Every aspect of the menu interprets China with the highest quality ingredients. In the spirit of authenticity we proudly serve prime beef, heirloom pork, all-natural free bird chicken, all-natural Scottish salmon, local organic mushrooms, tofu, and whenever possible or seasonally available organic produce. We make our own drink mixes, squeeze our own juices, and infuse liquors from the freshest botanicals possible.
