What happened to Red Chili in East Norriton?
About 6 months ago a new Chinese spot called Red Chili Chengdu cuisine opened in East Norriton in the shopping plaza that also has Chick Fil A, Via Venetos, an Asian market and some other spots - I believe it took over the Mexican spot in the shopping plaza. I went there in January shortly after it opened, liked it so much that I went again a few weeks later thinking this would be my go-to Chinese spot. It was Szechuan style with legitimately spicy dishes with perfectly sized portions. All the food I tried, from the Dan Dan noodles to Mapo tofu, was delicious.
I was looking to go again last month but Google Maps says that the location is “permanently closed” - I thought it had to be an error so I literally drove there to see for myself. It seems to have abruptly closed with no explanation, all social media is dark. I’d love to know what happened. All the reviews of this place were good and it literally just opened a few months prior. Now I am back to the drawing board to find a good Chinese Szechuan spot in the area. Peter Chang in KOP is next on my list which sounds really good too, but KOP is farther away than this place which is right down the street from where I live. Such a bummer.
