Who can say no to meat skewers? There are many stalls selling meat skewers you can try out when in Xi'an. It's as cheap as 1 yuan for a skewer. And guess what?

Pomegranate stands actually pop in most parts of the city at a particular season. This season is autumn. You just have to take a look at these pomegranate stands, to understand autumn has finally arrived. This juice goes hand in hand with kebab. You can find it almost everywhere in the Muslim Quarter.

Well, the Xi'an meat burger can resemble the burgers you have tried and tasted before. But this one has quite an interesting and long history. The burger is made out of two key elements, the braised meat and the roujiamo which is the baked bread. The jiamo is usually baked in a traditional oven instead of an electric one. The meat is braised for hours at end, and then shredded by hand. The meat will then be filled into the jiamo and served. The crispy bread and the flavourful meat inside is all you need when in Xi'an.

They use twenty-three herbs and spices to make this dish by employing traditional cooking methods.

The locals here are crazy about their noodles. And one such dish is the Biangbiang noodles which are very popular in these parts.

This is another special dish of the locals that represent Xi'an in its essence. This is a bowl of shredded flatbreads that are soaked in a broth of mutton. This is the go-to comfort food here, and therefore, a must try.
