If you bring your elderly family members to Bihai Kitchen (Bihai Chufang), they’ll likely love it. The home-style (private chef) dishes here have bold, rich flavors that carry a wonderful, nostalgic old-school vibe. The owner and her team love chatting with guests and recommending their signature dishes, so they’ll definitely have plenty to talk about with the elders, all while enjoying a great meal. It’s the kind of food that is incredibly satisfying to indulge in every now and then, though eating it every single day might feel a bit too heavy on the body.
Key Dining Tips:
- The Rice is a Must: You absolutely need white rice to pair with the food here. While the restaurant also recommends their dumplings, we honestly just didn't have the stomach space for them. None of the dishes we ordered could be eaten without rice—they are visibly rich, savory, and oily. Eating the dishes by themselves is out of the question; even people who usually skip rice will find themselves reaching for a bowl. (Don't worry, though, the spiciness can be adjusted to your liking).
- Taro Rice Noodle Soup: It’s best to order this only if you have a large group. Even for a group of four, it’s not highly recommended because you’ll most likely end up with leftovers to take home—unless you cut back significantly on other dishes. The soup is packed with ingredients, and they do offer free refills on the broth.
- Shredded Pork with Dried Tofu: This dish is mostly dried tofu, and you'll have to do a bit of hunting for the shredded pork. You're guaranteed to get a chopstick-ful of tofu every time, but catching the pork requires a bit of luck or speed before your tablemates grab it all!
