楼兰秘烤(迎宾路店)

One of the more popular barbecue restaurants in Urumqi. I went to another branch about half a year ago. This time I chose one closer to the airport. It still has a strong Uyghur style. I scanned the code to order, and with the help of the clerk, I quickly entered the ordering process. Soon after the dishes started, there was a lively folk dance performance, which was very exciting. The speed of serving the dishes was also quite fast. Barbecue, stir-fry, and staple food were served in an orderly manner. The taste was quite good, which not only satisfied the taste buds but also filled the stomach.

Every dish is delicious. The raw materials are fresh and they are very fragrant when grilled directly without adding any extra seasoning. They are delicious and the portions are large. See the pictures.

When I arrived at 6 o'clock, I didn't expect that there were already so many people. I ordered various barbecues. To sum up, the secret meat tasted good, but the lamb chops were not good for bones. It might be because there were too many people, the meat tendons were very fat, and the roasting time was not enough. However, as a check-in point in Urumqi, you can go and try it.

On the streets of Urumqi, the air is perpetually filled with the aroma of barbecue. This city, farthest from the ocean, possesses the most vibrant atmosphere of life. Standing beneath the arches of the Xinjiang International Grand Bazaar, one can almost hear the echo of millennia-old camel bells echoing along the Silk Road—once a melting pot where Eastern and Western civilizations met, it remains a living museum of Central Asian charm. 🔥 Loulan Secret BBQ: The Ancient Western Region Secrets Embedded in Flames Pushing open the carved wooden door of the Chouma No. 1 Cultural and Creative Park, time suddenly slows down at "Loulan Secret BBQ." Lamb legs skewered on red willow branches sizzle in the naan oven, instantly understanding why Zhang Qian, during his diplomatic mission to the Western Regions, specifically included naan-baking techniques in his memorials. Owner Ali roasts his rack of pork using his ancestral techniques, resulting in a crispy exterior like the bark of Taklamakan poplar trees and a tender interior like melted snow from the Kunlun Mountains. With a bowl of yogurt sprinkled with raisins, one imagines the ancient Loulan caravans resting here. (Address: Chouma No. 1 Cultural and Creative Park, No. 625 Yingbin Road) 🕌 Grand Bazaar: A Colorful Eurasian Market The Xinjiang International Grand Bazaar, located at No. 510 Jiefang South Road, is the largest bazaar in the world. The morning sun streams through the dome of the mosque, illuminating the rainbow-like folds of the Idres silk. In the musical instrument shop, the strings of the rewap still linger with the lingering sound of the Twelve Muqams; at the dried fruit stall, piles of figs and almonds evoke the outline of the Pamir Plateau. Most captivating is the handmade carpet section on the second floor, where each warp and weft woven by elderly Uyghurs is a miniature map of the Silk Road. (Open 24/7, year-round) 🍈 Taste Travel Guide: 1️⃣ Must-try "Nan Bao Rou" (roasted lamb wrapped in naan)—break open a freshly baked pi ya zi naan and wrap it around piping hot roast lamb. This portable military ration was invented by soldiers defending the border during the Han Dynasty. 2️⃣ For handmade ice cream, don't use a spoon; roll it on a wooden stick like the locals. The cool, sweet, and sticky texture is reminiscent of the Tianshan snow lotus. 3️⃣ At noon, head to the rooftop restaurant of the Grand Bazaar and order fried pork noodles with kava. Through the stained glass windows, you can overlook the entire old city. As dusk paints Bogda Peak red, the bronzeware shops in the bazaar begin to clink. Then buy a bag of rose-scented marzipan and stroll through the alleys paved with Islamic geometric tiles. You'll suddenly understand: The magic of Urumqi lies in its food, unlocking the secrets of a 4,000-year-old civilization. #XinjiangFood #SilkRoad #ExoticCity #UrumqiMust-Check-In #FoodieTour
