Description

People drive to this Muslim Chinese restaurant from all over to enjoy the cook-it-yourself house specialty, Peking hot pot. A portable gas burner topped by a pot full of simmering flavored broth sits on the table, surrounded by plates of raw ingredients of your choice, such as prosciutto-thin lamb, spinach, and earthy, aromatic chrysanthemum greens. Grab a piece of food with your chopsticks, dip it in the boiling broth, then dunk it in a complex dipping sauce. Old Mandarin is also famous for Northern-style dishes like cumin lamb, stir-fried crepe with vegetables, and fish soup with sour cabbage. If you're looking for pork, go elsewhere: The restaurant is halal.







  • 2008 | Best Muslim Chinese Restaurant

    As exotic as the notion of Islamic Chinese fare sounds, China has an estimated 20 million Muslims. Don't be fooled by the restaurant's humble appearance: This place is dynamite -- and so is the dish titled "Extremely Hot Pepper," for obvious reasons. Order a Peking hot pot and simmer your own meals, or rely on the expert staff for specialties such as the cumin-smothered Mandarin lamb, delicious onion pancakes, or cucumber bean curd (the best tofu dish you'll ever eat).

    As exotic as the notion of Islamic Chinese fare sounds, China has an estimated 20 million Muslims. Don't be fooled by the restaurant's humble appearance: This place is dynamite — and so is the dish titled "Extremely Hot Pepper," for obvious reasons. Order a Peking hot pot and simmer your own meals, or rely on the expert staff for specialties such as the cumin-smothered Mandarin lamb, delicious onion pancakes, or cucumber bean curd (the best tofu dish you'll ever eat). One thing you won't find: pork. While it may take a while to be seated, dishes are cooked rapidly and the portions are generous. After dinner you might feel compelled to walk off your meal with a stroll to Ocean Beach, only five blocks away.
