  Signature dish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A signature dish is a recipe that identifies an individual chef.
In practice a chef's signature dish often changes with time or they may claim several signature dishes.
In a weaker sense, a signature dish may become associated with an individual restaurant, particularly if the chef who created it has since moved on or died.

The dish, although a little too milky, comes with a generous serving of fresh steamed fish and thick vermicelli.
