Dishes
Whole Roast DuckPeking duck is made from Beijing ducks, marinated and roasted in a special oven. The skin is crispy while the meat is tender, served with lotus buns, sweet bean sauce, scallions, and cucumber strips. Includes duck soup or duck blood vermicelli as side dishes for a complete experience.
Spring Duck SauceSpring-born roast duck sauce is a seasoning condiment for duck, made from sweet bean sauce, garlic paste, green onions, and sesame paste, with some versions adding soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil. Mix ingredients evenly to form a thick sauce for spreading on duck slices or dipping.
Sichuan Boiled Pork SlicesSichuan-style boiled pork slices is a dish made primarily with thin slices of lean pork, paired with vegetables such as mung bean sprouts and greens, and cooked by boiling. First, the vegetables are blanched, then the marinated pork slices are added to boiling water to cook through. Finally, a spicy and numbing sauce is prepared by stir-frying chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and other seasonings, resulting in a fresh, fragrant, tender, and smooth texture.
Steamed glutinous rice cakeZeng Gao is a traditional Chinese dessert made primarily from glutinous rice and red dates. The preparation involves soaking the glutinous rice, steaming it until cooked, then mixing it with red dates and steaming again in a zeng (a traditional steaming vessel) until the rice and dates are fully blended, resulting in a soft, sticky, and sweet texture.
Ziguangyuan Handmade Milk Skin YogurtZiguang Garden handmade dairy skin yogurt made from fresh milk, fermented to form a thin cream layer on top, with a smooth texture and rich milk aroma.
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.
Garlic Bok ChoyBraised baby bok choy with garlic is a refreshing vegetable dish featuring tender baby bok choy stir-fried simply with garlic. The dish has a bright color, crisp and tender texture, and an aromatic garlic flavor, making it a common favorite on family dinner tables.
Shrimp Fried NoodlesShrimp fried疙瘩 is a dish primarily made with wheat dumplings and fresh shrimp. The preparation involves boiling the wheat dumplings to about 80% doneness, then stir-frying them with cooked shrimp and vegetables until well combined, finally adding seasonings and stir-frying until evenly blended.
Sour Stir-fried AlfalfaSour Stir-fried Alfalfa is a dish made primarily with alfalfa (a vegetable), cooked with vinegar and other seasonings. To prepare it, wash and cut the alfalfa into segments, stir-fry until just cooked through, then add vinegar and minced garlic, quickly stir-frying until well combined to achieve a tangy and refreshing flavor.
Stir-fried Long Beans with EggplantStir-fried long beans and eggplant, blanched first then cooked together with seasoning for a soft, tender texture.
Fish-Flavored Shredded PorkFish-Flavored Shredded Pork is a classic Chinese dish made with pork strips as the main ingredient, combined with vegetables such as wood ear mushrooms, carrots, and green peppers.

Reviews
- lazy_bougainvilleaWas just walking by and decided to pop in for a bite, honestly didn't expect much but it was really good. The Peking duck was amazing, super crispy skin and tender meat, and their special sauce with it smelled incredible. The pork and egg stir fry with vinegar was also a winner, that sweet and sour thing going on, the eggs and pork slices were so flavorful. Place was clean, tablecloths all neat, servers were friendly and the food came out quick. We got the couple's set menu and the portions were huge, took some home too. Overall really happy with it, would come back for sure.
