The environment is elegant, the dishes are exquisite, delicious and the service is good. The dishes taste authentic, the oily noodles are very strong, and the pot helmet is very soft with spicy seeds. Suitable for gatherings and business banquets. Very good experience, will come again next time.

    There are still a few days until the end of 2023, but the emotional expressions of farewell in the circle of friends have come earlier than in previous years! Some people don't understand 2023, some people complain about 2023, some people hate 2023, and some people can't get out of 2023. It has to be said that 2023 has indeed broken the calm of previous years. Everyone wants to leave quickly in 2023, but they can never go back to the mixed joys and sorrows of those years. The Westin Hotel Xi'an is the only museum-themed hotel in Xi'an. It is located in the core area of ​​the "Tang Dynasty City That Never Sleeps", a Tang culture theme scenic spot in Xi'an. When you enter the door, the neon lights reflect your mind, and when you go out, you can see the scenery of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. There is no other hotel in Xi'an that can compare with that extravagant feeling. I think if you come to Xi'an for tourism, living here is like living in Chang'an in the prosperous Tang Dynasty! Immerse yourself in the prosperity of the prosperous times! While the Westin Hotel Xi'an has resumed normal operations this year, it has also upgraded various departments! The upgrade of the museum, the renovation of the lobby bar, and the renewal of the Chinese restaurant. For me who loves delicious food, the changes in Chinese restaurants are my most interesting focus. Xi'an is a city with a tourism label. Among the six elements of tourism experience (eating, living, traveling, shopping, and entertainment), "eating" ranks first. It can be seen that eating is very important. I personally feel the same way. If I eat happily every day in a foreign land, I won't miss home! So the saying "I don't miss home when I'm full" is very philosophical! The renovated element Chinese restaurant still gives people a sense of simplicity, elegance, solemnity and generosity. The luxury of Chinese elements is expressed in a restrained way. The kitchen is managed by the Cantonese chef Chen team. The dishes are elegant and generous, clean and refreshing, and the core elements of Cantonese cuisine can be online one by one! This fully reflects the skilled and confident ability and foundation of the chef team. This is a hotel meal that I am very satisfied with at the end of 2023. There is no exaggerated expression, no exaggerated decoration, no homogeneous imitation, and no design routine. Food can't deceive people. Use classics to reshape classics and use classics to present classics. This is also the case in today's life. Limited editions and commemorative editions are all short-lived. Only classics will never go wrong! Delicious food is always good, and classics never go out of style. 2023 is very lucky for me, or I can say that I have good luck. To be precise, my good show has just begun! [Proud] The prosperous Tang Dynasty is close to the wonderland, Chang'an Westin. At the end of the year, guests and friends are feasted, and the elements show true feelings.

    When it comes to Xi'an, tasting snacks is indispensable. Today, Ctrip's "Shimeilin" came to the ancient capital of Xi'an and opened the "Shimeilin" Chef Banquet-Xi'an Station Food Appreciation Meeting. Maybe many friends' first reaction is to eat snacks in Huimin Street? In fact, as a Chinese element restaurant, it is a high-end version of Xi'an snacks, but it does not lose the authenticity of traditional snacks! The price is a bit expensive, 320/person, excluding taxes and service fees, but it seems to be free for SPG members. [Cold noodles, stir-fried lotus root, frozen meat] The cold noodles are similar to those eaten outside. The only drawback is that the chili is not too spicy and not particularly fragrant. Later, I asked the chef, and the chef said that you can tell the waiter when placing an order. All dishes can be customized! The stir-fried lotus root uses nine-hole lotus. The knife skills are impeccable. The thickness is evenly cut, and then rolled together after the production is completed. The taste is good! Meat jelly, the meat jelly of Westin is slightly different from what you eat outside...but the baby doesn't know what the secret is...it's chewy and refreshing, and full of energy. [Hot and Sour Soup] This hot and sour soup is different from other hot and sour soups. In the traditional hot and sour soup, large shrimps, scallops, etc. are added. At the same time, it also has all the essence of traditional hot and sour soup. [Northwest Flavor Cumin Lamb] Cumin lamb has a feeling of cumin fried plus, that is, the meat is large, it tastes very strong, and there is no mutton smell. In one sentence, it is summed up! Delicious! It's really delicious! 233 [Hulu Chicken] When it comes to Shaanxi characteristics, the hulu chicken must be mentioned. It is first steamed, then steamed in a cage, and then the whole chicken is fried in a pan. The color is golden, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, the flavor is fragrant and mellow, and the chopsticks fall off the bone. It is very fragrant when eaten directly, and there is usually a dish of pepper and salt pepper on the side. [Spicy fish cooked on stone] Personally, I think the tricks are better than the taste…First, heat the casserole and the stones in the pot until they are boiling hot, and then the chef brings it to the table to cook. When the fish is thrown in, the sound is sour and refreshing. After adding the seasoning, cover the pot, put whiskey in and light it. The taste is quite satisfactory. [Roujiamo, Dumpling Soup] Roujiamo is a fat-lean version, much better than the beef jiamo in Huimin Street. The Dumpling Soup is tomato, a small bowl, just right for me…after all, I don’t like Dumpling Soup… [Golden Thread Oil Pagoda] The golden thread oil pagoda that can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys has become full of style in the hands of the chefs of five-star hotels, and 90[%] of the plate is edible! The first time I ate the golden thread oil pagoda, it didn’t taste very oily or greasy, it had a feel of thin braised noodles, dipped in sauce, it is still a popular delicacy. The swan next to it is also edible, with white lotus paste as the filling. It would be even better if it could be replaced with durian-3- [Huaqing Persimmon Cake] As a snack that can be found everywhere in Huimin Street, the most classic Huanggui flavor is chosen here, and the persimmons used in the production are also Lintong Huojing persimmons. [biang biang noodles] Common methods include garlic dipping, oil splashing, and whistles. In order to let everyone taste a variety of flavors, the chef adopted oil splashing noodles, with 3 whistles. The only drawback is that there is not much chili. If you want to taste more authentic, you can ask the waiter to ask the chef to add more chili when placing an order!

