Zanggong Leisure Dining

藏宫休闲餐饮

A well-known local Khampa-style Tibetan restaurant in Yushu, serving yak meat, aka buns and butter tea, with a stage for Khampa song and dance.

Zanggong was founded by Yushu native Sonam Rinchen. It started as a tent restaurant in 2012 and now operates in the Khampa-style street area; Xinhua, The Paper and others have reported on it. The interior is decorated in Khampa style, with a stage for Tibetan song and dance performances. The menu focuses on traditional Yushu beef and mutton dishes. Diners often order charcoal-grilled yak meat, aka buns, yogurt with gyalhu (Tibetan silverweed) and butter tea. Simpler meals such as Khampa noodles and rice bowls are also available, and reviews mention fried yogurt. Most customers are locals, and tourists increase in peak season, so book a private room in advance at mealtimes. Average cost about CNY 70–85 per person. Ctrip lists the address as 46 Dangdai West Road, an 8-minute walk from the Jiegu Center stop on the airport shuttle line.
