Signature Dishes
Fried Chicken Leg
The skin is crisp, with a thin, crackly coating and a toasted aroma; the meat separates easily from the bone, and the sweet-and-sour sauce makes it more appetizing. It can be salty and slightly oily, the texture may be somewhat dry, and it may also have a gamey chicken flavor in isolated cases.
Fried Pork Chop
The meat is substantial, with a fragrant, crisp coating and a black-pepper aroma, served with sweet-and-sour sauce; it can also have a somewhat soft, oily texture.
Pork Chop with Pickled Mustard Greens Noodles
The soup, noodles, and pork chop are served separately; the broth is light and not very oily, while the noodles are on the soft side; the pork chop is a large, tender piece but can be somewhat soft and oily.
Fried Tofu
Crisp on the outside and tender inside; the flavor may be mild or require a condiment for dipping.
