Chahar Premium Lamb SlicesHand-picked lamb slices made from premium羊肉, marinated and quickly stir-fried or boiled to keep the meat tender. Main ingredient is fresh lamb, seasoned with scallions, ginger, and other spices.
Chahar LambChahar Lamb is a specialty dish made with fresh lamb meat, seasoned with spices and seasonings, and cooked by stewing or roasting. The main ingredient is lamb, with a delicious and tender texture.
Premium Calcium-Rich LambPremium high-calcium lamb uses fresh lamb as the main ingredient, selecting calcium-rich lamb bones to simmer for a long time, allowing the meat to absorb nutrients such as calcium. During cooking, the lamb is carefully processed, marinated with a secret sauce, then grilled or cooked. The result is tender meat with rich flavor.
TripeTripe, primarily made from the rumen of cattle, is finely processed to achieve a tender texture. It is typically sliced and served with spicy hot pot or cold dressing, offering a crisp and refreshing taste—making it a popular choice in hot pot dishes.
Clear Soup BaseThe clear soup base is built on a light broth that captures the freshness of various ingredients. Fresh vegetables and meats are combined with carefully selected spices and slowly simmered to create a clear, delicate flavor—this is a classic choice for hot pot.
Stir-fried TripeTripe is a traditional dish primarily made from pork or lamb stomach. During preparation, the tripe is sliced into thin strips and quickly stir-fried at high heat to cook it thoroughly while maintaining its tender texture. Seasonings such as scallions, ginger, and garlic can be added during the process to enhance flavor.
Sugar CakeSugar cake is a traditional dessert made primarily from flour and sugar. First, mix flour and water to form a dough, then combine sugar with a small amount of flour to create the filling. Divide the dough into small pieces, roll each into a flat circle, wrap around the sugar filling, and flatten again into a round cake shape. Finally, cook on a flat pan until both sides turn golden brown.
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.
Old Beijing FlatbreadOld Beijing flatbread is a traditional Beijing snack made primarily from flour, with added oil and sugar, crafted through steps such as kneading, rolling, stuffing, and baking. Its outer crust is golden and crispy, while the inside has distinct layers and richly flavored fillings—ideal as a breakfast accompaniment or afternoon tea treat.
