I enjoy watching them plate it up as the gravy drips down the side of the bowl and onto the rice. It just looks gluttonous, don’t you think?<\/div>\n

A solid start. When it arrived, you could smell the gravy and the mushrooms. It’s clearly been cooked for a long time, and for a small bowl, this one was packed full of both rice and gravy. I was quite happy, indeed. As for the flavour: it wasn’t overly salty, but it still had plenty of flavour coming through from the pork and mushrooms. Expect to chow down on silky smooth fat – yum!<\/div>\n

A poor translation, but nonetheless, not a bad dish. I probably wouldn’t order it again, as I have had better elsewhere. But, it’s still alright. There was too much sauce for my liking, but when you’ve let the salty sauce drain off, the flavour from the tofu is just fine.<\/p>\n

Again, it isn’t going to set the world alight with news of incredible bamboo, but it’s a tasty way to get your veggies in for the day.<\/p>\n

I do enjoy squid, this one was very distinctly average, though. My recommendation: don’t bother. Check out RaoHe nightmarket’s squid stall<\/a>, instead.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It’s tough to decide whether this or the mushroom and pork gravy over rice are the best dishes, so why not just have both? It’s no secret that I love me some pork belly (I even cooked it for Christmas day!), and done this way in individual soup pots really intensifies the broth flavour and forces the meat to become effortlessly delicate. The flavour is good, the texture is good and the soup is clean and lovely – top marks.<\/p>\n

My final thought<\/b>
If you’re in the area, then drop by. If you live far away, then there are possibly better alternatives if your craving is for the pork gravy over rice, such as: JinFeng<\/a> in GuTing\u00a0or ChangJi pig blood soup<\/a> near YuanShan.<\/p>\n
