Although the name seems youthful, Miaomiao Beijing Shabu Shabu Fang is one of the few shabu restaurants in Xi'an that has been in operation for more than 5 years, and it is an old experience among the stores on the list.
The restaurant uses a traditional charcoal pot in old Beijing, which is rare in today's Xi'an. Miao Miao provides two types of pot bases, namely the traditional clear soup pot and the spicy pot base, and diners in need can also form a mandarin duck pot or a separate small pot for each person. It is worth mentioning that the bottom of Miaomiao's clear soup pot is tap water, but the price reaches 25 yuan. Compared with the bottom of the mineral water clear soup pot with the same price in the industry, Miaomiao's advantages are not obvious.
The restaurant's signature dish is hand-cut mutton, which has less fat, and the thick cut makes the chewy feeling very full, and the milk flavor is rich. In contrast, the performance of the higher-priced Yanchitan mutton was disappointing, the color of the meat slices was dull, the smell was particularly obvious, and the umami of the sheep was almost non-existent, which did not meet the great reputation of Yanchitan sheep. Diners who pursue cost-effective can try the Ximeng lamb priced at 48 yuan, because the dishes flow quickly, the mutton is excellent in freshness, it is cooked for a long time, and it is sweet and sweet. The concentration of the restaurant's secret sesame paste is sufficient, but the aroma is not prominent, and sometimes it even appears sour, which needs to be improved.
Compared with the more mediocre shabu-shabu performance, Miaomiao's other dishes can sometimes give unexpected surprises. Hand-made shrimp is a very popular dish, and the Q-bomb shrimp meat, full of "sea" flavor, and delicate taste are worthy of praise. The sesame baked cake has a strong fragrance, is soft and slightly sweet, and is worth a try.
There are no seats on the first floor of Miao Miao Beijing Shabu Shabu, and diners need to go to the second floor to eat. The hall and box environment are similar to ordinary hot pot restaurants, and there are no special features. At meal time, the number of waiters in the store is obviously insufficient, but fortunately, the service attitude is friendly.
