Dishes
Pork Tetra掌中宝 is a refined Chinese dish primarily made from chicken cartilage. During preparation, the chicken cartilage is marinated to absorb flavor, then quickly stir-fried at high heat to achieve a crispy exterior and tender interior, resulting in a rich and layered texture.
Grilled Pork BellyGrilled pork belly is a dish primarily made with pork belly. To prepare it, the pork belly is sliced, marinated, and then grilled on a rack over moderate heat. It's ready when both sides are golden brown and the edges slightly curl, resulting in tender and juicy meat that can be enjoyed with simple seasonings.
烤鸭舌烤鸭舌是一道以鸭舌为主要食材的菜肴,经过清洗处理后,用调味料腌制,再放入烤箱或炭火上烤制而成。鸭舌质地细腻,口感鲜嫩,通常搭配酱料食用。
Beef SkewersBeef skewers are made by cutting selected beef into chunks and threading them onto bamboo skewers. After marinating, they are slowly grilled over charcoal until the outside is charred and the inside remains tender and juicy. The meat is delicious on its own but even better when paired with a special sauce.
CornCorn is a common ingredient that can be cooked in various ways, such as boiling, grilling, or stir-frying. When boiled, keeping the husks intact imparts a subtle fragrance to the corn. Grilled corn develops a slightly charred surface, offering a unique smoky flavor. Stir-fried corn is often paired with pine nuts and carrots, creating a colorful dish with rich textures and flavors.
Lamb SkewersLamb skewers are made by cutting fresh, tender lamb into chunks, threading them onto bamboo or metal skewers, and marinating before grilling directly over charcoal. During grilling, the lamb's fat drips onto the fire, creating smoke that熏 (smokes) the meat, resulting in a crispy exterior and tender interior with rich aroma.

Preparation methods include stir-frying, braising in brown sauce, frying, steaming, or stewing, often combined with seasonings such as garlic, ginger, and green onions.
