Yang Si Yang Zasui

Yang Si Yang Zasui is an offal soup shop at 74 Yinhe Lane in Xingqing District, Yinchuan, the capital of China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. It serves yang zasui, the Hui mutton offal soup that is a defining local breakfast: sheep offal simmered in a clear, peppery broth and served hot with herbs and chilli oil. The shop's other listed items are spiced lamb, sliced and served as a savoury side, and steamed bun (mantou), which is torn into the soup to soak up the broth. The kitchen is halal, as is usual for Hui eateries in Ningxia, and no alcohol is served. The room is a small snack-shop interior with simple tables and a steaming counter at the front, and the atmosphere is brisk, practical and local, with customers coming and going quickly. There is no dress code. Prices are low at about 15 to 30 yuan per person, roughly 2 to 4 US dollars, so ordering a soup, a side and a bun remains inexpensive. Breakfast and lunch are the serving periods; hours should be confirmed locally since small shops commonly close when the day's soup has sold out. The shop takes no reservations. Visitors walk in, order at the counter and find a seat; for lunch, arriving before 12:00 or after 1:30PM helps avoid the rush. The shop sits directly across the lane from Najiahu Yang Zasui at number 71, and the pairing gives an easy chance to compare two neighbouring versions of the same dish, a common pastime for local food enthusiasts. Those unfamiliar with offal can ask for a small bowl, request less chilli or start with the spiced lamb and bun. Yinhe Lane is a narrow street in the old residential area, so using a map app or ride-hailing destination pin avoids confusion.
