Signature Dishes

  • Egg-topped pickled-melon meat soup

    The broth is refreshing with a pickled-melon flavor and the red meat has a real-meat texture; the soft-cooked egg is a feature, but there has been an instance of undercooked whites.

  • Braised pork rice

    The texture is sticky, with pork-skin collagen and a lard aroma; it can also come with little sauce, dryness, or overly soft rice. It may taste plain on its own and pairs better with a soft-cooked egg.

  • Red-meat thick soup

    Built around red meat and bamboo shoots, with plenty of meat and a meaty texture; generally tasty, though a burnt flavor was recorded on one day.

  • Red-meat curry rice

    A Taiwanese-style curry with pronounced thickening; the flavor may seem ordinary, while an old-fashioned taste also appears. The proportions of rice, meat, and curry soup have differed in recorded servings.
