Bāshǔ Yìnxiàng

Qinghai


Run by a young family, this welcoming Sichuan restaurant cooks up some excellent food. There's a glossy picture menu, sadly with no English. Try the lamb with cumin (孜然羊肉, zīrǎn yángròu; ¥52), the twice-cooked pork (回锅肉, huíguōròu; ¥32) or the Sichuan-style spare ribs (蜀香排骨, shǔxiāng páigǔ; ¥48).
