Dishes
Eighteen-Dish PlatterEighteen-dish platter is a combination platter of various Chinese dishes, including meat, vegetables, seafood, and soy products, made by stir-frying, boiling, steaming, and frying.
Layered TripeQian Ceng Du is a traditional dish primarily made from pork stomach. During preparation, the pork stomach is carefully processed and sliced into thin pieces, then cooked using a unique technique that creates a layered appearance. It is seasoned with appropriate spices and finally prepared to perfection.
Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp PasteSalted egg yolk shrimp paste is a dish made from fresh shrimp and salted egg yolk. Shrimp is minced, seasoned, and mixed to form a smooth paste. The steamed and crushed egg yolk is blended evenly with the shrimp paste, then shaped by steaming or pan-frying. The finished dish has a golden color and a delicate, chewy texture.
Large Pearl Milk Brick IceA sweet dessert drink made with fresh milk, tea base, and large chewy pearls, served chilled as a creamy ice slush with rich milk and tea flavors.
Baba's Tender Pork SlicesA Sichuan dish made with tender pork slices stir-fried with vegetables and spices, known for its soft texture and spicy flavor.
Handcrafted Tender BeefHand-cut tender beef slices marinated with starch, egg white, and seasonings, then quickly stir-fried. Tender, smooth texture retains the original beef flavor.
Special Fried SquidFresh squid stir-fried with garlic, ginger, and chili for a savory and tender dish.
Brown Sugar Glutinous Rice CakeRed sugar glutinous rice cakes are a traditional dessert made primarily from glutinous rice and brown sugar. First, the glutinous rice is steamed and then mashed into a paste to form the rice cakes. Next, brown sugar is dissolved in water and boiled into a syrup, which is poured over the rice cakes. Finally, toasted sesame seeds or crushed peanuts are sprinkled on top for added aroma.
