Being a city with a history as log as 3,100 years and an ancient capital as long as 1,200 years, Xi'an is not only famed with its rich cultural heritages but also a city with amazing foods. An ancient wall divides the city into two different parts with shanty area within and new district outside and restaurants fill up every corner of the city with a great variety of food styles.
People who come to China always ask whether can they find proper food since Chinese eat almost everything. Yes, our food could be really complicated but it also can be really simple yet tasty. There are not only foods for meat lovers but also foods for vegetarians.
Walking or travelling by feet and public transportation both inside and outside of the wall will allow you to see more of the city, and sampling and tasting in different eateries at different corners of the city without missing seeing the most characteristic parts of Xi'an will be quite satisfying and appetizing.

Great tour with lots of food

5.00Jackie took us to a lot of great spots. He’s very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. His English skills are very impressive! We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and highly recommend it. Btw- we signed up for this vegetarian tour because it was the only food tour that matched our schedule. We’re not vegetarian so Jackie made it an omnivore tour
Must do tour

5.00We booked the vegetarian food tour with Michael and had a wonderful time and great food with him, he is very polite, knowledgeable and definitely like what he does. All the food we tried were delicious, fresh and very important: it was safe to eat. We asked Michael to order the food without spicy flavor and he was so kind to arrange that for us. All we tried was really good. We went to different places with taxi and also with tuk tuk, or just walking around. The vegetarian dumplings were extremely delicious, do not miss this! If you are in Xian and would like to do a food tour, we strongly recommend to book it with him, you will also get an insight in the Chinese culture and some sightseeing.
A vegetarian feast around Xi’an

5.00We did the vegetarian food tour around Xi’an with Michael. It was fantastic, zero disappointments start to finish. Everything chosen for us to try was delicious. I am vegetarian, my husband isn’t - but he equally enjoyed everything. We are both glad we did the tour on night one, definitely some places we’ll go back to or dishes we’ll try at other places. Thanks Michael!

Amazing vegetarian food and culture

5.00We had an amazing vegetarian food experience with Michael. All of the food was delicious - he enthusiastically guided us to places we never could have discovered on our own, from food stalls to small restaurants - all providing a wide variety of local food choices while providing us with history and cultural tidbits. He also set us up with a tour the next day with his business partner Jackie - they got tickets and guided to the Terra Cotta Warriors, and other sites including a local noodle place that was amazing. We highly recommend the food and culture tours with Michael - he is worth going to Xi 'an to visit.
Delicious!

5.00Since arriving in China, we always managed to eat vegetarian food but it was hard to find the local specialties and enjoy the vast diversity of Chinese cuisine. Michael brought us to both well-known shop and small food stall. We tasted so many different things both savory and sweet and we really enjoyed the stories he told us about the various dishes as well as Chinese history and culture. I recommand doing this tour at the beginning of your stay on Xian so you can come back to your favorites places afterward. Michael was also very helpful for the rest of our trip giving us many tips and even booking tickets for us with a very advantageous discount. Enjoy your stay in Xian!

Fantastic Vegan Food Tour

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00We had a fantastic time in Xi’an and Michael’s vegan food tour was an absolute highlight! Being a vegan in China and not speaking mandarin can be tough but with this tour I was able to try so many local dishes. Michael took us to so many cool spots and hole-in-the-wall street food vendors that we would never have found on our own. We loved it and I would highly recommend this to everyone!
