🍽️ Food Experience

Today I tried the Crispy Grass Carp Single‑Person Set Meal.

🍲 Hotpot Base

A refreshing broth made with corn, bitter melon, and red dates — cooling and nourishing.

🐟 Crispy Grass Carp Belly & Meat Combo

Once cooked, the fish is sweet, crisp, and pleasantly bouncy.You can taste the natural sweetness even without dipping sauce — incredibly satisfying.

🐟 Crispy Grass Carp Dragon Bone

This part has the crispiest texture. A must‑order for anyone who loves the meat near fish bones.

🍜 Grass Carp Fish Noodles

The fun part is, you can squeeze the noodles out yourself, which makes the process fun.After cooking, the noodles turn soft and slightly chewy. The set also includes a plate of vegetables to balance the meal. I personally recommend dipping everything — it enhances the flavor even more.

📚 Overall Review

The experience was excellent. Service was warm and attentive, and dishes were served quickly.The single‑person set is surprisingly satisfying — you get to try multiple cuts of the fish, and the portion is very filling.Highly recommend giving it a try.
