Brand Story
Founded in 1875 during the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty by Manchu chef Na Jifeng in Wula Street, Jilin, Fengjiyuan traces its roots to imperial court cuisine. Na's ancestors served as imperial chefs, and he combined their expertise with local ingredients and Manchu customs to create signature dishes like white pork with blood sausage and sauerkraut hot pot. During the Republic era, the restaurant moved to Jilin City, becoming a favorite gathering spot for officials and scholars. Its hot pot, featuring premium pork belly simmered to tenderness in a savory broth with a secret dipping sauce, remains a beloved delicacy. Fengjiyuan is not just a restaurant but a vital bearer of Manchu food culture, with its cooking techniques listed as provincial intangible cultural heritage. Today, it continues to uphold traditional methods, keeping a century of flavor alive.

Cultural Note
Fengjiyuan's culinary art originates from Manchu imperial kitchens, blending with folk customs of the Northeast. Its hot pot embodies the boldness of 'one-pot cooking' and the refinement of 'slow simmering'. The preparation of white pork demands strict selection and precise heat control, while blood sausage requires seasoned skill for a tender texture. Passed down through master-apprentice tradition for over a century, these techniques are a living fossil for studying Manchu food culture.
