Across the road from Hefang Street, there is the famous Wuliu Fangting District. The quiet alleys look like residential areas, but there are plenty of restaurants that are atmospheric, inexpensive, and flickering at night for locals. CUMIN is in the corner of this block, the site is relatively open, and the window is full of greenery, which is very comfortable.
Although it is called "Creative Cuisine", in fact, the dishes are all common Xinjiang dishes, and there is nothing brilliant about them, just to cater to the consumer needs of this area, providing a lot of grilled food other than mutton and various drinks. In addition, it is expected that in mid-to-late 2018, the restaurant will transform the first basement floor into a party venue, with a simple bar, KTV, board games and other entertainment equipment, which is very suitable for a large group of people to play crazy.
In terms of dishes, the taste is more obvious. Lamb skewers, lamb chops and other grilled things are good, pepper sesame chicken is a dish that has been improved more successfully, the broken black fungus, beans, cold skin and onions, etc. and shredded chicken cold dress, the oil is very fragrant, full of numbness, and there is a hint of spicy, without losing the flavor of Xinjiang traditional pepper sesame chicken. Although too many side dishes are suspected of making up the portions, it does not seem to prevent people from loving it, and the order rate is super high.
Stir-fried fried noodles, stir-fried naan, fried noodles with ding and spinach gluten all maintain traditional Xinjiang practices and are done okay. However, dishes with soup and water are always disappointing, such as mutton soup, fried rice noodles, and large plates of chicken, either the heat is not well controlled, or the seasoning is not proper, which shows that the kitchen is seriously biased and the craftsmanship is unbalanced. It is worth noting that the fried rice noodles are not made of soft and glutinous rice noodles in Xinjiang, but more like the udon noodles of Q bombs.
The environment and service are good, the dining area is large, and the table can accommodate 2 to 10 people, without private rooms. In general, the dishes here are not complete, the dishes are uneven, and it is not a serious place to entertain, suitable for drinking and chatting and eating casually. The price of CUMIN is not cheap, and the group purchase package is more affordable, so you can pay attention if you need it.
