Dishes
冰镇龙虾冰镇龙虾以鲜活龙虾为主料,经蒸煮或焯水后迅速冷却,使其肉质紧实鲜美。随后将龙虾放入冰水中浸泡,保持其清甜口感和细腻质地。通常搭配特制酱汁或简单调味,如蒜蓉、柠檬汁或芥末酱油,提升风味。
Tomato Paper-Bound FishA dish of fresh fish fillets marinated in tomato sauce, garlic, and ginger, then steamed wrapped in parchment paper. Tender fish with sweet and sour flavor.
Brown Sugar Glutinous Rice CakeRed sugar glutinous rice cakes are a traditional dessert made primarily from glutinous rice and brown sugar. First, the glutinous rice is steamed and then mashed into a paste to form the rice cakes. Next, brown sugar is dissolved in water and boiled into a syrup, which is poured over the rice cakes. Finally, toasted sesame seeds or crushed peanuts are sprinkled on top for added aroma.
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.
Garlic Paper-包裹鱼Garlic paper包 fish is a dish made with fresh fish marinated in garlic, ginger, and scallions, then steamed in parchment paper. The fish is cleaned, seasoned, sealed in the paper, and steamed at high heat to keep it tender and flavorful while preserving its natural taste.
Garlic LobsterGarlic shrimp is made with fresh shrimp as the main ingredient, combined with large amounts of minced garlic, ginger slices, green onion segments, and other辅料, prepared by high-heat stir-frying or stewing. After processing, the shrimp's intestinal vein is removed and stir-fried together with garlic, allowing the garlic aroma to fully penetrate the shrimp meat, resulting in a tender texture and rich fragrance.
Vegetable BuffetVegetable self-service is a buffet-style dish featuring various fresh vegetables such as cabbage, carrots, potatoes, bean sprouts, green peppers, and eggplants, prepared by stir-frying, blanching, or steaming to preserve their natural flavors.
Tengjiao Paper-Wrapped FishA Sichuan dish featuring fresh carp marinated in a special tienjiao sauce and steamed in parchment paper. The fish is tender with a spicy, numbing flavor from the Sichuan peppercorns.
Spicy Paper-Wrapped BullfrogA spicy dish featuring bullfrog wrapped in paper and steamed with chili, garlic, and ginger for a rich, aromatic flavor.
