Dishes
Skewered Gluten with功夫 SauceA popular Chinese street food made by grilling marinated gluten skewers, served with a spicy-savory sauce and fresh herbs.
Baozi SandwichA traditional Shaanxi snack made by stuffing grilled flatbread with seasoned meat or vegetables.
Old Store Beef Noodle SoupA hearty dish featuring tender beef and homemade flatbread simmered in a rich broth, offering deep savory flavors and satisfying texture.
Stir-Fried Noodle SoupStir-fried noodle soup is a dish primarily made with pieces of flatbread, stir-fried together with vegetables and meats. The flatbread is usually baked or pan-fried and then cut into pieces, then cooked in a wok with onions, green peppers, carrots, and pork or beef. After adding seasonings, the ingredients are stir-fried evenly so that the flatbread absorbs the sauce, resulting in a soft, chewy texture with rich layers of flavor.
Beef Stir-fry (Regular)A classic dish made with beef and vegetables, quickly stir-fried for a savory and tender taste.
Beef Noodle SoupBeef泡馍 is made with beef brisket or beef as the main ingredient, combined with vermicelli and pieces of baked flatbread (mofan). It is stewed with aromatics such as green onions, ginger, garlic, star anise, and cassia bark. The beef is slowly simmered until tender, then the flatbread pieces are broken up and soaked in the broth, allowing the bread to absorb the rich flavors of the soup.
Raw Meat Stir-Fry with FlatbreadA dish of fresh pork slices stir-fried with vegetables and served with soft flatbread soaked in hot broth.
Stir-fried Pork Tenderloin with Crumbled FlatbreadStir-fried Pork Tenderloin with Crumbled Flatbread is a Northwestern Chinese dish featuring thinly sliced pork tenderloin and small pieces of 'paomo' (a type of fermented flatbread). The pork is quickly stir-fried until just cooked, then seasoned with scallions, ginger, garlic, and chili. Pre-crumbled flatbread pieces are added to the wok and stir-fried together with the meat and sauce, allowing the bread to absorb the flavorful juices. The dish results in tender pork and bread pieces that are slightly chewy on the outside and soaked with savory broth inside.
Vegetable Stir-fryA quick stir-fried dish made with a mix of fresh vegetables, seasoned simply and cooked rapidly to retain crunch and nutrients.
Braised Chicken Feet with Tiger SkinHǔpí Fèngzhǎo (Tiger Skin Chicken Feet) is renowned for its unique preparation method and delicious flavor. The chicken feet are first deep-fried until the skin becomes crispy and bubbled, forming a 'tiger skin' texture. They are then marinated with spices and seasonings to absorb rich flavors. During cooking, the chicken feet fully absorb the sauce, becoming tender and succulent, with skin and bones easily separating and the meat remaining juicy and delicate. This dish is not only tasty but also rich in collagen, which nourishes the skin.
Honey-date Steamed CakeA traditional Chinese sweet dessert made by steaming glutinous rice, red dates, and honey dates together, resulting in a soft and sweet flavor.
