MAP
( 7044 4000; s/tw/tr from T40,000/50,000/ 55,000; ) The newest hotel in town, this
place is smart throughout, though less welcoming than Seoul. The restaurant comes well
recommended.
Eating
Seoul Hotel and Bayankhongor Hotel both have good restaurants. As always, you'll find
a number of guanz (canteens) selling buuz (mutton dumplings) and khuushuur (mutton
pancakes) near both markets (zakhs) . The smaller Central Market is behind Soyombo
restaurant. The larger Black Market is just southwest of the bus stand. There's a trio of
well-stocked supermarkets beside Seoul Hotel, and a big warehouse-like supermarket,
called Baruun Bus MAP (
10am-8pm) , just south of the Black Market.
Uran Khairkhan MONGOLIAN$
MAP
(meals T3500-5000; 9am-10pm) With its cheery orange-and-yellow tablecloths and cosy
booth dining, jovial Uran Khairkhan is an attractive choice. No English menu, but you'll
find your usual favourites: tsuivan , goulash, bif-shtek (beef patty topped with a fried egg
on rice), plus some vegetarian options, known collectively as tsagaan khool (white eats).
The iced cakes in the cabinet cost T1000 a slice. Beers from T2500.
Mammoh MONGOLIAN$$$
MAP
(mains T6000-10,000; 10am-midnight) Bayankhongor's most pleasant restaurant is clean
and family-friendly, but doesn't have an English menu. They have two or three chicken
dishes (takhia ny makh) , as well as the usual mutton offerings. Their chinjutei makhan
khuurag (stir-fried meat, peppers and onions with rice) is tasty, as is their ondogtei bif-
shtek and moogtei makhan huurag (fried mutton with mushrooms). Walk down the left
side of Khan Bank and it's on your left.
Soyombo MONGOLIAN$$$
MAP
(meals T5000-10,000; 10am-11pm; ) Extensive selection of Mongolian dishes, in-
cluding vegetarian options. Reasonably smart place (if a little overpriced) with the added
attraction of an English menu and free wi-fi. There are some hotel rooms (twins/triples
T30,000/40,000) at the back of the restaurant.
