Dishes
Liupu Chili NoodlesA spicy Sichuan-style noodle dish made with hand-pulled noodles and a signature chili oil sauce, known for its numbing heat and rich flavor.
JingjiuJingjiu is a type of baijiu made from grains through steaming, fermentation, and distillation, typically containing various Chinese medicinal herbs, offering a unique aroma and taste.
Original Flavor Shredded ChickenA cold dish made by boiling a whole chicken and tearing it by hand, then mixing with scallions, ginger, garlic, cilantro, and other seasonings for a fresh, savory flavor.
Slow-Cooked SauerkrautStewed sauerkraut is a traditional dish primarily made with sauerkraut. After long, slow cooking, the flavor of the sauerkraut becomes more intense and the texture softer. To prepare it, place the sauerkraut and appropriate seasonings in a pot, add enough water, and slowly simmer until the sauerkraut absorbs the flavors.
Crisp Cucumber SaladCrisp milk cucumber is a cold dish primarily made with milk cucumbers. After washing the cucumbers, slice or cut them into strips, then lightly salt and let sit for a while to draw out excess moisture. Squeeze out the water, then mix with minced garlic, vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil. The preparation is simple and highlights the refreshing crispness of the milk cucumber itself.
Stubborn BonesJiang Guti is a dish primarily made with pork bones, carefully selected and slowly stewed until tender and fully flavored. During preparation, a variety of spices and seasonings are added, and the dish is simmered over low heat for an extended period, allowing the rich marrow flavor to fully infuse into the broth, resulting in a deeply savory taste.
Secret-Recipe Chili OilSpecial chili oil made from dried chilies, roasted and ground into powder, then mixed with spices like star anise, Sichuan pepper, and cassia bark, and fried in hot oil. Flavor is enhanced by precise control of oil temperature and time, resulting in a bright red, aromatic chili oil.
Seaweed and Egg SoupNori egg drop soup is a soup dish primarily made with nori and eggs. The preparation is simple: first, cut the nori into small pieces and set aside the beaten eggs. Next, bring water to a boil in a pot, add the nori, and once it boils again, slowly pour in the egg mixture while quickly stirring with chopsticks to form egg flowers. Finally, season with salt and monosodium glutamate (MSG), then sprinkle with chopped green onions.
Spicy Cumin PowderCumin chili powder is a dish primarily seasoned with cumin, combined with chili powder and other spices. Select high-quality cumin seeds, grind them into powder, mix with an appropriate amount of chili powder, then add a small amount of salt and other secret-recipe spices. Stir well to complete. The finished cumin chili powder has a rich, aromatic flavor and is ideal as a seasoning for grilled meats, stir-fries, and other dishes.
