Signature Dishes
Duck rice
Braised pork sauce and duck oil make the rice fragrant and savory; the duck can be tender and not dry, though the rice can be wet and the duck can be dry.
Assorted offal soup
Loaded with varied offal and a rich duck-scented broth; the duck intestine is crisp, and the soup carries ginger aroma.
Duck blood rice cake
Springy and tender, with more flavor when dipped in the house soy paste; the portion is also large.
Sliced duck
Thick, tender duck with natural sweetness, good with ginger shreds or the house sauce; the slices may contain many bones, so the texture may not suit everyone.
