Signature Dishes

  • Clam chicken soup

    The broth is rich and the chicken is stewed until it nearly falls off the bone; there are about 3–4 clams and one wing or wing portion. The soup portion is small, with a salty-savory clam flavor.

  • Half-tendon, half-beef noodles

    The tendon is silky and distinctly gelatinous; the red-braised broth may be sweet or slightly sour, and the broth, meat, and noodles may taste separate.

  • Signature spicy dry noodles

    Thin noodles are tossed with spicy sauce and topped with braised pork; the noodles are springy. The heat is noticeable and builds as you eat, so those who do not handle spice well should consider that first.

  • Braised side dishes

    The braised platter is distinctive and full-flavored; the braised large intestine is cleanly prepared but oily.

  • Huagan with beef broth

    Huagan soaks up the beef broth, making it juicy with moderate saltiness; it can be paired with the spicy beef oil.
