Hutong Lamb Skewers
×Grilled Lamb Skewers
Why you must eat itLean and fat lamb are threaded in turn and grilled over charcoal, dusted with cumin, chili powder and salt. Dripping fat sends up flames, and the scent drifts through the hutong. Fresh off the coals, they are fragrant outside and tender within. Taken a few at a time on paper, they are eaten standing. Anyone wary of the gamey note can ask for them well done.
Skewers spread from Xinjiang and took root as Beijing night food. Forms range from stalls to shops. Prices are a guide per skewer, and you order by the count. Because of the smoke, seating is often outside. Stalls run mainly from evening into the night. Check crowds and location on site.
