Recently, I watched the Netflix documentary ​Chef’s Table: Noodles<\/em><\/u>​<\/a>, and I could not wait to share it with you! One episode features chef and restaurateur Guirong Wei<\/em><\/a>, a friend of mine and an incredible advocate for promoting the cuisine of Xi’an<\/em> (home of the Terracotta Army), where her culinary journey began. The story is both inspiring and touching, and her food? Absolutely mouth-watering! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The image above shows two of her signature dishes: Liang Pi<\/a> (top<\/em>) and Biang Biang Noodles<\/a> (bottom<\/em>), which I enjoyed at her London restaurant Master Wei Xi’an<\/em><\/a>. These and other iconic Xi’an dishes showcased in the documentary hit a soft spot for me because I grew up eating them, lovingly made by my mum, who is also from that region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think you’ll enjoy the show too! And if it makes you hungry (which I’m sure it will), check out the recipes for these dishes that I’ve already shared on the blog. With easy-to-follow instructions, you’ll be able to teleport these mouthwatering dishes from the screen to your own dining table.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The most iconic dish of Xi’an cuisine, Biang Biang noodles<\/a> are a must try! It features hand-pulled, wide, chewy noodles seasoned with a spicy, tangy and garlicky sauce. So delicious!<\/p>\n\n\n
