Signature Dishes
Dongpo pork
The fat-to-lean balance is well judged and the soy aroma is rich without feeling greasy; textures range from melt-in-the-mouth to mushy skin and dry, tough lean meat.
Milkfish belly
Fresh and free of fishiness, with a touch of fatty aroma and a balanced flavor.
Garlic prawns
Fragrant and firm-textured, yet it may also turn out powdery.
Handmade tofu pudding
Handmade tofu pudding made in a traditional style, served as the final dessert.
Fish maw with watermelon rind
Like the seafood platter and oil chicken, it carries the depth of traditional Taiwanese cuisine.
