Signature Dishes
Braised items
The herbal seasoning is fragrant rather than salty; different ingredients keep the crunch or chew they should have, and the meats are tender.
Rice-blood cake (米血)
Pre-braised and well-seasoned, with distinct rice-grain texture and rice aroma; soft yet springy, and a possible must-order.
Mama's handmade taro cake
A shiitake-and-taro cake with chewy mushrooms; a good first pick for taro lovers.
House chili sauce
Pronounced peppercorn aroma, numbing but not too hot; it can be added to the braised items and is also sold by the jar.
At a Glance

- Priced like typical braised food
- Peak hours
- Business is good; going at opening usually means less waiting.
- Reservation
- A rainy-day visit at 19:30 was still busy; takeaway was once advised to call ahead to reserve.
