Dishes
Napa cabbageNapa cabbage is a common vegetable widely loved for its tender texture and nutritional value. When preparing it, the cabbage is usually washed and cut into segments, and can be stir-fried, simmered, or made into soups. Seasonings can be added according to taste during cooking.
TripeTripe, primarily made from the rumen of cattle, is finely processed to achieve a tender texture. It is typically sliced and served with spicy hot pot or cold dressing, offering a crisp and refreshing taste—making it a popular choice in hot pot dishes.
Hot Lamb SoupHot lamb is a dish primarily made with fresh lamb meat, typically using lamb leg or lamb belly. The meat is cut into pieces, blanched in water to remove blood foam, then stewed with ingredients such as ginger slices and scallions to ensure the lamb is thoroughly cooked while remaining tender. A small amount of cooking wine can be added during cooking to remove fishy odor, and finally garnished with chopped scallions or cilantro.
Beef SkewersBeef skewers are made by cutting selected beef into chunks and threading them onto bamboo skewers. After marinating, they are slowly grilled over charcoal until the outside is charred and the inside remains tender and juicy. The meat is delicious on its own but even better when paired with a special sauce.
Special Lamb SkewersSpecial lamb skewers are made primarily from fresh lamb, cut into uniform small pieces and threaded onto bamboo skewers. After marinating with spices such as cumin, chili powder, salt, and onion, the meat becomes flavorful. During grilling, proper heat control ensures the lamb is crispy on the outside and tender inside, with a rich aroma.
Mutton DumplingsMutton dumplings are made primarily from fresh mutton and flour, crafted through steps including chopping the filling, kneading the dough, rolling out the wrappers, wrapping the dumplings, and boiling them.
Mutton Bone Hot Pot BaseA rich broth made by simmering mutton bones for hours, ideal for hot pot meals with vegetables and tofu.
Beef RollBeef roll is a dish made primarily from thinly sliced fatty beef. During preparation, the beef slices are rolled into cylindrical shapes and typically cooked together with vegetables or noodles. The cooking methods vary—such as boiling, steaming, grilling, or stir-frying—which results in different textures and flavors.
