Dishes
Five-Spice BeefFive-spice beef is a dish made by stewing beef with five spices: star anise, cinnamon, Sichuan pepper, cloves, and fennel. Beef is cut into pieces, blanched to remove odor, then slowly cooked with spices and seasonings until tender and flavorful.
Spring RollsSpring rolls are a traditional snack made by wrapping a thin dough wrapper around various fillings such as vegetables and meat, then rolling them into a cylindrical shape and deep-frying until golden and crispy. Common fillings include bean sprouts, carrots, cucumbers, and pork, offering a rich and satisfying texture.
Authentic Stream FishFresh fish from mountain streams, gently stewed with ginger and garlic to preserve its tender texture and natural flavor.
River ShrimpFresh river shrimp are cleaned and boiled or fried in water to retain their natural flavor, or stir-fried with scallions, ginger, and garlic for a tender, chewy texture.
Poached ChickenWhite-cut chicken is a traditional dish made primarily from young chicken. It is boiled without any seasonings, preserving the natural flavor of the meat. It is served with a specially prepared sauce to enhance its original taste.
