The diet in Dunhuang revolves around wheat flour noodles. They are served with lamb, chicken, and beef. A noodle dish called Dunhuang Rang Pizi has long been one of the most popular dishes in the city. These noodles are made from pea flour and are clear, white, cool and slippery. They are seasoned with hot peppers for a cool, yet spicy, taste that is just perfect for desert weather.
Shazhou Night Market is one of the best places in Dunhuang to try authentic Dunhuang specialties. All of the best of Dunhuang's northwestern cuisine can be found here: saozi noodles, stuffed bread and mutton kebabs. Huanghe sweet melons, grapes and hami melons can be sampled as well.
