"Lanzhou Cuisine Eat Eat Eat" [Sixth Eat] Eat lamb food in Lanzhou high-quality: hand grab, sheep neck and lamb chops to eat together

Eating lamb food in Lanzhou is a very easy thing, Xiaoxi Lake has a long street of nearly 200 meters lined with restaurants, one after another, the scene is hot, gathering atmosphere, which may be the most restaurants on a street in Lanzhou. Most of them are opened by Linxia people, and all the delicacies in the border of Hezhou are available here, and there is a big day to eat all over the Hezhou feast, without the feeling of iron shoes looking for peonies.

At the beginning of August last year, my daughter and son-in-law came to Lanzhou for a business trip, and time was tight, in addition to work, they ate Lanzhou's food every day to relieve homesickness. The first meal was the guobao beef noodles in front of the house, and in the evening, I went to eat the desert barbecue of Nanguan Night Market. Took the time to eat Jianwei fried sauce noodles, Ma Ye fried noodles, drank the net red mash milk tea, the third day at noon our family went to the Ma Zhonghua hand-grabbed mutton shop in Xiaoxi Lake, counted as a send-off family banquet, beyond the "welcome dumplings to send guest noodles" rules, is completely too tight time reason.

Ma Zhonghua is the first Linxia Dongxiang people to enter the Lanzhou catering market more than 20 years ago, Ma Zhonghua, the galloping horse of China. As soon as it entered Lanzhou, it caused a sensation, successively opened Binhe North Bank store, Wujiayuan store, Xiaoxi lake store customers Yingmen, every day a hot collapse of paste, Ma Zhonghua really hong luck, in Lanzhou hugged a golden doll, exclaimed Lanzhou people can eat too much, Lanzhou market is too big. Ma Zhonghua's shop is good, the core is good ingredients, sheep is eating grass, nibbling on medicinal herbs, drinking spring water to grow up in Dongxiang excellent long-tailed sheep, he put the local people's hand-caught lamb in the Lanzhou market to show, but also led the Dongxiang hometown to Lanzhou, lower Xining to open a store. The editor is a loyal fan of their store, all the shops have been patronized, all the friends and customers who come to Lanzhou in Beijing, Sichuan, Hubei, Guangdong must go to the Ma Zhonghua store to eat hand-grabbed meat, drink Eight Treasure Tea, and do the friendship of the landlord. When a friend of the Sichuan Design Institute left Lanzhou, he interrogated the method of hand-grabbing meat, bought spices and half a sheep to bring back to Chengdu to share with his family, and every time he came, he had to take it, only I knew no less than three times, and the speed of word of mouth was sometimes faster than the "publicity" of television and newspaper media.

Walking into the Ma Zhonghua Shop in Xiaoxi Lake, the scene was bold and luxuriously decorated, we were led to the four-seat seat on the second floor by the window facing the street, got on the bowl of the three cannons, ordered hand grabs, sheep neck, roast lamb chops and Dongxiang potato chips, lamb noodle slices and other signature dishes, all of which are the essence of the store, which are highly matched. The dishes started quickly, and before the bowl of tea had been drunk, the first hand-grabbed lamb rib meat was delivered. Fat and thin, with belt fat with meat, cut into strips, placed neatly, let everyone happy on the eyebrows, take gloves to grab and send to the mouth, fragrant, tender, no smell, chewy, smooth entrance and fragrant. This dish is made in a pot of water, a little ginger and shallots, pure original juice, and the subtlety lies in this.

Immediately after that, the second course of the lamb's neck also came up, cut into round pieces like a small round mirror. Because this is the most active part of the sheep, the meat is tight, more lean meat, both to tear, chew, but also to nibble, eat although indecent, can eat cool, eat in place.

The third dish is Dongxiang potato chips, the method is unique, first washed, steamed, cut into thick slices, served with red and green bell pepper slices, and then fried, the secret is the soft glutinous entrance, the mouth is full of potato aroma, pepper and mixed aroma. The son-in-law commented that he had ever eaten the most flavorful potato chips, and it was also the first time that he had omitted such a deliberate approach. The last dish of fried lamb chops also followed up, the fried golden rib meat, the outside is tender, full of oil, full of cumin, the spicy feeling of chili noodles, a bit of street skewers, but the fried is very layered, more than the original hand-grabbed meat, after fine processing, there is indeed another special flavor, but also very popular, the key is that the ingredients are good, good meat can make a good taste. My wife and daughter are optimistic about the lamb chops, the amount of one pound is basically enjoyed by both of them, I only tasted a small piece, I think it is OK and basically the same as before.

Eating meat, scraping bowls is linxia people, Dongxiang people's originality, these places are the Tang Dynasty tea horse ancient road must pass through the place, here the People of Li also developed the habit of drinking tea, mainly drinking fried green from Yunnan, and gradually added rock sugar, guiyuan, goji berries, chrysanthemums, red dates and other eight kinds of food mixed into eight treasure tea, in the lid bowl with rolling "peony water" brewing, while eating meat, while scraping bowls, became a scenery in Hezhou, highlighting the Linxia people's bold wind and love of life taste. We also ate meat while scraping the bowl to make the taste buds of the tongue harvest a sense of happiness, and all four of us were very comfortable, with a sense of satisfaction of "under the eastern fence of the chrysanthemum, leisurely seeing the South Mountain". A small bowl of lamb handmade noodles, the soup noodles are good, happy, comfortable, there is no more satisfying than the soul. This meal cost a total of more than 280 yuan, 70 yuan per capita, and the price is not high or low. The only drawback is that parking spaces are difficult to find, leaving some regrets, but the flaws are not hidden, there is no need to over-calculate, the status quo is so, only patience to wait for change.
