Signature Dishes

  • Scallop Dumplings

    The green wrappers contain algae; each dumpling has a small scallop with a seafood savor. The scallop aroma stands out, but the pieces are small and may taste slightly salty.

  • Signature Dumplings

    The leek-and-cabbage filling starts with scallion aroma, followed by cabbage sweetness; the wrappers are springy, but eating many may feel greasy.

  • Chive Dumplings

    Fragrant chives have a crisp bite with sweet pork; the wrappers are springy and not overly oily, and can sometimes be more appealing than the signature version.

  • Hot-and-Sour Soup

    The acidity can be mild or pronounced; toppings may feel plentiful or sparse, and the broth may be thick. If you are sensitive to sour flavors, take note.

  • Grass Jelly Honey Drink

    Chilled and silky, with sweetness around half-sweet tea and not overly sugary; refreshing in summer.
