Flame Beggar's ChickenFlame Beggar's Chicken is a traditional Chinese dish made with a whole young chicken, mushrooms, ham, and winter bamboo shoots. The chicken is stuffed, wrapped in lotus leaves, covered with yellow clay, and slow-roasted in charcoal or an oven. Before serving, liquor is poured over the clay shell and ignited to create a flame effect. Once cracked open, the chicken is infused with lotus leaf aroma, resulting in tender, fall-off-the-bone meat with a distinctive flavor.
Sea Cucumber and Crispy Rice SoupA nourishing soup made with dried sea cucumber and crispy rice, simmered in broth for a delicate, savory flavor.
A Gong Beef Brisket Hot PotA Gong Beef Brisket Hot Pot is a stewed dish featuring beef brisket as the main ingredient. It primarily uses beef brisket with tendons and membranes, cut into chunks and cooked in a pot with ingredients like daikon radish and dried tofu skin. During preparation, the beef brisket is first blanched to remove gaminess, then simmered slowly with spices such as ginger slices, star anise, and cinnamon until tender and flavorful. The broth is rich and concentrated, with all ingredients absorbing its essence. It is typically served in a clay pot or a pot with good heat retention to maintain warmth.
