TzuyangTzuyang’s reviewHighly recommended

“The mapo tofu with a subtle Sichuan pepper aroma and the chive dumplings are addictive”

  • Mapo tofu (spicy Sichuan tofu)BestStrong aroma but not off-putting, and the tofu is silky soft
  • Liu Rou Duan (soy-glazed chewy fried pork, similar to tangsuyuk)Chewy soy-based pork, perfect as a drinking snack
  • Buchu-mandu (chive dumplings)Juicy with a chewy wrapper, the best of the dumplings

Liked

  • Dumpling wrappers are hand-rolled and chewy
  • Sichuan pepper aroma is not off-putting
  • Dumplings are well seasoned even without soy sauce

Downsides

  • Sichuan pepper aroma gets stronger as it cools
  • Kimchi dumplings have a strong flavor and are a matter of taste
Service
The owner runs it alone and is kind enough to even reheat the dumplings
Good for
Mapo tofu fans, drinking snacks
Value
The chive and egg stir-fry is cheap and good
Tips
  • If you can't eat Sichuan pepper, ask them to leave it out
  • Eat the mapo tofu together with the Yangzhou fried rice
  • Top the mapo tofu with the chive and egg stir-fry
