Gao Ren (Tall man) Guan is not a restaurant meant for tall man only, but to retain and and promote Gao Zhou diet culture. So that we could taste the original and authentic Gao Zhou dishes which are not available at the other restaurants. The restaurant also serves some secret-recipe and special dishes, where the recipe was gotten from the owner's late grandfather. However, the recipe was not formally recorded and jotted down, therefore the recipe was created based on the taste in his memory and the good culinary skill of his mum. Therefore, there are stories behind every single dishes.
  

The restaurant aims to build up a place where guests feel at home, ad thus they choose to use simple ingredients and Gao Zhou cooking style to enable everyone got to taste the true flavour from Gao Zhou. The restaurant creates a quiet and comfortable environment where families and enjoy their meal here.
