Signature Dishes

  • Milkfish Belly Congee

    The belly is thick and tender, with sweet broth and rice that becomes soft with a slight chew after absorbing it; small bones remain, and the congee has at times been lukewarm.

  • Signature Savory Congee

    This is cooked congee rather than rice soup, and it can be paired with youtiao and pepper; the congee is light, though the portion may be small.

  • Fish Head Soup

    Three fish heads and tail sections nearly fill the bowl; they are blanched in clear broth for a distinct fish flavor, but the many bone crevices require slow picking.

  • Milkfish Sausage

    The texture is distinctive and clearly different from pork sausage; its aroma may sometimes be subtle.

  • Fish Skin Soup

    The fish skin is fresh, and the broth is seasoned with fried shallots and stock; it may not be served hot enough.
