The name Shiyuan comes from the surroundings of the Institute of Oceanography dormitory, which Chen Huaiqing found beautiful and decided to name the restaurant after. Being bold in breakthroughs and constantly innovating is essential for a business to stand firm; Chen Huaiqing believes that "innovation" is one of the necessary conditions. Based on the concept of three ways to enjoy live fish, he continuously researched and developed, contributing to a trend of multiple ways to eat live fish, with over 170 different methods now. To enhance ordering efficiency, he even tailored a POS system in 1990, reducing ordering time and improving order accuracy. At that time, Chen Huaiqing purchased a parking lot larger than the restaurant, which raised questions from various sectors; today, faced with insufficient parking spaces, everyone understands his foresight. The signature dish of Shiyuan Live Fish is "Dad's Fish," a dish created by the founder for his daughter, using authentic Hakka pickled vegetables finely chopped and simmered for a long time to give the fish a sweet, salty, and sour flavor. The Ginger Shredded Fish Soup evolved from the Ginger Shredded Pork Intestines...
