Signature Dishes
Dry Noodles
The fine noodles are springy; season with lard, vinegar, soy sauce and chili oil, and add chili flakes if desired. The noodle aroma is rustic and may taste mild.
Zha Jiang Mian
The flavor is refined and the noodles are well cooked; mixed with a soft-boiled egg and chili oil, it becomes more fragrant.
Gan Si (Shredded Tofu)
Gan si is cut like shredded lanhua gan rather than regular dried tofu; it soaks up sauce when mixed into noodles and is more fragrant with vinegar and chili-oil bits.
Wonton Egg Soup
The egg pouch in the wonton soup is soft-cooked; the soup is simple, while the wonton wrappers are thick and the meat filling is relatively sparse.
