Signature Dishes

  • Braised Pork Rice

    The fatty meat is not greasy, and the skin can be soft and well-braised; the lean meat may be dry, and the braising aroma is sometimes faint.

  • Braised Minced Pork Rice

    The large pieces of fatty meat are not greasy; the flavor can be savory yet may also seem light, and those accustomed to northern Taiwanese flavors can adjust it with white pepper.

  • Tofu Skin Soup

    A relatively uncommon option in northern Taiwan; one past tasting found it quite good.

  • Stir-Fried Noodles

    The flavor is decent and it suits takeout better; it has at times been lukewarm.

  • Braised Pork Skin

    Well-braised and cleanly prepared.
