Looking back, the dish we made in Dunhuang & Silk Road was not restaurant-perfect, which made me like it more. We had made it ourselves and understood what went into it.

The unglamorous part: the useful part in Dunhuang & Silk Road was having someone explain how to order the same dishes later. I left with names in my phone, not just photos.

Before you go, come hungry in Dunhuang & Silk Road and say clearly what you cannot eat. There was enough variety that skipping one item did not make the experience feel smaller.

We booked because arranging Dunhuang & Silk Road ourselves looked fiddly. We came away remembering the conversations as much as the places.
