This trip to southern Xinjiang was a clear experience of the "language barrier"! I thought young people could chat a little, but even the waiters in the restaurant mainly used "smile and nod" and communicated with each other through gestures and eye contact, and they didn't want to pay attention to you.
Later I realized: people live a happy life in the county town, they can buy vegetables in Uyghur, chat with fellow villagers, and live a life like poetry without moving for a lifetime. Learning Chinese? It's just an "extra skill package"~ But now the schools are awesome, pure Uyghur schools have basically become a "legend", and bilingual classes are also quietly "slimming down", focusing on letting children practice Chinese fluently from an early age, after all, one more language means a lot more possibilities!
The most amazing thing was that day when I was looking for food, the smoke from the barbecue restaurants around me almost made me turn into a barbecue skewer. Suddenly, I saw potatoes, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, and celery in the freezer of a small store. Although they were wilted, I was still excited and immediately waved my hand: "Bring a plate of every vegetable in the store! Fry them all!"
When the plates of fried vegetables with the smell of the wok were served on the table, the potatoes were soft and tasty, the cabbage was sweet and refreshing, and even the celery that I didn't like to eat usually became particularly fragrant. Looking at this table full of green and hot home-cooked dishes, it was more intimate than meeting relatives! At that moment, this "all-vegetarian banquet" was more fragrant than a Michelin meal in my eyes. It was like meeting a sweet spring in the desert and digging out an oasis in the barbecue pile. The sense of happiness was directly full~ Sure enough, the joy of traveling is half hidden in the scenery, and half hidden in the dining table where you can order smoothly and realize "vegetable freedom"! 🍚🥬

A must-eat pigeon soup restaurant every time A must-eat when you come to Kuche! ! ! There are only three dishes in the restaurant: pigeon soup, roasted pigeon, and pigeon noodles Each one is delicious and you can order whatever you want Pigeon soup should be eaten with naan. Break the naan into small pieces and soak it for a while. There are also chickpeas in the soup base The restaurant has a strong ethnic atmosphere and is very distinctive But the clerk's Mandarin is still OK, don't worry After tasting the pigeons in Kashgar, which are well-received, I think this one in Kuche is more to my taste😋 Please don't mind the low rating on a certain software (after all, people in southern Xinjiang don't use this software) #Local food #Xinjiang food #Try the authentic old brand #Really delicious snacks #Local special snacks
