A: One of our most popular dishes is the minced chicken lettuce cups. We were the first ones to serve it in Hilo, more than 30 years ago. It’s still popular today. Our authentic Taiwanese beef noodle soup also is really good. Even native Taiwanese people would think we have done a good job with it. Q: What is one of Sky Garden’s signature dishes?
