Signature Dishes
Dry Yi Mein
The thin noodles are springy and dry-textured, with a clear pork-lard aroma and minced-pork sauce; the texture can also be somewhat soft.
Hot-and-sour soup dumplings
Full of hot-and-sour and peppery flavor; both the soup and dumplings are spicy and sour. Larger appetites may not find one bowl filling.
Shantou fish ball soup
The fish balls are tender and springy; the broth is rich yet clean and not oily, with a seafood sweetness.
Wonton soup
Thin wonton skins with generous filling; the filling is fresh and not heavy, while the broth is clean with layered flavor.
Assorted braised items
The braised items vary in flavor: they can come across as straightforward and not too salty, but may also be on the salty side.
