How to order, step by step
- Order at the front: point at the fritters or the menu and say how many
- Pay in cash
- Eat at a table inside (more seats are reported upstairs) or take it away
- The signature fritter contains oysters and most items are deep-fried, so skip it if you have a shellfish allergy
What to order solo: One oyster fritter, plus a chive stick or a slice of radish cake if you are still hungry.
Best time to go alone: A weekday afternoon, away from the weekend crowds on Dihua Street.
