Anhui Glutinous Rice CakeAnhui zibá is made primarily from glutinous rice, soaked, steamed, then mashed into a团 and cut into small pieces.

Reviews
- sapphire_buckwheatGot the stinky mandarin fish and honestly wasn't sure what to expect at first — that fermented smell kinda threw me off. But wow, the outside was super crispy and the fish inside was so tender and flavorful, honestly it was way better than I thought it would be. Like really really good with rice, definitely a "I'll be thinking about this later" kind of dish. The sauce was rich and had this funky fermented aroma that grew on me the more I ate it, kinda addicting actually. The whole place has this Huizhou vibe going on with wooden decor and plants everywhere, felt super cozy and chill. Staff was really attentive too — they actually walked us through the dish when we ordered and even helped remove the fish bones for us, which was such a nice touch. Also tried the hairy tofu and the ham and bamboo shoot soup, both solid picks. Everything tasted really authentic and comforting, perfect for catching up with friends. Would definitely come back.
