Crispy and juicy pork, coated in a sweet and sour sauce that is loved by many customers, making them want to eat it again and again. This is the story of the sweet and sour pork from Nan-en, located on the ２F of the Main Tower. It is one of the most popular a la carte dishes, and the secret lies in the taste of the sweet and sour sauce, which has remained unchanged since the hotel opened in 1971.
Nan-en's sweet and sour sauce is an original recipe, with the fruit of the hawthorn tree providing a unique sweet and sour flavor. The richness of the sweetness comes from coarse sugar, and the sauce is finished off with a touch of lemon, which is simmered to bring out a refreshing aroma and a deep, rich flavor. In addition to pork shoulder, the dish is garnished with green and red bell peppers, long green onions, pineapple, and a rare ingredient - Japanese pickled shallots (rakkyo). These ingredients have been used since the hotel opened, and not only add to the flavor, but also provide a unique texture that many find addictive.
Nan-en offers authentic Cantonese cuisine that brings out the natural flavors of the ingredients. The sweet and sour pork, which has been loved for nearly half a century, is a dish that represents the origins of Nan-en's flavors and has been a part of the hotel's history.
