Signature Dishes

  • Duck hot pot

    The accompanying vegetables are the highlight; the cherry duck hot pot is simply delicious, letting the ingredients speak for themselves.

  • Fried spring roll

    Filled with shrimp paste, edamame, and cream cheese; the texture is not greasy, and it comes with a small dish of soy sauce for dipping.

  • Tamagoyaki

    The care put into the broth comes through, but overall it resembles creamed corn soup.

  • Sashimi

    The sashimi melts in the mouth, but the portion is on the small side.

  • Fried pork ribs

    The rib meat is melt-in-the-mouth, like the ribs in a home-style pork rib soup, and is bathed in a sweet sauce.
