Signature Dishes
Cao zai guo
The cake skin is thick, soft, and chewy with a light mugwort aroma; the red bean filling is not overly sweet, while the preserved-radish-and-pork filling is savory and flavorful.
Radish-shred vegetable bun
The skin is soft and chewy with a generous filling; the radish tastes lightly sweet and its natural flavor stands out. It may also become moist and soft when the filling releases water, and perceptions of saltiness vary.
Suan cai vegetable bun
The suan cai is soft and lightly seasoned, without sweet, sour, or spicy notes; the filling can also be generous.
Taro cake
The ingredients are substantial; the seasoning may be light, with a “WOW” surprise on one occasion.
