Zhongfa Yuan is the largest high-end restaurant of Xinjiang cuisine in Shenzhen, with three restaurants in the city center, and the earliest Luohu Chunfeng store has been in business for more than 20 years, and many national dignitaries have visited. Zhongfayuan once won the title of "Top Ten Restaurants" in the Shenzhen God of Food Competition, and although the taste of the new store has decreased slightly, it has basically remained at a high level.
Zhongfa Yuan has a rich range of dishes, integrating Qinghai, Xinjiang and other halal ethnic specialties, northwest pastries, classic Cantonese cuisine and hot pot. There are almost no failures in large and small dishes, especially in the handling of beef and mutton. The main ingredients of yak and mutton come from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which is comparable to the high-quality meat of Inner Mongolia.
If you have a small gathering of several people, roasted lamb shank and sauced lamb stick bones are the preferred meat dishes. The lamb itself is very tender, and the leg of lamb is sandwiched with rich collagen, which is especially tender and delicious. There is not much meat in the sauce lamb stick bones, and it is a great pleasure to suck the bone marrow of the stick bones, but the mutton stick bones in Jingtian store are spicy and a little taste-grabbing. If the budget is sufficient, you might as well try Qilian Mountain Yellow Mushroom Fried Yak Beef, Qilian Yellow Mushroom is known as one of the "Ten Treasures" in Qinghai, the wholesale price is about 400 yuan per catty, so the amount of nearly 200 yuan a dish is also very small, mushrooms with yak meat, the heat is well controlled, and the fried taste is delicious. Lamb skewers are naturally not a problem, and they are a must-order delicacy on the table. If you can't enjoy it, you can also buy raw yak meat and lamb chops at home from the freezer in the store.
If there are more than 10 people, consider roasting whole lamb. About 12 catties of lamb, forked and roasted, the skin is golden in color, and the taste is excellent. However, the finished product will be cut off the sheep's head, not as festive as the general Xinjiang restaurant, 1658 yuan a piece, the price is fair, it is best to book a day in advance.
Zhongfa is not as ethnic as the Tarim River in New Guangdong, and it looks elegant. Especially the two branches of Jingtian and Nanyou, which opened later, have white tablecloths and white porcelain, which are obviously taking the route of mid-to-high-end restaurants. The waiter's attitude is as loose as Xinjiang restaurants, but fortunately, the service process is stricter, for example, after the tea comes up, a separate cup will be provided to hold the tea drain, so as to avoid the taste of Pu'er tea after a long time, add water, withdraw the plate in time, and the overall experience is good.
The new store has many large and small private rooms, and the large private rooms can accommodate about 20 people, and the sofas and coffee tables are readily available, which is low-key and elegant, which is an ideal choice for banquets. Due to the popularity, it is best to book three days in advance on holidays, and the service fee standard for large and small private rooms is different.
The counter in the hall sells Qinghai nectar, Xinjiang raisins, goat milk powder and other specialties, which can be packed and taken away.
