Of course you can’t miss the Shuipen Lamb when you come to Xi’an! The Huzi Shuipen Lamb is served in a huge bowl. It not only contains hot soup, but also large chunks of lamb and vermicelli. The soup is rich and delicious, and every bite is heart-warming and stomach-warming. The classic way to eat it is to pair it with freshly baked flatbreads. Soak it in the soup to absorb the broth before eating it. It is fragrant and has rich layers of flavor. You can also directly put the mutton into the flatbread and eat it. It is solid and satisfying! In addition to water basin mutton, the store also has a variety of cold dishes, hot stir-fries, barbecues and local snacks to choose from, which are rich and satisfying. We recommend the grilled lamb skewers - the meat is tender and juicy, seasoned simply with salt without any extra seasonings, it retains its original flavor and becomes more fragrant the more you chew it! This meal is super filling! #liiiiiiiian #3月好去地方2025 #Xi'an #Huzishuipenmutton #food #Xi'anfood #shuipenmutton #huzishuipenmutton #Xi'anmusteat #muttonloveparadise #ancientcitytaste #whattoeattravel #muttonsoup #barbecuearoma #Xi'ansnackmap
