Dishes
Roasted Chicken FrameRoast chicken frame is a dish primarily made with chicken bones. To prepare it, first clean the chicken bones thoroughly, then marinate them in a special seasoning for a while to absorb flavor. Next, place the marinated chicken bones on a grill and roast them over charcoal or in an oven until the skin turns golden and crispy, while the meat remains tender and juicy.
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.
Special Pork Rib EdgeSpecial Pork Rib Edge is a Northeastern Chinese barbecue dish, primarily made from the fatty 'heart-protecting meat' on the outer side of pork ribs. The meat is cut into strips, marinated with spices like salt, cumin, and chili powder, skewered onto metal skewers, and grilled over charcoal. During grilling, the fat renders, creating a crispy, charred exterior while the meat remains firm and chewy. It is typically served with dry seasoning for dipping.
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.
Lamb Skewers (Lamb Rib Meat)Lamb skewers made from lamb rib meat, marinated and grilled over charcoal, offering a smoky, tender flavor.
Soy Sauce Beef TendonSoy sauce beef tendon is a traditional dish primarily made with beef tendons. The preparation involves first stewing the beef tendons until they become tender and then slowly simmering them with soy sauce and spices, allowing the tendons to fully absorb the rich sauce and develop a deep color and intense soy aroma.
ToastBread slices are a flat food made primarily from flour, fermented and baked. During preparation, various nuts and dried fruits can be added to enhance texture and nutrition. The outer crust is golden and crispy, while the inside is soft and porous—ideal for eating alone or as a base for sandwiches and other dishes.
Chicken架Chicken架 (chicken frame) is a dish made from chicken bones. The main ingredient is chicken骨架, which is typically blanched and then simmered or braised with seasonings to absorb flavor. In some regions, it is also cooked by grilling or frying.
