Dishes
Salmon and Arctic Scallop SashimiFresh salmon and arctic scallop slices served raw, offering a delicate and savory taste with a clean finish.
Scallion Sauce River PrawnsThis dish features river prawns as the main ingredient, cooked with three types of scallions (typically spring onions, shallots, and dried scallions). The fresh prawns are cleaned, then deep-fried or pan-fried until the shells are crispy. Separately, the three scallions are stir-fried until fragrant, and a special teriyaki or soy-based sauce is added and simmered. The prawns are then tossed back into the wok with the sauce, ensuring they are evenly coated. The result is prawns with a springy texture, rich sauce, and a pronounced scallion aroma.
Ancient Recipe Stir-Fried Abalone with Qin PepperThis dish features fresh abalone as the main ingredient, paired with distinctive Qin pepper. The abalone is cleaned, sliced, and briefly blanched. Qin pepper is deseeded, cut into sections, and stir-fried with ginger and garlic until fragrant. In a hot wok with oil, the abalone slices are quickly stir-fried, followed by the Qin pepper and other ingredients. Seasoned with salt and a little soy sauce, it is stir-fried until the abalone is cooked through and the pepper aroma is fully released. The dish highlights the tender, springy texture of the abalone and the unique pungent fragrance of Qin pepper.
Homemade Pork Jelly with Soft-Boiled EggHomemade Pork Jelly with Soft-Boiled Egg is a traditional cold dish made primarily from pork skin, trotters, or hocks, paired with soft-boiled eggs. The pork parts are cleaned, simmered with spices for a long time until collagen is fully released. The broth is strained, poured into a container with peeled soft-boiled eggs, then cooled until set. The resulting jelly is translucent, with a springy texture, and the egg yolk remains semi-liquid.
Braised Free-Range Chicken with Thumb-Sized Flower RollsThis dish features free-range chicken braised with hand-made, thumb-sized flower rolls. The chicken is cut into pieces, stir-fried to remove gaminess, then simmered with ginger, scallions, cooking wine, soy sauce, and water over low heat until tender and flavorful. The flower rolls are added later to absorb the rich broth, becoming soft and savory. The final dish offers tender chicken, chewy rolls, and a robust sauce.
Modern Floral Smoked FishModern Floral Smoked Fish uses fresh grass carp or sea bass as the main ingredient. After scaling and cutting into pieces, the fish is marinated with basic seasonings like salt, cooking wine, scallion, and ginger. The core technique involves placing the fish pieces in a specialized smoking oven for low-temperature slow smoking, along with dried edible flowers such as jasmine, osmanthus, or rose, allowing the fish to naturally absorb a delicate floral aroma during the process. The finished dish has an amber-colored skin and firm texture with a unique, complex fragrance.
