Featured Dishes
Spring Bamboo Shoots and Squid
Savor the tender, chewy texture of Xiamen fresh squid – prized for its sweetness, and at its best March through August.
This dish offers an harmonious blend of tanginess, saltiness, a subtle hint of alcohol, and the refreshing aroma of lemon.
The delicate and crunchy spring bamboo shoots further enhance the overall taste with their clean and fragrant flavor.
Dalian Conch
Experience the plump flesh of live conch sourced from Dalian, available only during the spring season.
Paired with Italian parsley sauce atop Qinghai-Tibet Plateau's Shannan Highland barley, this dish offers a delightful combination of pleasant mouthfeel and the rich aroma of the highlands.
Mountain Perilla Salad
The mountain perilla leaves used in this warm salad are sourced from Taiwan, primarily found in the mid to low-altitude mountainous regions and pristine forests.
After a brief blanching, the leaves are accompanied by Parmesan cheese, white wine, and a light foam made from parmesan cheese.
Finished with a sprinkle of crispy chili flakes, this salad offers a refreshing and layered taste sensation.
Lamb Chops
Indulge in tender lamb chops from Inner Mongolia, slow-cooked at low temperatures for an hour to preserve their succulence.
Accompanied by a seasonal Chinese toon shoots sauce, the unique aroma of the toon perfectly complements the lamb chops, showcasing the distinctive local flavors of the season.
Strawberry
By combining fresh strawberries with the essence of spring, OMBRA creates a creamy basil sauce that infuses the strawberries and strawberry ice cream with a delightful countryside feel.
