Signature Dishes
Sesame Flatbread with Youtiao and Egg
The flatbread is crisp outside, chewy, and fragrant; the youtiao ranges from dry and non-greasy to somewhat soft.
Batter-Based Egg Pancake
The batter-based egg pancake has a fragrant, non-greasy wrapper, a tender texture, and enough flavor to eat on its own.
Pork-Filled Pancake
The wrapper is thin, with a meaty or juicy filling, and can be crisp outside; individual instances may have a plastic-like taste or a firm wrapper, so the texture varies.
Black Pepper and Scallion Pancake
Filled with pork, scallions, and black pepper; the lean meat is firm, the aroma is rich, and the crust is similar to a mooncake crust.
Soy Milk
Unsweetened soy milk has a rich bean aroma; half-sweet has a just-right sweetness, and hot soy milk pairs well with the flatbread.
