游侠半仙After three days of visiting Qinghai Lake, Chaka Salt Lake and Ta'er Temple, we checked into the Mercure Yile Hotel and came to this restaurant founded in 1990. The operation is flexible. We ordered two skewers of roasted lamb, lamb blood sausage and beef tripe, and a small piece of hand-pulled lamb. The above dishes tasted very good. Good quality and low price. We also ordered Xunhua Ga noodles to see what ingredients they are made of. There were many people dining, and the tables were full. Other diners were invited to the second floor.

No.3 of Local Restaurants in Xining

ScorpioFI went there on the day I arrived in Xining. Fortunately, there were few people after 8 o'clock so I didn't have to wait. I ordered hand-pulled lamb. Even with a simple dip in chili powder, it didn't taste muttony. I have to say that the lamb in Qinghai is really good. Fortunately, I can order half a portion, otherwise I really can't finish it by myself. The milk and egg fermented glutinous rice is quite delicious. It tastes different from what I thought it tasted like. It's just a big bowl that I had to take away. In comparison, the shepherd's yogurt is quite ordinary and too sweet. The salty milk tea is not as delicious as I thought. I thought it would be the same as Mongolian milk tea, but it turned out not to be. It is just salty milk tea as the name suggests. Maybe because one person can't try too many dishes, the taste is okay, but it's not amazing.

WangyuanxiVery good, it's the kind of old restaurant you want to eat at. I chose this place for my first meal in Xining. I'm very satisfied. There are no fancy gimmicks or discounts. It's a real meal and a real life. It's great. I ordered a little too much.

Adventures of LengDelu's yogurt has several kinds. The dine-in ones are served in porcelain bowls. It is very delicious to eat directly. Then there are plastic bottles and plastic bowls. There are also large gift boxes that can be taken away as gifts. The yogurt has moderate acidity and a mellow aroma. It is absolutely different from the yogurt on the market. Sweet mash is also a specialty snack in Qinghai. It is made with highland barley and has regional characteristics. In terms of taste, it has a little wine aroma. It is sweet overall and the rice inside can also be eaten.

5. 西宁伊尔顿国际饭店·中餐厅

BHD7Northwest China Cuisine

陌染MMThis is a restaurant in a four-star foreign-related hotel in the center of Xining. We came here for a tour and our room included breakfast, so we came down to have breakfast early in the morning with great enthusiasm. The restaurant is very small. Although the decoration is quite exquisite, the seats are all European-style palace chairs, and there are several small private rooms. There is no dining hall. The restaurant itself is not big, narrow, and the space is not easy to use. Then we can't find an empty seat at all. Alas, you need to wait for a seat to have breakfast, and you need a table to be crowded with many people. There are not many varieties of food, including noodles cooked on the spot, fried eggs, salads, fruits, fried noodles, bread and some simple dishes. Don't expect too much.

sunvzmmLamb brain, slightly spicy, slightly sour, delicious; lamb neck very tender; dog pee, not a nice name, crispy and tender; okra fried with walnuts, the okra was not fresh, I told the store and immediately replaced it with a fresh one. The dishes were enough, four dishes, the three of us from the south couldn't finish them, and most of the lamb neck was packed. Recommended!

8. E. Area Lao Bai Tuo Tui Gu Tea Meal

No.14 of Local Restaurants in Xining

阳光马步鱼A very famous restaurant in Xining, but it was gradually occupied by tourists during the peak tourist season, and the taste was slightly reduced, but it was still good. [Taste of dishes] Signature boneless yak beef: a large piece of yak beef with bones is served, and you can slowly shave the meat on it with a knife. After eating, weigh the remaining bones, subtract the amount of meat you have eaten, and then calculate the money. It is very delicious. It was better when there were fewer tourists before, and it is still good now. I hope the quality will not be reduced with the increase in the number of tourists. Four and a half stars. Stir-fried beef tendon: The beef tendon is relatively tender, and the pepper is added but not very spicy, three and a half stars. Stir-fried broccoli: Green vegetables and fruits are more valuable in the northwest, and the taste and presentation are not bad, three and a half stars. [Environment and service] The store is full of private booths. There are seats from two to more than ten people, and the decoration has ethnic characteristics. The attitude of the service staff is acceptable. Recommended store to try when you come to Xining.

懒懒的猪猪侠Beautiful environment, good location, convenient transportation, comfortable and sanitary rooms, enthusiastic service staff, willing to provide various help, rich dinner. The facilities are very user-friendly, the network signal is good, and the scenery outside the window is good. The design of the ornaments is also very distinctive. The dinner room has a good environment, good facilities, a wide variety of dishes, and is relatively rich. My favorite dishes are: spicy chicken and the delivered kebabs, souchef Bao Yutian, the service is very enthusiastic, considerate and patient to explain each dish, and understand the cooking methods of the dishes, which is great. Good value for money, I will try it next time!
