A
Xinjiang Fengwei Restaurant
Any reservations you might have about the Fengwei’s far-flung location will dissolve the minute you walk through the door. ‘Hey man, how you doing!’ Yup, you’ve just been teleported to Kashgar. The raucous atmosphere and Uighur vibe reaches a new level once the music and dancing get going later in the night. Try the dàpánjī (small/medium/large Y35/50/70) – a spicy stew of chicken, peppers and potatoes – as well as fresh yogurt, plov (mutton pilaf; Y15), lamb kebabs (four for Y12), and naan (flat bread), and wash it all down with some Xīnjiāng black beer (Y8).

B
Afanti Restaurant
Discerning fans of hearty Uighur cuisine can make the trek to the northern boonies for some of the city’s best Central Asian food in a friendly and authentic environment. The delicious dàpánjī (fried chicken, peppers and potatoes; Y80), gosh gorma (fried mutton; chǎo kǎoròu in Chinese) and cumin-rubbed lamb are all praiseworthy, and don’t forget to try the homemade suān nǎi (yogurt). The restaurant is in the basement of the Tianshan Hotel, next to the Silk Rd Hotel. Look for the building with the golden domes.

C
Uighur Restaurant
The only thing that will tear you away from the fine lamb kebabs, whole shoulder of lamb or laohu cai (spicy tomato, cucumber and onion salad) are the waiters dragging diners off for a quick whirl to accompanying Uighur folk tunes.
