增。
如你是嗜辣之人又喜歡經歷舌尖麻痺的的快感，水煮牛肉便可滿足你的慾望。這道菜餚是傳統四川菜，鮮紅的醬汁就好像與客人宣戰，香辣的味道正攻佔客人的味蕾。師傅先爆香辣椒乾、指天椒、花椒、蔥花等香料製作出麻辣湯料，再加入牛肉燙熟。此做法可以保持肉質細嫩。另外薯粉是此道菜色的靈魂所在。相比坊間的薯粉，師傅使用薄但闊身的粉條，粉條便可盡吸麻辣湯料的精華，增加了整道菜色的口感。越吃越過癮!
還有多款菜色如剁椒蒸魚雲、川式風味牛柳粒等。價錢由港幣158元起。供應期由3月1日至4月30日於南坊中菜廳提供。
