Lonely Planet review

There's a Chinese Muslim restaurant on almost every street in Běijīng, but the Crescent Moon, tucked away down a hútòng , is the real deal, owned and staffed by Uighurs, and possibly the best Xīnjīang joint in town. The yáng'ròu chuàn (lamb skewers) are meaty and succulent, or try the dàpānjī , a dish of chicken, potato, peppers and vegetables served over thick, pasta-like noodles. Towards the end of the night, the staff often dance Xīnjīang style.
