Signature Dishes

  • Peppery Fish Skin

    Mildly spicy with a peppery aroma; the fish skin is springy and sweet, paired with chopped peppers and tofu for a rice-friendly flavor.

  • Pan-Seared Fish Fillet

    Aromatic with substantial texture; the pan-seared version is worth considering first.

  • Pan-Seared Premium Fish Belly

    The fish skin is crisp and the fish oil rich and tender, with a fresh sweetness and no muddy taste; it can also be thin and salty, with the skin and flesh separating.

  • Three-Cup Milkfish Sausage

    Distinctive in texture, reminiscent of pan-fried pork kidney; an inventive, highly distinctive flavor, not a conventional sausage profile.

  • Brown Sugar Fen Guo Shaved Ice

    The fen guo is springy; the brown sugar aroma is rich without being cloyingly sweet. The ice is fine, with grass jelly, and the serving is generous.
