Signature Dishes
Bamboo Shoot Porridge
The rice grains retain their texture; meat broth with bamboo shoots and shiitake is sweet and clean rather than oily, though it may taste light and the porridge may be thin.
Signature Fried Pork Ribs
Thick-cut ribs are coated with a thin batter and fried crisp; the meat is tender and juicy rather than dry, with a light pepper-and-pork aroma.
Chicken and Braised-Pork Rice
Braised pork with shredded chicken; well-seasoned without being too heavy, and smoother with a soft-boiled egg mixed through the rice.
Chicken Roll
Sweet garlic sauce and a well-seasoned marinade give it an overall sweet profile.
Milk Tea
A traditional, rich creamer-style milk tea that is chilled and smooth, with a noticeable tea flavor.
