Hatsudai Station
Uyghur Cuisine Specialty Shop
About
SILKROAD TARIM Uyghur Restaurant (シルクロード・タリム ウイグルレストラン) is the only Uyghur cuisine specialty restaurant in Tokyo. It opened in 2010 within walking distance of Hatsudai Station, near Park Hyatt Tokyo. The owner, from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in China, came to Japan as a foreign student in 2001 and opened the restaurant to introduce Uyghur food culture to Japan. All dishes are halal, and the location was chosen partly because the Tokyo Camii Mosque - the largest mosque in Tokyo - is nearby in Yoyogi-Uehara.
— Tokyo's only Uyghur cuisine
The signature is "Tarim Laghman" (タリム・ラグメン), hand-pulled noodles made to order. Lamb and vegetables are stir-fried in a tomato-based sauce and tossed with freshly pulled noodles - a dish that represents Uyghur cuisine. The chef is a veteran who previously served as head chef at a high-end hotel in Urumqi, recreating Uyghur food culture - including various naan breads, skewers, and lamb dishes - in style. The Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region has a large Muslim population, so every dish is made to halal standards. The dry climate is suited to wheat farming, and the history of preserved spices, breads, and noodle dishes that spread along the Silk Road also appears on the plate. The founder came to Japan as a foreign student in 2001 and opened the restaurant in 2010 with the goal of "bringing tasty Uyghur food into Japanese daily life."
