Signature Dishes
Changhua rouyuan
The skin can be soft or springy; the filling is mainly lean pork and bamboo shoots, while the sauce is garlicky and may taste salty or sweet.
Fish-ball soup
The broth is smooth, and the fish balls have a distinctive added texture; the fish-ball texture may not suit every palate, and the soup may sell out after an evening queue.
Pork-meatball soup
Pepper-forward and salty, with a bold flavor.
