Chef Anita Feng’s culinary journey led her to create J’ai Feng, a unique Szechuan grocer and snack bar in Montreal. What began as a pandemic pastime blossomed into a venture that showcases her exceptional red oil and other traditional ingredients. Situated on Beaubien Street in Little Italy, this intimate space seats only four at the bar but offers a treasure trove of takeout options. Anita’s offerings include simple hot dishes, fresh salads, and marinated meats, in collaboration with local butchers. J’ai Feng aims to democratize Chinese cuisine, providing detailed descriptions to help customers navigate and use the products at home.
