Signature Dishes
Smoked Goose
A light smoky aroma with a fuller flavor; the meat can be tender and juicy, but the smoked leg may be less tender than expected. Ginger, Thai basil, and dipping sauce add flavor.
Saltwater Goose
Fresh, sweet, and juicy, with the goose's natural sweetness coming through; distinct from the smoked style.
Goose Intestine Soup
The intestines are cleanly prepared and crisp-tender. The broth can taste fresh and smooth, but the rice wine may mask some of its freshness; noodle and soup dishes can be refilled.
Sticky Rice Sausage
Contains peanuts and has a light sweetness, and it is quite filling; the rice sausage also has a nostalgic, traditional flavor.
Rice Noodle Soup
The rice noodle soup has a flavorful broth.
