At a Glance
Signature Dishes
Fuzhou noodles
The noodles are springy and absorb scallion oil and meat sauce; mixed with greens, they are aromatic, but overcooking makes them lose their springiness.
Braised side dishes
White-braised and dressed with sesame oil and scallions, tofu and tofu skin are finely cut, with a light, easy-to-eat flavor; pork skin may be firm, and you can ask the shop to soften it by blanching.
Yangchun noodles
The house-made meat sauce is fragrant; the dry version may be oily, while greens and scallion oil lift the flavor of the soup version.
Water spinach
Tossed with house-made meat sauce, it has thicker stems and a crisp bite, with an overall non-greasy finish.
