A chain that rounds up Shaanxi cooking under Xi'an's old name, Chang'an. Each branch has a theme; the Bell Tower one is dressed as a Lantern Festival fair, with music and dance on a central stage. Whole fried gourd chicken, biangbiang noodles, mini roujiamo and jujube rice cake let you cover Xi'an's greatest hits in one sitting. Order by table QR and pay at the counter on the way out.
