The best thing about Xinjiang is eating delicious food and seeing beautiful scenery. You can’t miss Caesar baked buns, which are delicious, crispy and fragrant on the outside. The environment is warm and comfortable, and the service attitude is good and enthusiastic.

#Local Food The area around the restaurant is bustling, with vendors selling all kinds of agricultural and sideline products on both sides. The surrounding residents are primarily ethnic minorities, and the atmosphere is rich with exotic customs and life. [Mint] Ambience: A typical Uyghur shop, medium-sized, with a food stall-like layout and a barbecue grill at the entrance. Authenticity is a must, but don't expect anything else. [Service Bell] Service: The lady boss who takes orders speaks good Mandarin, but her attitude... well, you can imagine it. The other staff's Mandarin is average, but basic communication is fine. [Rice] Taste: Overall, the dishes were above average, with no single dish being exceptional. The real standout, I think, is the value for money; it's definitely affordable. The steamed buns were a bit larger than others, and the meat was chunks of lamb. The main point is the genuine ingredients, but there was too little fat, making the meat a bit tough to chew, and the seasoning was bland. The skewers were very tender, and at just three yuan, they're definitely worth a try. The remaining bone soup and pilaf were probably from the stall next door (the guy selling the jar meat in Figure 2). The bone soup was 25 yuan per portion, with six full bones. While it wasn't perfectly mushy, at that price, it was a no-brainer. [facepalm] The pilaf was surprisingly delicious—fragrant yet not greasy. The rice was perfectly soft and firm. The lamb chops were generously sized and not overly seasoned, allowing for the uniquely tender flavor of the lamb. [Candy] Value for money: This is undeniable. My biggest strength here is the value for money. [Excellent] Overall, it lives up to its reputation, but there's still room for improvement in the details.
