Dishes
Peking DuckPeking duck is a traditional Beijing dish made from fatty and tender Peking ducks, using unique roasting techniques to achieve crispy, golden skin and tender meat. No seasonings are added during the roasting process, preserving its original flavor.
Fried Chicken ThighFried chicken thighs are a dish made primarily from chicken thighs, marinated and then deep-fried until golden and crispy. The chicken thighs are first seasoned with spices to absorb flavor, then coated or dipped in batter, breadcrumbs, or similar coatings before being fried in hot oil until the exterior is crunchy and the meat inside remains tender and juicy.
Roast Duck DiceRoast duck diced and served with scallions, cucumber, and hoisin sauce for wrapping in pancakes.
Peking Duck Dipping SauceThe duck sauce is mainly made from sweet bean sauce, garlic paste, green onions and a little sugar. Mix the sweet bean sauce with mashed garlic and chopped green onions to make it ready to use. This sauce enhances the flavor when served with roast duck.
Lotus Leaf PancakeLotus leaf buns are a traditional snack made primarily from flour, named for their shape resembling lotus leaves. To prepare them, the dough is rolled into thin sheets, brushed with oil, and sprinkled with scallions, salt, and other seasonings. The dough is then folded into a lotus leaf shape and pan-fried until both sides turn golden brown.
Green Onion StripsScallion strips are a simple and refreshing side dish, primarily made from fresh scallions. The preparation involves washing the scallions and slicing them into thin, long strands, typically served alongside main dishes to enhance flavor.
