As the starting point of the Silk Road, Xi'an's halal cuisine blends the wheat noodle culture of the Central Plains with the flavors of Western spices, creating a unique food tradition.
1. Huanggui Shizibing
The filling includes rose and red bean paste, offering a variety of choices, especially fitting for autumn and winter seasons.
2. Lamb Paomo
It is known as the "breakfast of Xi'an people." The most authentic way to eat it is to tear the hard bun into small pieces the size of yellow beans, then let the chef pour rich lamb soup over it.
3. Guantang Bao
Beef and lamb filling is the signature. Be careful when biting it, as the soup inside is hot; sip the soup first before eating the filling, paired with a special vinegar sauce for a refreshing taste.
4. Majiang Liangpi
It is chewy and smooth, with rich sesame sauce, paired with spicy oil for a sour and spicy appetizing kick.
These dishes not only represent Xi'an's food culture but are also living fossils of the flavors of the thousand-year Silk Road, with each bite carrying the taste of history!
