Dishes
Pork BellyPork belly is a cut of meat from the pig's abdomen, characterized by alternating layers of fat and lean meat, which gives it the name 'five-layered' or 'five-striped'. Common cooking methods include braising, stir-frying, or stewing. During cooking, the fat melts, resulting in tender meat with an aromatic flavor.
Hulunbuir Lamb SkewersHulunbuir lamb skewers are made from high-quality lamb sourced from the Hulunbuir grasslands, cut into uniform pieces and threaded onto bamboo skewers. After marinating in a specially prepared seasoning, they are slowly grilled over charcoal until golden and slightly charred. The meat is tender, juicy, and filled with rich aroma.
Grilled CornGrilled corn is a simple and delicious snack, with fresh corn as the main ingredient. The method involves slow-roasting the corn over charcoal until the kernels turn golden and slightly charred. A thin layer of cooking oil can be brushed on during the process to enhance texture and flavor.
Grilled OystersGrilled oysters is a seafood dish with oysters as the main ingredient. To prepare, clean the oysters thoroughly and place them on a grill, then roast over moderate heat. As the temperature rises, the oysters naturally open up, revealing tender and juicy meat. Enjoying them with a specially prepared sauce enhances the rich and varied flavor.
Grilled EggplantGrilled eggplant is a dish that uses eggplant as its main ingredient. During preparation, the eggplant is typically cut into appropriate sizes, marinated, and then placed on a grill to be roasted over charcoal or in an oven. It is cooked until the skin is slightly charred and the inside is soft and tender, then served with a specially prepared seasoning for a unique flavor.
Roasted SauerkrautStewed sauerkraut is a dish primarily made with sauerkraut. The sauerkraut, after being pickled, develops a unique flavor. To prepare it, lay the sauerkraut on a baking tray, add appropriate seasonings, and bake in an oven until the surface turns slightly crispy. The result is a fragrant, crunchy texture with a more intense sauerkraut flavor.
Dumpling SoupGedou soup is a home-style soup dish, primarily made with flour, vegetables, and water or broth. By mixing flour and water into small granules, then boiling them together with vegetables, and finally adding seasonings, the dish is complete.
Indulgent Ice CreamA creamy frozen dessert made with milk, cream, and fruit, perfect for satisfying sweet cravings.
ToastBread slices are a flat food made primarily from flour, fermented and baked. During preparation, various nuts and dried fruits can be added to enhance texture and nutrition. The outer crust is golden and crispy, while the inside is soft and porous—ideal for eating alone or as a base for sandwiches and other dishes.
Fish tofuFish tofu is made primarily from fresh, tender fish meat and soft tofu, finely mixed and then steamed or boiled to achieve a delicate, white, and smooth texture.
Reviews
- verdant_geraniumThis place is honestly pretty fun. The whole grill-it-yourself thing makes the meal feel really interactive, so it's perfect if you're coming with friends who like to get hands-on with their food. The Hulunbuir lamb skewers, the grilled corn kernels (sweet, btw), and the little bread slices are a super photogenic combo and taste amazing too. Fair warning though — it gets pretty packed on weekend evenings, so I'd say go early or pick an off-peak time to skip the wait. And the little extras they give you, like the Hulunbuir grass and the mini ice cream, were such a cute surprise! Overall great value, but if you're just looking to fill up quick, a regular bbq spot might be more straightforward. Totally recommend it if you wanna actually enjoy the grilling experience and care about fresh ingredients. Oh and seriously, order extra lamb skewers and the pickled cabbage — with a cold draft beer, it's unreal.
