Sua Superette
Your Local Sichuan Market + Kitchenette
Address: 144 North Larchmont Boulevard, Los Angeles 90004

Just opened in November 2023, SUA (耍) is a grab-and-go food store at the Larchmont Mercantile.
Sichuan cuisine is one of the eight major cuisines of China. It is named after the Szechuan region in the southwest of the country. The area’s dishes are known for freshness, fragrance, and above all, spiciness. 🌶 Kung Pao chicken is the most famous Sichuan dish that’s a classic.
The location of the SiChuan Kitchenette is where Absolute Tickets used to be. That particular section of the block has been totally renovated and is now part of the Larchmont Mercantile building complex.
A superette is an alternative name for a compact supermarket or “mini-mart” in the same vein that a kitchenette is a small kitchen!
But what does the word Suá mean? Well, the Chinese ideograph represents a woman wearing a beard as a disguise. How cool is that? It means to be playful or have fun in the Sichuanese dialect. While a Beijing Mandarin speaker says 玩儿, someone from Sichuan may say 耍.
