Description:

	I thought sure that KW had been to Jing Jing previously,
	but there does not seem to be a review for it in the
	archives.  Jing Jing is a favorite for those who like it
	hot, but has lots of mild dishes too-- or I would never
	eat there.  Many Chinese restaurants in the South Bay 
	are Hunan, or Mandarin, or Cantonese, whereas Jing Jing 
	is really a Szechuan restaurant, of the style beloved by 
	many expat East-Coast folks.   BTW, when they say "hot",
	they really mean HOT.

	[Review by Strata]

	Kabuki has apparently never been to Jing Jing.  Now I
	feel bad, since I won't be there to introduce folks to
	it!

Directions:

	Jing Jing is a half block or so north of University Avenue in
	Palo Alto on Emerson.  Pretend you were going to Mandarin
	Gourmet, but go on Emerson instead of Ramona.  :-)  

	From Berkeley/Oakland:
	Take 880 South to the Dumbarton Bridge.  Take the Dumbarton to
	101 Southbound.  The next exit is University Ave, which you
	take west into Downtown Palo Alto.  Turn right at Emerson, the 
	restaurant is on the right hand side about halfway down the 
	block.

	From the South Bay:
	Take 101 North to University Ave;  Take University Ave west
	to Emerson;  Turn right and park, the restaurant is on your
	right.
