✨ Xinjiang Flavors in Pittsburgh?! 🇺🇸 The Meatiest Feast Ever…

I was intrigued by this place while planning—Uzbek cuisine? Sounds exotic, but the photos reminded me of Xinjiang food! So I went with curiosity 🤩 Here are some underrated but surprising picks👇 🍚 Uzbek Plov ($17) The rice arrived fragrant and steaming! Long-grain rice, perfectly stir-fried with sweet carrots and spices. Less oily than Xinjiang-style plov, but richer in meat flavor! The lamb falls apart tenderly—zero gaminess. Rating: 💯! 🥩 Lamb Shank with Fries ($18) A huge, tender lamb shank—crispy outside, juicy inside! Served with spiced tomato sauce and fries 🍟. Rich but not heavy. Enough for two! 🥟 Beef Samsa ($7) Crispy pastry pockets filled with warmly spiced beef and onions. Topped with sesame seeds—so aromatic! Dip in tomato sauce for extra goodness 😌. 🍜 Lagman Soup ($15) Hand-pulled noodles in a slightly spicy tomato-based broth with tender lamb shank! Hearty and warming—perfect for winter 🧡. 🌯 Chaykhana Shawarma ($14) Not your average shawarma! Juicy grilled beef with tomatoes, onions, and salad sauce, wrapped in a soft, flaky bread. Bursting with flavor yet refreshing! ✨ Verdict: A delicious blend of familiar and exotic—meat lovers’ paradise! ⚠️ Though open until 10pm, come early! Several dishes were sold out during dinner… I had to return the next day to try the lamb noodles and plov 😆. #FoodieAdventure #PittsburghEats #XinjiangFood #UzbekCuisine #Pitt #CMU #OhioLife #StudentEats #FoodReview #HiddenGems #MeatLovers 🥩🔥
