Dishes
Baby bok choyBaby bok choy is a small type of Chinese cabbage with a fresh and tender texture. Common cooking methods include stir-frying, garlic stir-fry, or simmering in clear soup. To prepare, first wash the baby bok choy thoroughly, then add appropriate seasonings and ingredients according to your chosen method, and stir-fry until soft or simmer until flavorful.
Pork Tetra掌中宝 is a refined Chinese dish primarily made from chicken cartilage. During preparation, the chicken cartilage is marinated to absorb flavor, then quickly stir-fried at high heat to achieve a crispy exterior and tender interior, resulting in a rich and layered texture.
BeefBeef dishes are primarily made with high-quality beef and prepared using cooking methods such as stewing, boiling, and stir-frying. During the cooking process, seasonings like scallions, ginger, garlic, chili peppers, and Sichuan peppercorns can be added according to taste, allowing the beef to fully absorb the aromas of the seasonings for a tender and juicy texture.
CornCorn is a common ingredient that can be cooked in various ways, such as boiling, grilling, or stir-frying. When boiled, keeping the husks intact imparts a subtle fragrance to the corn.

Lamb SkewersLamb skewers are made by cutting fresh, tender lamb into chunks, threading them onto bamboo or metal skewers, and marinating before grilling directly over charcoal. During grilling, the lamb's fat drips onto the fire, creating smoke that熏 (smokes) the meat, resulting in a crispy exterior and tender interior with rich aroma.

Reviews
- picky_mothThe food: honestly haven't tried any of the stir-fry dishes here yet, but the barbecue is really solid. You can tell the beef and lamb are pretty fresh, and the flavor's just right, not too heavy. And the grilled corn on the veggie side is honestly amazing, super unique the way they do the whole ear on the grill! The vibe: place is kinda small and seating is pretty tight, and if I'm being honest the cleanliness could use a little work. Service: can't say enough good things about the staff, super warm and welcoming.
