Signature Dishes

  • Tomato and Egg Stir-Fry

    Slightly sweet, with little tomato but a distinct tomato flavor; the eggs are soft, with a smooth starch-thickened sauce.

  • Spicy Diced Chicken

    Fragrant and spicy, with variation in saltiness.

  • Kung Pao Century Egg

    The century egg is fried first, giving the surface a light fried texture; the sauce is fragrant and spicy, with a relatively high heat level.

  • Salted Egg Oyster Mushrooms

    A particularly clear recommendation to consider when adding a small dish.

  • Amaranth

    Anchovies add saltiness while the greens retain a delicate texture and a slight bitterness.
