Even the staircase is sculpted in a dark, artistic style—a dream for detail lovers. 🍽️ Dishes: Traditional Teochew cuisine reinvented—pricey but worth it! Charcoal-grilled Giant Whelk: Aromatic and tender, reportedly baked with black truffle sauce, the whelk is springy and soaked in rich juices. Thirty-Year-Old Preserved Radish Porridge: A Chaozhou "antique-grade" dish, the porridge is simmered with dried scallop bits—so good even moms would want the recipe. 💁 Service: Private rooms come with dedicated servers who explain each dish’s story and eating tips (like how the preserved radish is older than me😂). [Facepalm] Price: Heart-stopping but unforgettable—signature dishes start at 300+. Pros: Top-tier ingredients (like triple-head abalone, air-flown yellow croaker) and creativity (think caviar-topped Teochew meat rolls). Cons: Portions are small; big eaters might leave hungry.
