Signature Dishes

  • Sesame tangyuan

    Pronounced sesame aroma and a smooth, springy glutinous-rice skin stand out; a jiuniang-sesame version is also offered.

  • Vegetable rice

    Vegetable and lard aromas come through, but the rice is somewhat moist and sticky rather than loose and separate.

  • Niangao

    The rice cake is soft-chewy and glutinous; the pairing of preserved mustard greens and shredded pork is aromatic.

  • Huzhou zongzi

    The glutinous rice is soft, springy, and substantial in texture, with a generous filling; it represents the restaurant's old Jiangzhe flavors.
