Inflight catering for Xi'an flights

Shaanxi cuisine is one of China's oldest culinary traditions, and Xi'an is its centre of gravity. The dishes here trace directly to the Silk Road: lamb from the Wei River plain, hand-pulled noodles, pomegranate from the orchards south of the city. These are not background details — they are the reference point our kitchen works from when building a menu for a departure from XIY. The Muslim Quarter's produce market, a few kilometres from the ZLXY ramp, supplies some of the most consistent lamb and flatbread in northern China. When a client wants something that reads as genuinely local rather than generically Chinese, that is where the sourcing conversation starts.

Biang biang noodles — broad, hand-torn, dressed with chilli oil and Shaanxi vinegar — adapt well to cabin service in a sealed portion format. Rou jia mo, the slow-braised lamb or pork flatbread that predates the sandwich by centuries, travels cleanly and holds temperature. For lighter configurations, Xi'an pomegranate appears in salads and dessert courses; local walnuts and dates sourced from the Qinling foothills round out a cold mezze-style spread that works across dietary requirements without forcing substitutions.
