Uyghur classics including da pan ji, tugur, and hand-pulled noodles

Turpan Uyghur restaurant

Out of the way place but worth it!.
We had the lamb soup - oh my what a treat! I'd got there just for that.
Mains were lamb flat bread - it was nice but could do with more spice. The dumplings were amazing with the chilli oil.
We had warm milky tea to finish. We were also given a complimentary rice pudding - I don't normally like it - but wow what a treat!!. Definitely will go again & try more of the menu. 👌
Worth the wait for the food as it's hot & fresh.
Do go & try it. The young waiter was really knowledgeable & helpful in food choices.

It was my first time in a Uyghur restaurant, and it was very interesting. The soup was really good—I could tell the lamb was fresh and of high quality. The noodles were very spicy, but just as they were meant to be

Really enjoyed my visit to Turpan Uyghur Restaurant. The food felt like a mix between Central Asian and a bit of South Asian flavors. The lamb pilaf was amazing, very close to Kabuli Pulao, and the chicken pachaq was delicious too. For starters, I had the Uyghur kawap (lamb seekh), samsa (crispy beef pie), and a fresh Uyghur salad – all really good. They even served a complimentary rice pudding at the end, which was a nice, sweet touch. Would definitely come back!

This was our first time trying Uyghur food - such unique and exciting flavour profiles! We ordered Marjan Chop (homemade chopped noodles), Goshnan (bread with minced lamb), Chochure (minced lamb ravioli with soup), and lamb and chicken skewers. The spices in all the dishes were incredible - we especially loved the lamb skewers! The Chochure soup was outstanding as well - we spent ages trying to figure out what ingredients created such amazing flavours.

The Uyghur dishes were a delightful culinary experience.  The seasoning was expertly balanced, enhancing the natural flavors of the ingredients.  Each bite was a burst of deliciousness, leaving a pleasant warmth on the palate.  The textures were varied and satisfying, creating a truly memorable meal.  I highly recommend trying these expertly prepared dishes.

The tea offers a truly exceptional experience.  The delicate leaves unfurl beautifully in hot water, releasing a captivating aroma.  The flavor is nuanced and refreshing, a welcome change from ordinary bagged teas.  It's evident that this tea is crafted with care, from the careful selection of leaves to the elegant packaging.  This is a delightful tea to savor and share.
