Cacaja
CONNY129 | Xi'an | 1/23/2006 12:49:55 AM

Cacaja ,a newly opened Indian cuisine restaurant ,located in the 46# Yan Ta Xi Road,southwest to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda .
It is not very large ,but decorated delicately .
If you are a curry lover ,you should have a try.
The menu is written both in Chinese and English , but I doubt wether the waitress can speak English :)

3 Royalty 3 House restaurant opened a few monthes ago .It is a complex restaurant serve pizza,rice ,pasta,western hot pot,cake ,ice cream ,water ice , western flavor tea etc~~~
The cafeteria in which the customers have to help themselves at a counter and carry their water, table ware to tables .But the waiters will serve the dishes to you ,quiet interesting .Maybe that is its feature ?
The waiting time is long ,but the dishes are top end .Especially the pizza can be compared with Pizza Hut ,but the price is just half.One should be mentioned is that the decoration is very very elegant.
Although waiting is impatient ,it is worthy.There are three branches in Xi'an ,one located in the Square of Big Goose Pagoda ,another in Fen Xiang ,a very famous alley near South Street,the third is newly opened in the crossroad of North Street,easy to be seen .Their slogan is "ease your life"^_^

Banana Leaf Xi'an branch store lies in 2f Times 2000 Service Mansion ,No.8 Five Star Street,mainly manages Thailand,the southeast Asian typical local dish.
The traditional Thai-style decoration and food is really exceptional ,and foreign staff will sing and dance to share enjoyment with everybody.
I think it is a romantic place to have dinner in ,and you can find many many foreigners there .

pizza-hut

Pizza-hut has its branches all over the country,you can easily find it in many big cities,and Xi'an also have two in the most prosperous places.One is in the South street and the other is in Xiao Zhai,both of them are well decorated and usually you have to wait for a seat.
It serves appetizing pizza with different types and pasta and other western-style foods,My favorite is sea food pizza ,very nice :).Despite delicious food ,you can also enjoy top-ranking service,dulcet music and pleasant ambience.The cost is nearly 60-80 yuan per person.You will have a cheerful mood there.

A Janpanese cuisine restaurant to avoid
CONNY129 | Xi'an | 7/29/2005 4:36:44 PM

I have no interest in Japanese food anyway,but several friends of mine recommend a Japanese cuisine restaurant called Jiu Bing Wei in Heping Road.Dissent effectless ,I had to follow them to have a buffet dinner there.
The fee is 48 yuan per person if you don't order sashimi,or else each person should pay 68 yuan. It sounds a resonable price (Japanese food is always expensive),actually , what we can order is limited .Despite the price and service,as far as taste is concerned ,Japanese cuisine should be lite ,but what we taste is only salty.Except sushi ,I can't find any other good dishes ,but the sushi ,is compared with the others to be good ,not really excellent.
We had no appetite to swallow the unsavory dishes ,so we decide to go away and asked for the bill ,guess ,what happened ?The servant told us we should eat up all the dishes we ordered ,otherwise ,we had to pay more for the leftover .At the end,we payed extra 20 yuan for two unsavoury dishes ,and the servant miscalculated the bill (we surely have no possibility to pay less),when we found the mistake,we almost wearied of patience.
Oh,What a unpleasant experience!So if you really enjoy the Japanese cuisine ,go to Roppongi ,No.12 in the South Street Xi'an,south of the KaiYuan Shopping Mall,easy to find , it is not bad indeed.
