Dishes
Ice JellyIce jelly is a traditional dessert made from ice jelly seeds, processed into transparent gel-like blocks. To prepare it, the blocks are cut into细条 or small pieces and mixed with ingredients such as brown sugar syrup, sesame seeds, crushed peanuts, and fruit pieces. It has a smooth, refreshing texture that cools and refreshes the body.
Signature Sour FishSignature sour cabbage fish is made with fresh grass carp as the main ingredient, combined with pickled sour cabbage, ginger slices, garlic cloves, dried chilies, and Sichuan peppercorns. The fish slices are stewed together with the sour cabbage, resulting in tender fish meat and a rich, flavorful broth.
Xinjiang Crusted Lamb SkewersXinjiang-style battered lamb skewers, made by cutting fresh lamb into pieces, marinating it, and then threading it onto skewers. A specially prepared batter is evenly coated on the surface of the skewers, then slowly grilled over charcoal until the outside is crispy and the inside is tender, with rich meat aroma and a fragrant batter flavor.
Steamed and Drunk Freshwater ShrimpA cold dish made by steaming freshwater shrimp and marinating them in a seasoned wine-based sauce, resulting in a rich, savory flavor.
Tomato FishTomato Fish is a dish primarily made with fish meat and tomatoes. The preparation typically involves slicing the fish and stewing it together with tomato chunks, allowing the tenderness of the fish to blend perfectly with the sweet and sour flavor of the tomatoes, resulting in a bright red color.
