Signature Dishes
Soy Milk Tofu Pudding
The soy aroma is noticeable, with a dense, smooth texture that may also feel tender or very soft; unsweetened soy milk is available, and the traditional syrup is not overly sweet.
Tofu Pudding with Peanuts
The peanuts are cooked soft and creamy, almost melting in the mouth; with the tofu pudding, the sweetness is not too high.
Tofu Pudding with Taro and Taro Balls
The taro portion is generous, with a past serving recorded as three large pieces; it can have an osmanthus aroma and be well-seasoned without being undercooked, though it may also seem ordinary. The taro balls are large and bouncy, but the taro flavor varies in intensity.
Brown Sugar Shaved Ice
Choose four toppings; the osmanthus sweet-potato balls are softly chewy, the flower beans and peanuts are dense, while the fen guo is less chewy.
