  • Having recently become interested in the Uyghur culture and cuisine after having looked up several media sources on-line, I was very keen to come out this restaurant after hearing it mentioned as a dinner with friends. Given its location I knew I would have to set a side a good day to commute here if I wanted to reward my quest with a taste of the intriguing looking cuisine that was significant of to distinct Central Asian nation. But my quest to go there was commenced sooner that I had planned when yesterday a dining companion keenly wanted to take a look when I mentioned it to him. And so we did just that. We were both off to a funny start when we unexpectedly discovered that the restaurant caters to both Mandarin speaking and non-Mandarin speaking customers when we were given menus with Chinese scripts in them. We both had an amusing moment when trying to figure out what each dish was while also pretending to be academic linguists in the making by trying to decipher the Chinese description. Pretend-time was cut short when I decided to ask the waiter if English menus were available, he had a brief moment of embarrassment while going to get the respective menus. Most of the items are laid out across on a one page fold-out menu each accompanied with a picture depicting the described dish. There are a few noodle dishes that looked similar to one another with the beds of noodles making the distinguishing the difference, a couple of soups and stews and the more familiar kebabs with the turkic style thicker naans. So the two of us decided on getting the lamb kebab combo which comes with naan and an iceberg lettuce salad and also a langman noodle plate. The kebabs came out first and having not had lamb in a while taste of the bite size pieces were dainty for me and even more so when wrapped in a piece of the naan bread. I hope that the owners start serving an Uyghur style salad at some point, it would make all the difference compared to the ice-berg salads that are served at other more distinct places. But I definitely loved the noodles and what made it really good was the spiced-up gravy from the lamb curry that it was cooked in. I kept alternating between the noodles and spoonfuls of the hearty liquid. The flavor in the gravy reminded me of similar flavors found in some of the curry based noodle dishes in my country so it was really enjoyable to be able to taste something familiar from the langman dish. And if naan bread was also available as a side order I would have asked for one to soak up some of that gravy, yes delicious. Alot of the reviewers have mentioned the Dapanji so that what I'll have to try next time and maybe some of the other noodle dishes.
