Dolan Uyghur Restaurant will hold a "soft opening soon" at 20-A Maryland Avenue at The Square in Rockville. According to Google, the Central Asian restaurant will open this Sunday, July 27, 2025. Owner Hamid Kerim, originally from East Turkistan is working to preserve "the food and flavor of Uyghur culture." To that end, he has three existing locations, in Washington, D.C., Chantilly, and Falls Church. Dolan will replace the very-short-lived Kung Fu Kitchen, which replaced the high profile Peter Chang.
Because of our lack of an authentic Uyghar bistro, I always considered Rockville a bit of a backwater. No more. Welcome Dolan's and good luck.
ReplyDeleteThis is (at least) our 2nd Uyghur spot. Eerkin is in the shopping center where Temptation’s used to be (and where the crazy busy karaoke place is now where Apollo used to be). Dolan is good—I know the spot right next to the Cleveland Park Metro.

DeleteApparently there has been many attacks in the Urumqi region of Nort west China. Is it terrorism?
ReplyDeleteStay in your lane.
DeleteThe CCP (Chinese Communist Party) are the terrorists. They're trying to eradicate the Uyghurs. Many people will tell you it's fake news but they are CCP bots backing up their evil government.
DeleteMaybe both of them are.
