Signature Dishes

  • Winter-Vegetable Duck Glass Noodles

    The winter-vegetable broth is savory and dark, with a pronounced aroma that does not overpower; it can also be lightly sweet and smooth rather than overly salty, while the duck meat may sometimes have a fibrous texture.

  • Duck Rice

    The duck is tender; with pickled cucumber and green chili, it has a sweet-and-sour, mildly spicy flavor; the rice is somewhat moist and soft, and the white-rice portion can also be small.

  • Plain Duck Meat

    The meat is tender and juicy, seasoned just right without being overly salty; the sliced serving has almost no bones, and the small portion has at times been larger on the plate than expected.

  • Mixed Soup

    The mixed soup contains gizzard, heart, and liver; the gizzard stands out.

  • Blanched A-choy

    The A-choy is fresh and not noticeably bitter; there is also a duck-fat version of the A-choy.
