Vibes from the Friday Halal Market at Shanghai's Huxi Mosque: Halal street food and exotic flair along Aomen Road
Summary:
A firsthand look at the special Friday Halal market (Jummah market) outside Shanghai's Huxi Mosque. A full capture of the street stalls along Aomen Road serving up fresh skewers, hot roasted baozi (steamed stuffed buns), specialty nang (Xinjiang flatbread), and traditional pastries—diving into Shanghai's unique, vibrant Muslim neighborhood street culture.
For the longest time, every Friday right outside Huxi Mosque on Aomen Road, you'd find a pop-up market overflowing with all kinds of incredible Halal street eats. It was super unique, and I was lucky enough to work nearby so I could check it out all the time!
The red tents stand out so much, lined up in a row that looks like it goes on forever.
Expats really know their stuff—this is a hidden spot that plenty of locals don't even know about!
From walnut vendors to freshly baked nang (Xinjiang flatbread) sellers...
The shouzhua fan (Xinjiang hand-grabbed rice) stall is killing it, every single seat is totally packed~
There are several lamb skewer spots all on the same block, completely filling the street with that amazing neighborhood smoke and energy~
All kinds of lamb skewers, nang (Xinjiang flatbread), and roasted lamb legs
Plus fresh cuts of beef and mutton
Super fresh, sliced-to-order giant watermelon
Hotan jade
And all sorts of pastries! The absolute best ones are napaliyong (Napoleon cake) and miweiduo (honey cake)!
The bustling traffic makes it so fun to just soak it all in.
During Eid al-Fitr, they actually shut down this whole street. It's packed with devout believers wearing their white taqiyah caps—such an epic, unforgettable sight. It's the most important holiday for Muslims, and they line up in neat rows to pray in total order. Even the city buses have to detour around it. Honestly, even if you're just a passenger catching a quick glance out the window, it's a moment you'll never forget!
The old Huxi Mosque back in the day (before renovations)
Even though the open-air Friday market had to pause because of the pandemic, it's made a comeback in a brand-new way over at 285 Changshou Road. It's a mini-sized version called 'Pin Huiwei Northwest Halal Restaurant.' You've gotta try their napaliyong (Napoleon cake)—back in the day it was a massive internet sensation, and honestly, once you try it, you'll be hooked forever. It's super milky, rich, and ridiculously good! If you're ever in the area, I totally recommend swinging by to grab some~ view all
