Why You Need to Visit Templo Modern Szechuan Fusion!

Nestled inside Dapitan 55 lot in Quezon City, across a carwash, is a quaint restaurant offering authentic Szechuan dishes, Templo Modern Szechuan Fusion. Walking distance from it is a real temple, the beautiful Avalokiteshvara Holy Temple.

AMBIANCE

The moment I stepped inside Templo, I felt like I was transported to a different place. The outside was literally designed like a temple. And inside, you will find an assortment of exquisite Chinese curio. There are bracelets, sword, fish figurine, herbs, god statues, etc.

Opening September last year, Templo got its name due to the fact that the owner is from mainland China, plus in Sichuan there is a lot of temples.

Szechuan food is spicy. It actually brought to mind a Chinese movie, the Road Less Travelled (2010) starring Louis Koo. The female lead cooks with A LOT of chilies, but I can't remember which province she came from though.

FOOD

One can have the level of spiciness adjusted according to preference, for all the dishes.
There is 40% and 20% off promo on selected dim sum from 2 PM to 5 PM and 8 PM to 10 PM.

Appetizer and dimsum (full list is in the Menu book inside the resto):
