To use a very clichéd saying, everyone who has tasted Lhasa’s local specialties says it is good. Because Lhasa is a very sacred tourist destination, many people come here just to play and watch, and few people will remember it.

There are also very delicious specialties. The editor below will recommend a few specialties and shops for you to try. What are the specialties of Lhasa: sweet tea, yogurt, butter tea, Tibetan noodles, highland barley wine, Zan tsampa

Cake, jelly, potato buns, yak jerky.

Recommended shops: Guangming Port Qiongtian Tea House, Canggu Temple Sweet Tea House, Guangming Store Restaurant, Cave Sweet Tea House, Nima Tea House.

1. Sweet tea. Sweet tea tastes good. The teahouse is very unique. When you enter, you just need to get a cup, put some change on the table, and chat by yourself. A waiter will come over to add sweet tea, collect the money and give change.

When the glass is empty, the waiters roaming the lobby will quickly rush over to refill it.

2. Yogurt Yogurt Shop appears in every guide. It has a long history and pure taste. The walls are full of messages and photos, and it has a strong atmosphere of literary youth.

Pure yak yogurt is more sour, and ice cream yogurt is more in line with our taste.

There is sugar seasoning on the table. Adding sugar seasoning will make it more delicious.

My favorite is the yogurt smoothie, it’s awesome! 3. Butter tea Butter tea is the main drink of Tibetans.

If it is acceptable, it is best to drink butter tea as much as possible in Tibet, because it is the best nutritional and calorie supplement, is easy to digest, can withstand hunger and quench thirst, and can even treat colds and discomforts caused by first arriving at the plateau.

Hospitable Tibetans often use precious butter tea to entertain distinguished guests. As a guest, it is best not to politely decline, otherwise it will leave a very rude impression on the host.

4. Tibetan noodles Tibetan noodles are slightly similar to Northwest ramen, but the style is completely different.

The Tibetan noodles should be pressed out and cooked in advance, then dried, and then put into the boiling beef soup when eating.

The biggest enjoyment of eating Tibetan noodles is drinking the soup. The clear and light broth, with a small amount of salt and chopped green onion, becomes a rare bowl of delicious food.

It's hot and fragrant in the mouth, and it's endlessly memorable.

5. Highland barley wine Highland barley wine is brewed from highland barley. It tastes sweet and sour and has a very low alcohol content, similar to beer.

This highland barley wine, popular among Tibetan men, women and children, is a must-have drink during the New Year and festivals.

When drinking highland barley wine, you should pay attention to "three sips and one cup", that is, take a sip first, fill it up, take another sip, fill it up again, take a third sip, fill it up and drink it again.

Generally at banquets, the host and hostess will sing drinking songs and toast.

The price in the supermarket is 5-6 yuan/bottle.

6. Tsampa Tsampa is a unique staple food of the Tibetan people. It is made by frying highland barley or peas and then grinding them into flour. It is mixed with butter tea and kneaded into a ball by hand. It can also be mixed with salt tea, yogurt or highland barley wine.

7. The special feature of Tibetan jelly is the chili pepper.

Tibetan chili is different from oil chili in that it is mainly soaked in water, so it is very spicy and refreshing.

Tibetan jelly also comes with potato chunks.

They are usually sold in the alleys of Barkhor Street for 1 yuan a bowl.

8. Potato buns Lhasa potatoes are of better quality, very pink and sweet.

Potato buns are made with minced beef wrapped in mashed potatoes, slightly fried on the outside, and have a soft texture.

You can also eat it with tomato sauce.

9. Dried yak meat Yak lives all year round in the snowy mountain plateau at an altitude of more than 3,500 meters. Therefore, yak meat is considered a natural, pollution-free and pollution-free food.

Yak jerky has many flavors and is delicious, making it a good souvenir.
