What the creator captured
Doug Barnard explored the rich Islamic history and culinary scene of Xi'an, noting how the city's role in the Silk Road influenced its unique food. He was particularly impressed by the intense numbing sensation of Sichuan peppercorns in his breakfast soup and the incredible value of the handmade Biangbiang noodles. His journey culminated in a nighttime visit to the Muslim Quarter to try the local specialty of lamb soup with torn pita bread.
