The angelica pork trotter soup is light and gently sweet rather than intense; the trotters are tender and free of gaminess, while braised pork rice and oden work well as accompaniments.

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.
