Dishes

Wide Rice NoodlesWide rice noodles, a broad ribbon-shaped vermicelli made from sweet potato starch. Typically, the wide rice noodles are soaked in warm water to soften them before being stir-fried or added to soups with meats and vegetables. They have a smooth, tender texture that absorbs broth well, enhancing the overall flavor.
Crispy Pork StripsSucculent pork slices, made from fatty pork belly, are marinated and then deep-fried until golden and crispy. To prepare, the pork belly is sliced thinly, seasoned with salt, cooking wine, and five-spice powder, then fried in hot oil until perfectly crisp.
Bubble TofuBubble Tofu is a dish made primarily from fried tofu cubes that puff up when deep-fried, then stir-fried with green and red peppers and seasoned to perfection.
Air-Freighted Crispy TripeAir-freighted crispy beef tripe is a dish primarily made with fresh beef tripe. It uses high-quality tripe that has been quickly frozen and transported, then soaked in clean water before being sliced. The slices are briefly blanched in boiling water until they curl and change color, preserving their crisp texture. It is typically mixed with garlic slices, cilantro, chili oil, and other seasonings, or served as a hot pot ingredient.
Lamb SlicesLamb slices are made from selected lamb, sliced thinly and rolled into rolls. Typically served with hot pot cooking, the meat is tender and flavorful, making it an essential choice for hot pot meals.
