🍽Why This Menu Is Special

Steam Pot Chicken — Yunnan’s Most Famous Traditional Dish

The centerpiece of this menu is Yunnan’s legendary Steam Pot Chicken (汽锅鸡).

Unlike ordinary chicken soup, no water is added during cooking.

A specially designed clay steam pot allows condensed steam to slowly drip into the pot while the chicken cooks for hours.

The result is a remarkably clear, delicate, and intensely flavorful broth that showcases the natural taste of the ingredients.

Steam Pot Chicken is widely regarded as one of Yunnan’s signature dishes and is considered essential for visitors wanting to experience authentic local cuisine.

Bao Shao — Traditional Dai Minority Cooking

Another highlight is Bao Shao (包烧), a cooking method originating from the Dai ethnic minority communities of Xishuangbanna in southern Yunnan.

Ingredients are wrapped in aromatic leaves and slowly grilled.

The leaves trap moisture and fragrance, creating bold, smoky, and deeply aromatic flavors.

This cooking technique is rarely found outside Yunnan and remains one of the region’s most distinctive culinary traditions.
