Yes. Szechuan province is in western China. Not just spicy, but hot! And delicious. Much more zing than Cantonese dishes.

Hunan and Szechuan dishes are supposed to be the spiciest of Chinese food regions. However, in most American take out places, it's more sweet than spicy unless you tell them to make it hot.

Some dishes are. If you order from Chinese restaurant from the US, most likely it's not genuine cooking and you can specify how spicy you want.

Usually not, unless you ask for extra spicy.

This is an indigenous plant whose peppercorns produce a fragrant, numbing, almost citrusy spice.

No. Depends on the chef and individual taste.
