Signature Dishes
Chicken roll
Wrapped in bean curd skin with lean meat and onion, it is generously filled. The skin can be crisp, fragrant, and juicy, but it can also be soft; the lean meat may be dry and difficult to chew, and the texture may differ considerably after cooling.
Fried tofu
Crisp outside and tender inside; one of the shop's fried items.
Spanish mackerel thick soup
The soup is mildly sweet and viscous, with a bonito flavor; there are plenty of fish pieces, which can be crisp, fragrant, and tender, though the soup itself may seem ordinary.
Fried tempura
When freshly fried, it is hot with a crisp exterior and soft interior; it may also have a somewhat soft, crisp texture.
Three-layer braised pork
The lean-to-fat balance is even; the exterior can be crisp and the inside tender rather than tough or dry. If it is not hot enough, the exterior may not be crisp enough, and the overall flavor may seem ordinary.
