Liuwu Mutton Restaurant

Xuzhou Liuwu Mutton Restaurant is just across from Yunlong Mountain and near the main campus of Xuzhou Normal University. I went there for the first time with my friends. It was very good. The mutton was authentic and the soup was very light. The hanging oven sesame cakes were very delicious in the mutton soup! The consumption is not high, it is quite moderate!

A real fly restaurant, but there are too many people. The lamb soup tastes pure at 10 yuan, and it is served with a cake (I forgot the name of the cake, it is a small stall next to it and needs to be purchased separately). In two simple words, it is delicious.

The mutton soup tastes great, the stir-fried dishes taste good too, the business is very good and there are many people, Xuzhou people still love mutton very much
