Drunk Lou Lan Description

The lifeless remains of the ancient Kingdom of Loulan, located in Xinjiang’s Tarim Basin, are no place for drunken revelry. But inside Drunk Lou Lan restaurant, which is housed on the fifth floor of GTLand Spring Plaza, cracking a couple of ice-cold Xinjiang beers is a matter of course. 

Topping the recommended list of specials is the ‘naang pit grilled lamb chops’ (RMB98/288). A mixture of pepper, salt, cumin and flour is applied to the boney portions of lamb before they are baked on the inner wall of a clay oven that’s also used to bake naang. When removed from the oven, the lamb chops have a crisp, golden skin.
