Xilai is the Chinese transliteration of the founder's birthplace "seorae", and thin meat refers to its signature dish, heart meat, which is rare due to its small production. Founded in 2008 in Seoul, South Korea, Shelai Thin Meat has grown from a popular brand in South Korea to an international brand with hundreds of stores around the world. The orthodox Korean background, as well as the appearance in "Descendants of the Sun", make Xilai Rare Meat quite popular among the younger group.

Heart-protecting meat refers to the meat between the diaphragm in front of the pig's chest, also known as the diaphragm, an adult pig can only produce 250g to 300g of heart-protecting meat, which is up and down for the fascia in the structure of the fine meat to create a unique taste, elastic and crisp, more fine meat but not dry firewood. There are many Korean restaurants that offer heart-protecting meat, but Shilai Thin Meat is one of the best restaurants with a variety of flavors. There are five flavors of Xilai Thin Meat's heart-protecting meat, which can be ordered a la carte or a five-flavor combination. The original flavor is sweet, and the meat aroma is strong even if it is eaten without dipping sauce, while the pickled heart meat has a rich flavor, spicy and refreshing, garlic flavor, soybean flavor sweetness, and the secret version is salty and sweet. The heart meat is the most delicious when grilled until slightly charred, fragrant and juicy, crispy and elastic with a delicate taste. In addition, compared with pork belly, the heart meat is mellow but less oily and not greasy, which is an excellent choice for diners who love the aroma of pork but are not good at fat.

In addition to heart-protecting meat, the large intestine is also a popular product in pork, vinegar and alkaline water have been washed away to remove the fishy smell, after aging, the skin is slightly yellow and crispy, the inside is oily and smooth, and the taste is elastic. The overall level of the beef category is average, the beef ribs are acceptable, the oil melts after heating, and the strength is juicy. The main dish is not recommended, and the main Memories lunch box is an old-fashioned tin box as a selling point, and you need to shake it vigorously to mix the ingredients. The lunch box has a small portion, the taste is average, the condiments are simple, the rice is sticky and wet, and the fish larvae are fishy. The ingredients in the seafood soup are not very fresh and the taste is salty.

In terms of equipment, only the Wangzuo store of Xilai Thin Meat continues to use charcoal, and the other 6 branches have switched to electric grilling due to their location in a shopping mall. The hardware standard of the restaurant is unified, and each table is equipped with a smoke exhaust hall, so that diners are basically not disturbed by oil smoke. The clerk changes the baking tray diligently, so there is no need for diners to urge. In addition, Xilai Thin Meat is equipped with various types of baking trays for different meats, which is more professional. However, in terms of oven design, the Xi'an store is different from the stores in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hangzhou and other places, that is, there is no thermal grid, and there is no groove to bake egg custard and cheese corn kernels. In fact, great Korean restaurants are usually equipped with several types of baking trays, such as flat baking trays, hollow baking trays, and grilling nets, to match the meat with different thinnesses to achieve the best grilling effect. For example, thin-cut beef belly is suitable for flat baking trays, the temperature is slightly lower, and it is not easy to burn, while thick-cut steak is best matched with grilling nets, the temperature is high, and it is easy to bake. Most Korean barbecue restaurants in Xi'an do not have thermal insulation design and multiple types of grilling trays, and even the top Jiutian family has only one type of grilling tray, and there is no insulation facility. In general, compared with Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou and other regions, Xi'an has a lower degree of professionalism in Korean cuisine.

The Xilai Thin Meat is mainly decorated with logs, which is not exquisite, but it is also clean and fresh. The biggest problem is that the dining table is small, the space is cramped, and the dining comfort is not high. In terms of service, the shortage of manpower during peak periods is a consistent problem for Xilai Rare Meat, and stores with large customer flow such as the Cityport store and the high-tech Wangza store are particularly prominent. The waiters are very busy, and some customers have to grill the meat by themselves, which is easy to affect the finished product due to improper control of the heat and grilling time. For dishes that are slightly more difficult to grill, such as heart meat and large intestines, it is recommended that diners consult the barbecue skills of the staff in advance.
