Dishes
Youyu High Mountain LambYouyu High Mountain Lamb features tender and flavorful lamb from high-altitude pastures in Youyu, Shanxi, slow-cooked with ginger and scallions to preserve its natural taste.
Wide Rice NoodlesWide rice noodles, a broad ribbon-shaped vermicelli made from sweet potato starch. Typically, the wide rice noodles are soaked in warm water to soften them before being stir-fried or added to soups with meats and vegetables. They have a smooth, tender texture that absorbs broth well, enhancing the overall flavor.
Fresh Hand-Cut LambHand-cut fresh mutton, made from freshly selected lamb and meticulously sliced by hand. The mutton slices are as thin as cicada wings, cooking instantly in the pot while preserving the meat's tenderness and nutritional value. With a simple hot pot method, you can savor the authentic flavor of the mutton.
New Zealand High-Calcium LambNew Zealand high-calcium lamb features tender mutton from New Zealand, rich in calcium, slow-cooked until melt-in-the-mouth, with carrots and onions for natural sweetness and depth of flavor.
Mixed Vegetables PlatterSeasonal vegetable platter is a dish made from a selection of fresh, seasonal vegetables. The vegetables are carefully washed and cut into bite-sized pieces, preserving their natural flavors. With simple seasoning and elegant presentation, it offers a colorful and diverse taste experience, making it an excellent choice for healthy eating.
Air-Freighted Crispy TripeAir-freighted crispy beef tripe is a dish primarily made with fresh beef tripe. It uses high-quality tripe that has been quickly frozen and transported, then soaked in clean water before being sliced. The slices are briefly blanched in boiling water until they curl and change color, preserving their crisp texture. It is typically mixed with garlic slices, cilantro, chili oil, and other seasonings, or served as a hot pot ingredient.
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.
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.
SpinachSpinach is a dish primarily made with fresh spinach as the main ingredient. The preparation typically involves washing the spinach, then quickly stir-frying it in hot oil, adding适量 salt and seasonings, and cooking until the spinach becomes tender and vibrant in color.
