What to Order
Signature Eel with fried rice / Fresh water eel in a stone pot
This dish features fresh water eel served in a hot stone pot, often accompanied by stir-fried rice and vegetables, creating a crispy bottom layer.
"The best one is eel with the rice in claypot. It’s hard to find good claypot in Vancouver. This one is very good. Rice is mixed with vegetables and hs crispy bottom of the claypot."
Gastronome F
Braised Pork / Four seasons pork

"Their braised pork was really good one of if not the best I have had."

"I would especially recommend the chicken dishes. The chicken, whether served as an appetizer or a main, was handled very well. It was tender, juicy, and completely free of any unpleasant odor."
YU U
Traditional Yangchou Rice / Vegetable rice
A well-fried rice dish that is neither too oily nor too salty, with a good balance of toppings to rice and distinct, flavorful grains.
"The vegetable rice was fragrant and nicely stir fried, with each grain distinct and full of flavor."
YU U
Signature squirrel fish
A deboned fish dish with a great sweet and sour flavor, though some found the corn starch batter a bit chewy.
"Signature squirrel fish ($45.99) - great sweet and sour flavour. The fish had a bit too much corn starch batter on the outside making it chewy. The fish was cut nicely and deboned well"
