After a couple days in Xi’an eating their local delicacies, it got just a little too heavy for us and we’ve opted for something a little lighter and closer to home: Cantonese cuisine in Xi’an! WOW! Adventurous.
Here’s a short excerpt from the hotel’s website: “Authentic Cantonese cuisine ranging from traditional dim sum to freshly homemade [...]
So I was in Xi’an again recently and some locals told me about this new(ish) concept called “BT 翅” or “BT Wings”. I’m not sure if this only applies to Xi’an, or whether BT is present throughout China. Whatever it is, its marketing ploy worked because I was on the next cab to find out [...]
Not exactly food, but these photos definitely deserve some server and bandwidth space. This is perhaps, 1 of 2 reasons why I visited Xi’an in the first place!
What you’re seeing here (Pit 1, 2, 3 and 4 – although there’s nothing in Pit 4) took 720,000 people a lifetime to build. Dubbed the “8th Wonder [...]

I just came back from a “business trip” from Xi’an, China and while I was there, I asked my staff to surprise me with some local delicacies … I was brought to a 乾州食府 on 科技路.
