I highly recommend milk tea and slow-roasted lamb shanks, super delicious
Inner Mongolian cuisine is a pleasant surprise. I like the rich flavor. Let's eat meat.
Kuanxiangzi 1️⃣ Jinyan Fried Cake ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The bean filling had a rose scent, and the date filling was also very sweet. Freshly fried, hot, and super delicious. 2️⃣ Brown Sugar Baked Cake ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I really liked it, but unfortunately it can't be stored, so I only bought one and couldn't take it home. The sweetness was just right, and it was very fragrant. 3️⃣ Honey Hemp Leaf ⭐⭐⭐ It was delicious at first, but it got sweeter and sweeter, and I couldn't handle it. It was just too oily and sweet. 4️⃣ Milk Skin Mooncake ⭐⭐⭐ It was also a little too sweet, and the milk flavor wasn't as strong as I'd expected. 5️⃣ Various Packaged Dairy Products ⭐⭐ It was incredibly sweet, so I threw it away halfway through. 6️⃣ Baked Milk Skin ⭐⭐⭐ The milk skin was dry after baking. It doesn't have much of a milky flavor, so I personally don't think it's very tasty. 7️⃣ Grilled Lamb Kebabs ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not bad, the lamb isn't smelly and is very fragrant. 8️⃣ Milk Skin Yogurt ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This yogurt is absolutely delicious. The texture is like tofu, and the milk skin on top is also very fragrant, fragrant and rich. It's a little more sour than regular yogurt, but I like sour things. 9️⃣ Milk Tofu Pancakes ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not bad, stretchable when hot. 🔟 Thin Fruit Soup ⭐⭐⭐ It tastes a bit like sour plum soup, with persimmon flesh. It's okay. If you haven't tried it, you should try it. ***Old Suiyuan Shaomai*** 1️⃣ Lamb and Scallion Shaomai ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One Shaomai and A steamed bun is just as good. The lamb is not smelly and very fragrant and delicious. It's delicious whether steamed or fried. 2️⃣ Yellow Rice Jelly ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I absolutely love this jelly, sweet and sticky. Highly recommended. ***Asru Mongolian Cuisine*** 1️⃣ Cheese Pancake ⭐⭐⭐ It's okay. The cheese filling is a bit dry and doesn't string. 2️⃣ Fried Rice with Butter ⭐⭐⭐ When I first added the fried rice, it was too hard. After soaking it for a while, it became okay. ***Zecheng Boiled Lamb*** 1️⃣ Boiled Lamb ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The lamb and lamb chops were both fresh, not smelly, and very fragrant. The lamb was chewy and mostly lean. The lamb chops were more tender. A few pieces were tough to chew, with some fat, but the fat was quite fragrant. 2️⃣ Milk Skin Ice Cream ⭐⭐⭐ It was okay when it was cold, but a bit too sweet once it melted. 3️⃣ Iced Milk Tea ⭐⭐⭐ This wasn't very sweet, a light milk tea. It was okay, but it tasted a bit like watered-down Assam. ***Yao Xinji Shaomai*** 1️⃣ Iced Porridge ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The yellow rice underneath was delicious with the soup, but it was also okay on its own. 2️⃣ Salty Milk Tea ⭐⭐⭐ It tasted like milk tea with a little salt, a bit strange, but drinkable. I still prefer sweet milk tea. 3️⃣ Butter Roasted Potatoes ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It was quite fragrant, with a nice, chewy exterior and a slightly crispy interior. #HohhotTravelGuide #WhereToGoSummer
I finally got to experience all the delicious Hohhot food I'd been craving this summer! Bameng stew, hand-pulled pork, mutton and wheat, spicy baked rice cakes, brown sugar baked rice cakes, cheese cakes, milk tofu cakes, milk yogurt, milk-chewed fried rice, fried fruit leather, Inner Mongolian spicy hot pot, meat-filled fried cakes, and thin fruit soup... I tried everything I'd heard of and even tried, and I wished my stomach could expand to 512g! 16 Hohhot Delicious Restaurants, There's Something for You 🤌 ✨✨Mongolian Cuisine p2-p5 1️⃣ Bayin Tumote Mongolian Cuisine | Fresh Pork Ribs and Bean Stew 2️⃣ Bayin Haoriwa Restaurant | Hand-Pulled Pork, Cold Oat Noodles, Yogurt Pancakes, Milk Tea, Yogurt 3️⃣ Asiru Mongolian Cuisine | Pastoral Beef, Beef Buns, Yogurt Pancakes, Soft Fruit, Milk Tea with Blue Flag Milk Skin 4️⃣ Gerile Amma Mongolian Kitchen | Milk-Chewing Stir-fried Rice, Sweet Cheese Pancakes, Lamb and Scallion Pancakes I highly recommend the Bameng stew: the mashed potatoes wrapped around the pork ribs and beans are perfect on their own or with rice. The abundance of crispy scallions is a real treat! Bayin Haoriwa, recommended by locals, isn't close to many attractions, but the food, environment, and service are all top-notch, especially the hand-pulled pork and yogurt pancakes. There's also a singing and dancing performance in the evening, making it worth a special trip. The most famous restaurant, Gerile Amma, is mediocre and not recommended. ✨✨Shaomai·Malatang·Spicy Shaomai (p6-p10) 5️⃣ Suihe Shaomai | Pan-fried Shaomai 6️⃣ Yuanxiyuan Shaomai | Steamed Shaomai 7️⃣ Suyuan Malatang | Malatang with beef tendon noodles and Cantonese sausage 8️⃣ Xiaobaifang Spicy Shaomai | Spicy Shaomai with tiger skin eggs 9️⃣ Yueqing Malatang | Beef tendon noodles Both Shaomai restaurants are good, but I recommend Suihe Shaomai. The lamb flavor is less overpowering, and the fried Shaomai are more fragrant and appealing to me than the steamed ones. Suyuan Malatang is the best, with a medium spiciness that's just right. The other two are spicier, so just order mild. - ✨✨Snacks p11-17 🔟 Yang Lao Da Baked Mooncakes | Brown Sugar Triangles, Brown Sugar Baked Buns, Ox Tongue Baked Buns, Salty Crispy Baked Buns 1️⃣1️⃣ Qingheyuan | Cheese and Milk Tofu Pancakes 1️⃣2️⃣ Jin Xiaoyan Fried Cakes | Date, Bean Paste, and Meat Fried Cakes 1️⃣3️⃣ Xiaoyan Fried Skewers | Milk Skin, Fruit Danpi, and Tofu Triangles 1️⃣4️⃣ Chengyu Cheese Beef Jerky | Milk Skin Yogurt, Red Date and Inner Mongolian Cheese 1️⃣5️⃣ Guowei Tao | Rare Fruit Soup 1️⃣6️⃣ Ma Dajie Rare Fruit Soup | Rare Fruit Soup The baked buns are a must-try. I especially love the sesame oil flavor; it's so easy to walk! I especially recommend the brown sugar triangles; the crust is crispy, the filling is dense, and it's incredibly delicious! For the milk tofu pancakes at Kuanxiang, don't go to the Xingyue line; Qingheyuan is just as delicious, and they're easily stretched to 2 meters. You can't go wrong with the fruit soup and milk yogurt. I especially recommend Ma Dajie for the fruit soup. Not only is it richer in dried fruit and has a better texture, but it's also packed with dried persimmons, leaving you with a delicious persimmon flavor. Highly recommended! #HohhotNearbyTravel #WhereToGoSummer
