Signature Dishes
Thick rice-noodle soup
Thick rice noodles are available; the texture is soft, springy, and smooth without turning mushy, while the broth is aromatized with fried shallots, celery, and white pepper.
Yangchun noodles
The thin white noodles are chewy and fragrant, with a light, balanced broth; seasoning may run salty, and the noodles may be slightly soft.
Hei-bai-qie
The pork offal is carefully cleaned and the crispy tube is savory; garlic oil paste and house-made chili add flavor.
Oil tofu
It is soft, tender, and delicate with no oily odor; a little oil paste is enough to add flavor, and it also has a springy, juicy bite.
Dry mi tai mu
The texture ranges from soft and glutinous to slightly soft; the seasoning may be salty, heavy, or oily, and vinegar and chili can brighten it.
