| Turpan
caters more for tourists than some of the other
cities in Xinjiang. As a result, many restaurants
here serve good, standard Chinese fare, have English
menus and some even sell western style food. The
best selection of places is around the crossroads
of Qiunian Lu and Lao Cheng Lu. The Chipu Cafe is
currently the pick of the crop round here, serving
good Sichuan and Uigur food. Opposite the Turpan
Hotel is John's Information Cafe. This place serve
good western food and offer invaluable advice about
travel in the region. You can also hire bikes and
organize drivers and donkey carts from here! Basic
Uigur staples such as noodles and kebabs and Uigur
Rice, are available from the small stalls and restaurants
around Lao Cheng Lu. If it is more upmarket Chinese
food you are looking for, try one of the restaurants
in the Oasis Hotel. |
