Dishes
Nine GridNine-grid is a dish featuring various ingredients arranged in separate compartments, typically including meat, vegetables, and staple foods. Each compartment holds a distinct ingredient, commonly chicken, beef, pork, tofu, greens, and rice. The dish is prepared by steaming, boiling, or stir-frying to preserve the original flavors of each ingredient.
Crispy Fried Enoki MushroomsDry-fried enoki is a dish featuring enoki mushrooms as the main ingredient. After washing and slicing, the mushrooms are marinated, coated with starch or flour, then deep-fried until golden and crispy. The result is a dish with a crisp exterior and tender interior, offering a unique texture.
Beef SkewersBeef skewers are made by cutting selected beef into chunks and threading them onto bamboo skewers. After marinating, they are slowly grilled over charcoal until the outside is charred and the inside remains tender and juicy. The meat is delicious on its own but even better when paired with a special sauce.
SardineSardine is a dish primarily made with fresh sardines, typically cleaned and gutted, then marinated briefly with salt and lemon juice before being pan-fried or grilled to achieve a crispy skin and tender flesh.
Glutinous Rice Cake with Ice JellyZamba ice jelly is a cold dish made primarily from glutinous rice balls and ice jelly. The rice balls are steamed and pounded, while the ice jelly is made by soaking and filtering ice jelly seeds, resulting in a smooth texture. It's typically served with brown sugar syrup, crushed peanuts, sesame, and fruits.
Soul-Stealing Duck HeadsA spicy Sichuan dish made with duck heads simmered in a rich blend of spices and chili, delivering intense flavor and aroma.

Pressure Cooker OystersPressure cooker oysters is a dish made primarily with fresh oysters, seasoned and simmered in a pressure cooker. After cleaning the oysters, they are combined with scallions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and cooking wine, then pressure-cooked until tender and fully flavored.
Fresh ShrimpFresh shrimp is a dish primarily made with fresh shrimp. During preparation, the shrimp are typically cleaned and kept to preserve their natural freshness.
