Today we’re on a mission to eat the best Chinese mutton soup I’ve ever had! The restaurant is located in Weinan, about an hour outside of Xi’an, in the Shaanxi province of China. The cooking actually begins the day before, where 4 whole sheets are added to a jacuzzi sized pot, and boiled overnight within their own fat, along with Chinese cardamom, dry chilies, and Sichuan pepper.
They open at 6 AM and the meat is falling off the bone tender. When they serve you, you get some of the meat chopped in your bowl, topped with Sichuan pepper oil, coriander and and handful of fresh Sichuan pepper. It’s an overdose of flavor, and the mutton will melt in your mouth.

Terracotta Army - One of China’s most important historical sites is the Terracotta Army.