    I think, first of all, we need such high-class Shaanxi cuisine. If our delicacies only exist at street corners and chicken feather shops, then at best they are just Shaanxi snacks. If you have friends from other places coming, in addition to going to Qiaozikou and Sajinqiao, you always have to be refined. A 5-star hotel has many requirements for catering, such as ingredients and materials, which are under the most stringent requirements here. Cooking Shaanxi cuisine here is like asking a streetball king to play in the NBA, with many conditions and restrictions, so the greatness of Kobe and James will be revealed. It is really expensive. After adding taxes, the per capita price of 350 is still astonishing (of course, the food here is not as hard as we ordered), but the Shaanxi cuisine here is less cold and stubborn than some Northwest men, and more gentle. In addition, the decoration and style here are more cold and a little cold. If you want to feel its charm, you have to experience it slowly.

    The food of a five-star hotel is naturally excellent. This time we had Shaanxi cuisine and snacks, all of which were amazing, especially the stone-cooked fish and gourd chicken, which tasted quite good. Other snacks such as cold noodles and persimmon cakes were also authentic, and the oil-splashed noodles at the end were also down-to-earth. It is a very reliable restaurant, suitable for banquets and small gatherings.

    The Westin Xi'an is located opposite the South Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which is known as the largest musical fountain in Asia, and has convenient transportation nearby. The whole exterior is an antique building, full of artistic effects. It is an excellent choice for tourists. I chose to dine in the Chinese Elements Restaurant because it is more convenient. The Chinese elements in the restaurant are prominent, the wooden tables and chairs, and the chandeliers with a sense of style above my head made me deeply like this place. Since I came to Shaanxi, of course I have to eat local food. The chef recommended the dishes to us and they were deeply in everyone's heart. The price of more than 300 per person is not expensive in hotels of the same grade. The 15% service charge is worth the money, and the service staff are well-trained, polite and courteous. The fish cooked in stone is boneless fish. Put the stone in the casserole and heat it to 300 degrees. After taking it out, put the side dishes and fish fillets in turn, cover it with a lid, and we can hear the fish sizzling on the stone. After a while, we can smell the fragrance. Pour brandy on the lid and the edge of the pot. After igniting, you can see the blue flame, which is very spectacular. Friends are taking short videos. The fish made in this way not only maintains nutrition, but also is tender and juicy, and melts in the mouth. Chestnut Qinchuan beef ribs are made from Shaanxi's native Qinchuan beef and chestnuts. The beef is particularly tender and thick, and it is particularly enjoyable to eat. Beef contains 8 essential amino acids for the human body, and it is very easy to absorb, so there is a saying that eating a piece of beef is equivalent to a day's nutrition. And our Qinchuan beef is also a fine beef, not Wagyu, but Wagyu. Others such as cold skin and roujiamo have also received unanimous praise from colleagues. Friends who like it may wish to taste it on the spot.
