Dishes
Nine-Turned IntestinesNine-turn intestine is a traditional famous dish, primarily made from pork intestines. After blanching and frying, it is stir-fried with various seasonings and then slowly stewed until fully flavored. The dish has a rich red color and a spiral shape, offering a layered texture.
Whole Stir-FryA stir-fry dish made with pork tenderloin, liver, and kidneys, sliced and quickly cooked with scallions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and cooking wine.
Squirrel FishSquirrel Fish is made primarily from mandarin fish, named for its bright red color and shape resembling a squirrel after cooking. The mandarin fish is deboned, scored with diagonal cuts, marinated, then deep-fried until golden and crispy. Finally, a rich sauce made by stir-frying tomato paste, sugar, and vinegar is poured over it, creating a vibrant color and a squirrel-like appearance.
Chilled Mixed Shellfish SaladWarm-marinated scallops with fresh sea scallops, blanched and mixed with cucumber and carrot, dressed with a seasoned sauce. No high-heat cooking preserves the tender texture.
温拌蜇头温拌蜇头是一道以海蜇头为主要食材的凉菜,将海蜇头清洗后焯水或用冷水浸泡去咸味,再加入黄瓜丝、香菜等辅料,调入酱油、醋、糖、蒜末、香油等调味料拌匀而成。
Stewed Sea Urchin Egg SoupStewed monkfish roe soup is made primarily with monkfish roe, combined with辅料 such as egg white, ham, and dried mushrooms. It is prepared through steps including blanching, simmering, and thickening with a starch slurry. The monkfish roe must be cleaned beforehand and then slowly stewed in a rich broth along with other ingredients. Finally, egg white is added to form delicate threads, resulting in a smooth and richly textured soup.
Sauced Fish SlicesStir-fried fish slices are made primarily with fish slices and seasoned with fermented rice wine brine and other condiments. After marinating, the fish slices are cooked with the brine and other seasonings, resulting in a tender texture and rich fermented aroma.
Braised Sea Cucumber with Green OnionScallion-braised sea cucumber is a dish primarily made with rehydrated sea cucumbers and scallions. The sea cucumbers must be soaked beforehand, then cooked together with sliced scallions in a pot, adding ingredients such as chicken stock, soy sauce, and cooking wine. It is slowly stewed over low heat so the sea cucumbers absorb the aroma of scallions and the broth. Finally, it is thickened with a slurry and reduced to a glossy finish.
Silver Thread RollsSilver thread rolls are made from flour, formed by rolling dough into thin sheets, folding, slicing into strands, and rolling up before steaming. They are long, soft, elastic, with distinct layers inside.
Crispy Fried ChickenFragrant crispy chicken is made with chicken as the main ingredient, marinated and then deep-fried until golden and crunchy. The chicken must first be marinated with seasonings to absorb flavor, then fried at high temperature until the skin becomes crispy while the meat remains tender and juicy.
