Signature Dishes

  • Shang Hao Chicken Rice

    The chicken is tender, with chicken fat and soy sauce bringing a sweet-salty aroma; the rice may be distinct and separate or somewhat soft, while a soft-cooked egg adds another layer.

  • Chicken Rice with Egg

    Small chicken pieces with a soft-cooked egg, distinct rice, and a savory-salty sauce with scallion oil; the bowl is not very large.

  • Soft-Cooked Fried Egg

    Crisp-fried outside, with a rich yolk and runny center; mixing it into the rice and sauce adds another layer, and the doneness can be requested soft-cooked or fully cooked.

  • Garlic-Dressed Cucumber

    Blanched first and dressed with minced garlic and soy sauce, it stays crisp and is served slightly warm; it may also taste light or not fully seasoned.

  • Milkfish Fish Ball Soup

    The broth is fresh and sweet, and the fish balls are somewhat springy; the fish balls may also seem ordinary.
