Laghman Express: Atlanta’s Uzbek Spot with Xinjiang Vibes 🥐
Atlanta hasn’t had a Xinjiang restaurant, so I tried this Uzbek place—given the strong cultural and historical ties between Uzbekistan and Xinjiang, it felt like the closest alternative! 🥐 Samsa (Meat Pies) – Flaky pastry with juicy beef and onion inside. Decent on its own, but dip it in the chili oil + vinegar on the table—it becomes amazing! 🍜 Lagman Noodles – Simple-looking stir-fried noodles that grow on you with each bite. A popular order for a reason! 🍢 Kebabs – The lamb skewers won over the beef—well-spiced and tender. Comes with soft steak fries (I prefer crispy, but still tasty). Overall, it’s a cozy, carb-lover’s spot with a surprisingly quirky interior (you’ll see!). Worth a visit if you’re curious about Central Asian flavors. 📍 Laghman Express 3070 Windward Plaza X1, Alpharetta, GA 30005 #ATL #AtlantaEats #UzbekFood #XinjiangVibes #CentralAsianCuisine #Alpharetta #HiddenGem #ComfortFood #FoodDiscovery
