General Tso's Chicken was crafted by Peng Changgui in Taiwan in 1952. Though it didn't gain much popularity initially, it soon became a sensation upon its introduction to the United States. Today, it stands as one of the most beloved Chinese dishes worldwide.

During the Qing Dynasty, a renowned restaurant near the Wanfu Bridge in Chengdu gained widespread acclaim for its unique dish, thanks to the extraordinary culinary skills of the owner's wife—a woman adorned with distinctive freckles on her face. She masterfully prepared tofu with a blend of spices, creating a sensory experience that was simultaneously spicy, numbing, aromatic, and profoundly satisfying. This exceptional dish became known as Mapo Tofu, named after the freckled lady.
The fame of Mapo Tofu quickly spread, drawing numerous patrons to the restaurant solely for the pleasure of indulging in this culinary masterpiece. Its popularity transcended mere gastronomy, earning mentions in various lifestyle literatures of the Qing Dynasty. Eminent personalities of the time even expressed their admiration through poetic verses dedicated to the dish.
Today, Mapo Tofu has transcended its origins and become a star of Sichuan Cuisine, delighting palates worldwide. Its fiery and numbing qualities, coupled with the tantalising aroma emanating from the beef and Sichuan Bean Paste, the velvety texture of the tofu, and the signature Mala sensation derived from Sichuan chilies and peppercorns, make it a truly addictive delicacy. For enthusiasts of Sichuan cuisine, Mapo Tofu stands as an irresistible testament to the rich culinary heritage of the region.
A delicious twist on a classic Sichuan dish, our vegan Mapo Tofu uses shiitake mushrooms instead of beef mince for a rich, umami flavour. Silky tofu cubes are simmered in a spicy, aromatic sauce made with Sichuan peppercorns, fermented black beans, and our signature chilli oil. The shiitake mushrooms add a hearty texture and depth, creating a satisfying and mouthwatering dish that's both fiery and comforting. Perfect with a bowl of steamed rice, this vegan Mapo Tofu offers a flavorful experience for all.
A gift from Guizhou[pronounced: gway·jow] province, a place that naturally lacks salt. Guizhou people have had to devise innovative ways to maintain their sodium levels and create delicious dishes without the assistance of salt. It would be considered a mission impossible for any other cuisine, but the people of Guizhou have accomplished it splendidly. One of their secrets lies in the creation of sour stocks, with the tomato sour stock, known as the red stock, standing out the most. They blend cherry tomatoes with ginger, garlic, and chilies, allowing it to age for a minimum of 30 days. The resulting stock is tangy and aromatic, pairing excellently with fish and seafood.
This dish introduced Guizhou cuisine to the world—a cuisine that may not be as popular as Sichuan or Cantonese but is brimming with distinctive techniques and explosive flavours. In our Guizhou hot and sour fish stew, we faithfully follow the traditional method of crafting our own red stock. We serve it with basa fish, seasonal vegetables, and wood ear mushrooms. It is light in calories yet abundant in flavours—a must-try. If you wish to learn more about Guizhou Cuisine, please read our blog post by clicking the link below.

These medium-hot chilies, pickled with star anise, sand ginger, and a medley of spices, bring a rich aroma to the dish.
At the heart of this stir-fry is tender, juicy minced pork, paired with wood ear mushrooms and spring bamboo shoots for a satisfying crunch. Enhanced by Sichuan bean paste and pickled ginger, each bite reveals layers of complex flavours, making this dish a perfect balance of taste and texture.

When talking about this dish, one cannot omit the name of Su Dongpo, a legendary figure who was not only a celebrated poet and calligrapher but also a culinary connoisseur. He is widely credited with creating this dish and even penned a verse about it: 慢著火,少著水,火候足時它自美 (Slow the fire, use less water; when the cooking time is sufficient, it will naturally be beautiful). The dish consists of cubed pork belly slow-cooked in a mixture of Shaoxing Wine, soy sauce, and aromatic spices. Although the seasoning is uncomplicated, the cooking time is crucial.
