Signature Dishes

  • Wood-fired bucket chicken

    The pre-ordered bucket chicken is tender; the skin is roasted dark and glossy, and the meat is still juicy.

  • Traditional chopped-chili sea bass

    The fish is tender and delicate; the chopped chili is spicy and appetizing, with a savory, layered flavor.

  • Lao Pi Nen Rou

    Tender in texture, it is one of the tasty stir-fry dishes alongside scallion beef.

  • Jinsha squid

    Crispy and not greasy.

  • Water spinach with bamboo shoots

    Slightly sour, with a pleasant texture.
