Signature Dishes
Cabbage and shrimp steamed dumplings
The shrimp and filling are in roughly equal portions; they can be seasoned enough to eat without sauce, but may also be dry, with less sweetness or a less noticeable shrimp flavor.
Xiaolong tangbao
The soup and meat filling vary: at times the soup is fresh, sweet, and bursts out, with a firm filling; at other times the skin may be thick and the soup scant.
Gua bao
Staff usually ask whether you want fatty or lean pork, so you can choose to taste; it is an option besides steamed dumplings with an overall good flavor.
Sishen soup
It uses pork intestine instead of pork stomach, and the intestine is braised until tender; the soup can be rich and warming, but may also feel as if it is missing a flavor.
Iced soy milk
The sweetness is just right and the soy aroma is rich, with a handmade, straightforward taste.
