Labrang Temple is known as the pearl of Buddhist culture in China. The number of tourists here is increasing day by day, because here you can not only appreciate the Tibetan temple architecture, experience the rich religious charm, but also taste the unique Tibetan food in Labrang Temple. If you want to eat real Tibetan food, you have to stay in the canteen of Labrang Temple. The restaurant is located in the center of the temple. The restaurant is spacious and bright, divided into two parts, half for monks and half for tourists. You can taste delicious Tibetan food here. There is no menu for dining here. After you sit down, two monks in red robes will bring you milk tea and pour it into a bowl. It smells yellow and fragrant. After a sip, you will feel that the bottom of your throat is smooth and relaxed.
There is a special place to eat Tibetan food. The monk won't wait on you before the guests finish drinking. The monks didn't bring the rice covered with ginseng fruit (Potentilla anserina), sugar and ghee juice until the guests had a good meal. This is a famous special rice in Labuleng Temple-fern rice, which tastes sweeter than eight-treasure rice.
