In Bu'erjin you'll find Xinjiang staples, including beef and lamb dishes, hand-pulled noodles, flatbreads and yogurt. You'll also find a smattering of Chinese restaurants serving spicier Sichuan-style fare and other regional variations. Once you leave the city and enter the Nature Reserve, choices become more limited, though fresh lake fish, milk tea and some dried meat can make for an excellent yurt-side meal in one of the area villages. One of the highlights for many visitors is outdoor Mongolian barbecue enjoyed around a bonfire under a summer night's sky. If you're a picky eater or plan to do some extensive hiking on your own, be sure to stock up with food before you enter the park, just to be on the safe side.
