"Created in emulation of a diner, this restaurant surprised the East Village last year with Xinjiang food from China’s far northwest. Expect lots of lamb, as fatty kebabs and rice pilaf, and the giant bulging dumplings the menu describes as “shumai,” plus the legendary big tray of chicken. For a pleasant vegetable experience, don’t miss the steamed eggplant with fresh garlic paste. Menu here. Order online." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff
