Dishes
Small腰Xiao Yao is made primarily from fresh pig kidneys, which are carefully processed and marinated before being grilled. The pig kidneys are cut into bite-sized pieces and seasoned with a special blend of spices, resulting in a golden and appetizing appearance.
EdamameEdamame is a common legume vegetable, appearing in bright green color with tender green beans inside the pods. It is typically boiled and seasoned for eating, or stir-fried or stewed with other ingredients. The texture is fresh and嫩, and it is rich in nutrition.
Stir-fried ClamsStir-fried clams is a dish primarily made with fresh clams. To prepare it, clean the clams thoroughly, then stir-fry them with适量 of minced garlic and ginger. High-heat quick stir-frying allows the clams to fully absorb the flavors of the seasonings, resulting in a鲜嫩多汁 texture.
Charcoal-Grilled Soft Beef TendonPremium beef tendon marinated and slowly grilled over charcoal until tender and flavorful.
Roasted Beef TallowA dish made by roasting beef tallow, known for its rich aroma and savory flavor, often served with garlic and spices.
Pork SkinPork skin is cleaned, blanched to remove odor, then slowly stewed with water and seasonings until tender. It can be sliced or cut into strips and eaten cold, mixed, or stir-fried.
Charcoal-Grilled Chicken WingsCharcoal-grilled chicken wings are made from fresh chicken wings, slowly roasted over charcoal to achieve a golden, crispy skin and tender, juicy meat, served with a specially crafted sauce that delivers a unique flavor.
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.
Lamb KidneysLamb kidneys, also known as lamb腰 (yáng yāo), refer to the kidney part of sheep. Typically cleaned and then marinated with ingredients such as scallions, ginger, garlic, and cooking wine before being stir-fried or stewed to remove any fishy odor and enhance flavor.
