When talking about Xi’an’s food, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind? The first thing the editor thinks of is Muslim Street, but many people say that there are not so many delicious food in Muslim Street, and they are all for tourists. Now the editor will tell you what you should eat in Xi'an Muslim Street.

Let’s talk about the first point first. Many guides say that Muslim Street is a gathering place for tourists. Locals don’t go there at all. They all go to the street next to it (Dapiyuan) Balabala. At first glance, it seems quite right. After all, this kind of famous Internet celebrity snack street is just to deceive foreign tourists. No more, no more.

Actually, this is really a misunderstanding. We locals really go there. But sometimes I feel that there are too many people and I’m too lazy to queue up, so I go to Dapiyuan to eat. Now it’s better. Ever since the saying “locals go to Dapiyuan if they don’t go to Huimin Street” spread, we locals really Black question mark face

Let’s draw an important point first:

Muslim Street is not a street, but an area.

The Muslim Street that tourists go to and the Muslim Street that locals go to are probably not the same place (really not) , will be beaten to death (no kidding)

A friend told me before that the city of Xi'an is very interesting. It is rare for a city to put the Muslim Street in the city center and turn it into a city. Image. In fact, Muslim Street is not just one street, but a collective name for many streets in the Muslim District, consisting of Beiyuanmen, Beiguangji Street, Xiyangshi, Dapiyuan and other streets.

"Muslim Street" is actually a conventional name, but this name is not accurate. We are more accustomed to calling this place Huifang because the restaurants here are run by Muslims and have strong halal characteristics, so it is not just for tourists. Come. But the main street is really crowded with tourists. The main street is about 400 meters long. It is a paradise for foodies.

It turns out that foreign envoys and merchants who come to Chang'an to do business live here. The place thrives, and most of the people on the street are descendants of these ancient immigrants. There is also a mosque on the street, and believers who return to the square can often be seen going to worship in the afternoon.

Anyone who is sure to say " Those who say "Muslim Street is not worth going to" must not have understood the essence of Huimin Street! As for the authentic Shaanxi Province's authentic cured meat buns, I recommend "Ziwu Road Zhangji" on Cuihua Road, but don't ask where it is on Huimin Street. There are steamed buns with bacon and meat sauce.

Two tour routes:

Route A--eat the signature delicacies in one sitting (the first choice for tourists)

Enter Beiyuanmen Street from behind the Drum Tower, then walk to Xiyang City, walk from Xiyang City to Beiguangji Street, turn right, and walk along Beiguangji Street to Dapiyuan

Suitable for: Friends who come to Xi'an for the first time. This route has many tourists and is also the main street. You can feel the atmosphere of Muslim Street and slowly stroll from the place full of tourists to Dapiyuan, a popular place for local diners. Experience

Line B---a must for advanced foodies

Enter from Beiguangji Street on West Street. Beiguangji Street and the entrance to Xiyang City are also delicious. It is a relatively concentrated place, just go straight along Beiguangji Street and turn right into Dapiyuan.

Suitable for: Those who are familiar with Muslim Street and want to go straight to the topic of eating and avoid tourists. Directly to the center

It is precisely because this street has a long history that there are so many time-honored restaurants. Each of them claims to be authentic, so which one should you eat? Must-eat list in Muslim Street
