Signature Dishes
Angelica Pork Trotter
The trotter skin is pleasantly chewy, and the meat is tender with no gaminess; the broth is light and gently sweet. Taste the broth plain first, then dip the trotter in chili soy sauce for extra savory flavor.
Leg-Meat Vermicelli
The leg meat makes up roughly two-thirds, with some skin and a tender texture; the angelica broth is not strong. Vermicelli can be added, and chili soy sauce adds flavor.
Braised Pork Rice
The fatty pork is soft and rich, and the sauce ranges from savory-sweet to mild; it can also feel oily or merely average, so it works better as a side to the trotters.
Oden
The broth ranges from lightly sweet to strongly herbal, with fresh ingredients; your preference depends on how much herbal aroma you enjoy.
