A dish of braised tofu made with spring water has given 雅琇山莊 (Ya‑xiu Mountain Villa) a dazzling reputation in the Dali Mountain area. The master chefs’ extraordinary skills not only keep local residents coming back to entertain guests here, but also attract seasoned travelers from afar who enjoy authentic mountain cuisine. If you come to Fengqi Lake and don’t want to eat a train station lunch, consider trying the tofu feast made with the exclusive secret recipe from 雅琇山莊’s restaurant. The owner’s hospitable nature, combined with the chefs’ deft hands, means the tables are always full. A shared set of dishes for friends, or for the whole family, lets you taste the delicacies of Fengqi Lake’s mountainous region while filling your memories with the taste of happiness. The chefs’ signature dish is a tofu banquet: tofu made from spring water, braised in a special soy‑sauce mixture and served with 阿里山哇沙比 (Ali Mountain Wa‑sha‑bi). Each course is a delight and earns rave reviews. There are also special dishes such as slow‑braised bamboo shoots, sesame oil chicken, and chilled mountain cat salad—flavors that are sweet, salty, savory, and fragrant, sinking into the heart. The most remarkable is a pork knuckle tendon that is hard to find elsewhere. The owner goes to the market every day to hand‑pick it; it can’t be found in other places and is difficult to match in skill with 雅琇’s craftsmanship. It is neither greasy nor overly soft, offering a unique, slightly crunchy yet tender texture that stays unforgettable. A shared meal costs between 2,500 and 4,000 NTD per table, as all ingredients are fresh organic.
