Signature Dishes
Watermelon-Rind Grouper Soup
A small serving has about three pieces of fish; the fish is fresh and springy, the watermelon rind is moderately tart, and the soup has no fishy notes.
Braised-Pork Rice
The pork melts in the mouth, with a savory, full flavor that is not cloying or overly salty.
Longdan Grouper Fish Slices
The fish pieces are large and springy rather than tender; the accompanying broth is good.
Braised Tofu
The tofu is thoroughly braised, tastes good, and goes well with rice.
