Local people eat a lot of beef and lamb and prefer dishes with strong flavors. Vegetable choices are not as varied as in eastern China. You can have great noodles, Xinjiang crusty pancakes, and delicious roast dumplings. Xinjiang fried rice should not be missed either.
Xinjiang is also a paradise for fruit lovers. You can enjoy China’s best watermelons, honey melons, apples, pears, grapes, pomegranates, cherries, apricots…
