Bayi, long been on the list of Michelin star restaurant, is one of my favorite Xinjiang restaurant in HK. It takes reservation, and we came at about 7PM on a packed Sunday night, luckily we waited a while, and they squeezed us in, and that we had to return the table at 8:30. There are some dishes I wanted to try that would take a longer time to prep, so unfortunately I cannot have those. We ordered quite a lot of dishes among the four of us.

We ordered quite a lot of dishes among the four of us. The Xinjiang style yogurt is a must. The deep dried lamb ribs is laced in a heavy layer of cumin, and can I say how heavenly that is. I went with my hands and just dived my face in the bits and bones.
The Xinjiang Mixed Salad (Lao Hu Cai/ Tiger Veggies) comes at a surprise for me. It was basically green / red peppers / onions and cucumber with vinegar. I would always expect the veggies to be stir fried in a Chinese restaurant, just obliviously ignored the English wording “salad”. I have heard that at Northern China, because vegetables cannot survive the cold, that they cannot wait when Spring comes and just eat it raw. It could be because of how much alcohol and meat they eat, that their taste is more similar to Western culture? Anyways, wouldn’t have ordered it if I knew it was raw.
Shredded chicken with specialty sauce was a big hit. I love how tender the chicken is. The sauce is not overbearing, and you can taste they use good-quality chicken here.
Xinjiang style tossed noodle is a bit confusing for me as well. It is fried meat with lots of onions again not completely mixed with the noodle. I don’t really understand it as a usual chow mein person, and at this point I think I have already ordered too much to avoid complaining about otherwise perfectly fine food. Stir fried sour and spicy shred potato was another hit for me. I think it’s just I have strong preference on what I like and not like when it comes to Northern Chinese food.
All the meat dishes are amazing, t he veggies and noodle type, I will give it a second thought if I am going there again. The meat quality is excellent, and Bayi deserves to be on Michelin for the 7th year!!🧚🏽Follow my ig : @pandaeatshk 🐼 for more food rants! 😋🍑🍖🍕🌮🥘🍣🍮🍳🍜
