Dishes to know on this menu

Wonton: Small dumplings in a thin square wrapper, loosely gathered rather than pleated. Served in clear broth (wonton soup, often with egg noodles), deep-fried as an appetizer, or tossed in chili oil as a Sichuan cold plate, "red oil wontons" or hong you chao shou. On this menu as: Cumin Lamb Wontons.
Rice noodle rolls: Sheets of freshly steamed rice batter rolled around shrimp, beef, char siu or a fried cruller, then sliced and dressed with a sweetened soy sauce. Slippery, soft and mild, it is a dim sum staple that is also sold plain from street carts. On this menu as: Chee Cheong Fun.
Turnip cake: A savory steamed cake of grated daikon radish and rice flour, studded with Chinese sausage and dried shrimp, cut into slabs and pan-fried until the outside browns. Despite the name there is no turnip in it; the Cantonese word for daikon translates that way. On this menu as: Pan Fried Turnip Cake.
Fried rice: Day-old rice stir-fried with egg, scallion and whatever the kitchen adds. Yangzhou (Yang Chow) style means shrimp, char siu and peas, and is the version most menus mean by "house special". Good fried rice is dry and separate-grained, never wet. On this menu as: Wagyu Steak Fried Rice.
Mapo tofu: Soft tofu in a glossy red sauce of fermented broad-bean paste (doubanjiang), chili and ground Sichuan peppercorn, traditionally with a little minced beef or pork. The name honors the pockmarked (ma) old woman (po) said to have invented it in Chengdu; a vegetarian version is common. On this menu as: Silken Mapo Tofu.
Dry-fried green beans: Green beans (or shredded beef) flash-fried in oil until blistered and wrinkled, then tossed with minced pork, preserved vegetable, garlic and chili. "Dry-fried" (gan bian) is the technique: no sauce, just a hot wok and seasoning that clings. On this menu as: Dry-Fried Green Beans.
