The only pitfall I made when I came to Xinjiang was this Xinjiangke restaurant in Turpan.
The environment of the restaurant is really good, with ethnic style, but the dishes are really...
268 for a "roasted lamb leg with crispy skin" that is said to be for 4-5 people. Two people were not full after eating it. At first, I suspected that it was a small lamb leg for 2-3 people. However, I asked the waiter and he said that this was a large portion. The ones at the table next to me were only this small. I can only blame myself for not choosing a good restaurant.
Speaking of which, the bones of the lamb leg are not small, which is very disproportionate to the amount of meat. It feels like a lot of them were shaved off in advance. The roasted lamb leg with crispy skin with this amount of meat is nearly 100 yuan more expensive than that in Urumqi. Are the prices in Turpan so high...
The lamb leg meat is relatively crispy and should have been pre-processed. The crispy skin on the outside is a bit crispy on the top, and the surrounding and bottom parts feel a bit half-cooked.
I don't quite understand why this restaurant is ranked so high in the rankings. I hope the restaurant will focus more on the dishes and management, rather than on the rankings.
I was upset when I encountered this situation before returning to Beijing, but on second thought, it is precisely because of such a restaurant that the kindness of the vast majority of Xinjiang people and the deliciousness of Xinjiang cuisine are revealed.
Let's talk about other dishes.
To be honest, the "oil-wrapped liver" is grilled well, the lamb liver is not dry, and there is a little sweetness.
"Kavas" is too sweet, the kind that chokes the throat, be careful when ordering.
