A Prelude to Valentine's Day: Xinjiang Banquet x Singles' Supper Club
More than just a meal, it's a soulful expedition to the Western Regions.
How do you wish to spend the eve of this year's White Valentine's Day?
Instead of jostling through crowds on the streets, why not retreat to a hidden corner of the city and embark on a timeless Silk Road journey.
We've specially chosen the evening of Thursday, March 12th, to book an intimate Xinjiang private dining space.
Here, there are no elaborate formalities, only the most sincere, heartfelt cuisine and the warm glow of poplar lamps.
We invite you, who are also single, to open this door and, as if returning to an old friend's home,
amidst the warm aromas of Xinjiang dishes and the gentle melodies of ethnic music, begin a new story with the person beside you.

# Event Highlights: An Immersive Encounter for All Senses
1. A Nomad's Palate: Savor private kitchen dishes crafted with the heritage of Xinjiang mothers' techniques. From slow-braised lamb chops and black pilaf filled with longing, to the perfect fusion of local, heartfelt ingredients and distant cumin. This is more than dinner; it's a gift from the earth and time.
2. Melodies of the Silk Road: Live performances of Kazakh Dombra and Uyghur folk songs, accompanied by Mongolian long tunes and Muqam, creating the most romantic ambiance for heartfelt conversations.
3. Conversations from the Soul: Rejecting formulaic introductions. Discover the local culture through "dish storytelling," and under the starry lights, listen to a poem, sing a song, allowing souls to connect naturally in a relaxed state.
4. Valentine's Day Gift Exchange: Who says singles don't get Valentine's gifts? Someone has prepared a gift for you, and you, in turn, send blessings to others.
# Xinjiang Banquet Features:
1. Connecting with the Heart: Cuisine and the dining table are never the end goal. The symbolic "Silk Road" and "Western Regions" are fleeting. True gatherings happen because of "life," embracing its sweetness, sourness, bitterness, and spice. True beauty is found in connecting with "people," sharing meals, warming each other, for deep affection and mutual understanding.
2. The Taste of Home: Lacking haute cuisine techniques, yet carrying the good craftsmanship of Xinjiang mothers. Every dish is handmade, simple, and sincere, like the care from family. Not adept at showing or expressing, all their heartfelt intentions are poured into the most homely dishes.
3. Appreciating the Terroir: Taiwan's seared beef evokes the nomadic Kazakh smoked horse meat; slow-braised lamb chops pay homage to the desert Uyghur's whole roasted lamb; a pot of black pilaf brimming with nuts carries longing for the Uzbek pastures; Dongxiang hand-grabbed lamb is served. These dishes are genuine imprints left by thousands of years of Silk Road fusion.
4. Heartfelt Cuisine: The freshest from the market is the local spirit of Wanhua; the chili and cumin from afar represent the authenticity of the Xinjiang people. This is the destined encounter. Stir-fried over high heat, simmered over low heat, no fancy tricks, just true temperament. Large chunks of meat are thrown in, blanched in salt water, skewered and grilled, the Big Plate Chicken as if the whole pot is served. Simple and rustic? Exactly! Every bite is filled with friendship and substance.
