Dishes
Scallion Pork DumplingsGreen onion and pork dumplings, filled with fresh pork and fragrant green onions, handcrafted for a delicate taste. The dumpling wrappers are thin yet generously filled, offering a delicious flavor and rich broth. To prepare, mince the pork, chop the green onions finely, mix with seasonings to form the filling, then wrap into dumpling skins and boil until cooked through.
Noodles in Sour SoupNoodles made from flour are the main ingredient in sour soup, which is prepared with a fermented or vinegar-based acidic broth made from vegetables such as celery or cabbage, and optionally seasoned with a small amount of spicy oil and minced garlic. The noodles are first boiled, while the sour soup is either fermented or prepared by adding vinegar. Finally, the noodles are mixed with the sour soup and served.
