Our Cumin Lamb is full of bold aroma and warm spice.
Tender lamb is stir-fried with cumin and chilli over Formosa’s wok heat, bringing out a deep, smoky flavour that is perfect for winter.

It’s savoury, slightly spicy, and full of that rich cumin fragrance — the kind of dish that makes you want one more bowl of rice.

Formosa’s special house-made chilli oil is here 🌶️

If you love spicy food, don’t miss this one. It’s not just about the heat — it’s about the aroma, the depth, and the aftertaste that stays beautifully in your mouth.

The extra flavour comes from shrimp and Taiwanese pickled radish, giving it a savoury seafood fragrance with a rich Taiwanese-style kick.

Ask our staff next time you visit — it might become your new favourite side.
