Signature Dishes

  • Meat-filled tangyuan

    The skin is soft and glutinous, with a savory, juicy meat filling, paired with a clear broth; best eaten hot, as the skin and filling may turn very soft when cooled, and four on their own may feel rich toward the end.

  • Signature dry noodles

    The noodles have a slightly firm bite and hold the sauce well; the sesame and minced-pork sauces are savory, with a generous portion and a moderate amount of sauce.

  • Braised pork rice

    The braised pork is tender, chewy, well-seasoned, and not greasy; the mushroom minced-pork rice underneath is leaner and drier, so the two balance each other, and white pepper adds aroma.

  • Pork cheek

    The meat is tender and well-seasoned; shredded ginger and sweet chili sauce add flavor.
