Signature Dishes

  • Braised pork rice

    Black-gold braised pork rice has a sweet, savory sauce; the glossy meat melts in the mouth without feeling greasy, though some may find it salty and lacking aroma.

  • Lamb rib soup

    The lamb has a balanced lean-to-fat ratio and is tender and juicy, with chewable membrane; the broth is lightly herbal and bone-sweet, overall on the light side.

  • Sliced lamb soup

    The slices are generous and thick with chew; the broth is relatively light, though some may find it bland.

  • Blanched greens

    The cabbage is fresh, crisp, and refreshing, with a generous portion and noticeable garlic; it is comforting with braised pork rice.
