San Diego's Xinjiang Lamb Skewers!
Finally tried authentic Xinjiang lamb skewers last night! đ„ This place is truly fascinatingâit completely redefined my idea of a barbecue restaurant. Itâs not just a dining spot; it feels like an immersive experience. The entire dining area is surrounded by massive projection screens displaying incredibly realistic natural landscapes: the rolling Tianshan Mountains, lush spruce forests, endless grasslands, and crystal-clear blue skies. Eating here feels like being transported to the vast, breathtaking landscapes of Xinjiang đ. The star of the menu is, of course, the Xinjiang lamb skewers! Each skewer is made with fresh lamb leg meat, perfectly marbled with just the right amount of fat, and grilled over charcoal until sizzling. The moment theyâre sprinkled with cumin and chili powder, the aroma hits you, instantly whetting your appetite đ. The meat is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a rich, savory flavor and no gamey taste. Even friends who usually avoid lamb couldnât resist having two skewers! Besides the classic lamb skewers, their nangkeng baked buns are a must-try! The outer layer is crispy, and the filling is fragrant minced lamb. When you take a hot bite, the juicy goodness bursts in your mouthâabsolutely satisfying âš. Pair it with a bowl of Xinjiang yogurtâthick, smooth, and perfect for cutting through the richness. The servers, dressed in traditional ethnic attire, were incredibly friendly. When they noticed our interest in the projections, they enthusiastically explained that the footage was shot on location, aiming to let diners experience Xinjiangâs natural beauty while enjoying the food. Restaurant: Xinjiang BBQ Address: 6931 Linda Vista Rd, San Diego This is definitely the new go-to spot for evening gatherings! With an average cost of $30â40 per person, you can enjoy a fantastic meal. I highly recommend going with a few friends, savoring skewers while admiring the "grassland scenery"âit instantly melts away the fatigue of the day đ«. #SanDiego #LifeInNorthAmerica #LambSkewers #TheSizzleOfBBQ
