Dishes
Potato CubesPotato cubes are a dish primarily made with potatoes. After cutting the potatoes into cube-shaped pieces, they are processed by frying or boiling, then seasoned and cooked with various spices. Common preparation methods include stir-frying, stewing, or steaming, often enhanced with辅料 such as green onions, ginger, and garlic to improve flavor.
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.
Dried Green BeansDry beans are made by sun-drying fresh beans until they lose moisture, resulting in a deep green or yellow-brown color. Before cooking, they must be soaked in water to restore their softness. They are commonly stewed with meat, absorbing the meat juices to become flavorful, and can also be stir-fried or used in soups.
Signature Drinking SnackSignature appetizers usually include braised or marinated poultry, meat, or soy products like braised beef, peanuts, chicken feet, and dried tofu, cooked with scallions, ginger, garlic, and spices for rich flavors perfect with alcohol.
Sauces Beef BallsSauces牛丸 (Sauces Beef Balls) are made primarily from beef, mixed with a secret blend of seasonings, then minced into a meat paste and shaped into balls. The unique feature is that the balls contain a savory broth inside; during cooking, the high temperature melts the inner broth, causing it to flow out when bitten, delivering a delicious flavor.
Beef Tripe Hot PotBeef tripe hot pot is a dish featuring beef tripe as the main ingredient. After cleaning and preparation, the tripe is sliced thinly or into strips and quickly blanched in boiling water until cooked. It can be enjoyed with dipping sauces such as garlic paste, cilantro, and chili oil.

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. Grilled corn develops a slightly charred surface, offering a unique smoky flavor. Stir-fried corn is often paired with pine nuts and carrots, creating a colorful dish with rich textures and flavors.
White RadishThis dish features radish as the main ingredient, prepared using simple cooking techniques such as stewing or stir-frying to preserve its natural flavor. The crisp texture and subtle sweetness of the radish are perfectly maintained, making it a healthy and beloved home-style meal.
Old TofuOld tofu is a traditional dish primarily made from tofu, which becomes soft and tender after stewing, fully absorbing the broth. It is typically prepared with meat or vegetables to enhance texture and nutrition, then reduced to concentrate the flavors.
