A signature local dish, this soup delivers a delightful blend of sour and spicy notes that grow more appetizing with every sip. Served after meals, it aids digestion and helps sober up.

This is a distinctive and famous local snack. Unlike regular spring rolls, it is traditionally eaten by hand. The pungent mustard may make your eyes water and nose run at first, yet its unique flavor grows increasingly savory as you eat.

The duck has a golden-brown, ultra-crispy crust that melts in the mouth. The duck skin is the highlight — fragrant, tender and slightly chewy with a lingering aftertaste.

The dish gets its name from its special cooking method. Free-range local chicken is first soaked in natural brine from the ancient salt lake, then smoked with dozens of spices. Afterwards, it is slowly simmered in an earthen pot. Whether braised or made into soup, the chicken is incredibly tender, flavorful and aromatic, leaving a memorable taste.
