Signature Dishes
Fried Pork
The crust is golden and crisp, with well-marinated meat that has a rich, fatty aroma and a springy bite; the seasoning is on the strong side, so try it plain first, then with garlic soy sauce.
Fenqian (粉沯)
Soft and springy with a slight jelly-like texture; smooth when hot and springy when cold, with plenty of lean-meat pieces. This soft texture may not suit everyone.
