Signature Dishes
Oyster Vermicelli
White vermicelli comes with small Kinmen oysters, pig blood, and pork intestines in the same bowl; the broth is light and not starch-thickened. The vermicelli is somewhat Q and smooth, though the overall flavor may taste light.
Fried Fish Strips
The fish strips have a fresh, sweet flavor; compared with the light vermicelli, their overall flavor stands out more.
Braised Pork Skin
The pork skin is braised until flavorful, with a melt-in-the-mouth texture; it can also be paired with vermicelli and fried items as a meal.
White Rice
A common pairing is white rice topped with vermicelli or a little braising sauce; the rice is somewhat dry and loose, with distinct grains, so those who prefer sticky, springy rice may not be used to it.
