Hidden down an alley, this little shop has an understated grey-brick façade and pared-down decor. The home-style cooking on a short-but-sweet calligraphic menu focuses on river fish, with key ingredients like lotus roots shipped in from Hubei for authenticity. Try the signature lotus root pork rib soup cooked in an earthenware pot – the rich broth is packed with flavour. The braised tofu with fish roe and the egg-drop glutinous rice wine (in winter) are also good.
