Beijing can be said to be a melting pot of national and even international cuisine, but this trip to Beijing, I still prefer to taste the local characteristics of old Beijing, in addition to a few Internet celebrity cuisines, basically in the decades or even hundreds of years of history of the old shop to find the taste of the years. Some people say that "there is no food in Beijing", but in terms of personal taste, I feel that Beijing's cuisine is still very powerful, even those long-established brands that have been criticized for their time still retain the wind and bone of time and the unique charm.
1. Chinese food
1. Four Seasons Minfu Roast Duck Restaurant
(Address: No. 11, Nanchizi Street, Dongcheng District, Beijing)
In terms of online evaluation and queuing difficulty alone, it is no exaggeration to call this Four Seasons Minfu Forbidden City store the hottest roast duck restaurant in Beijing, and there are still many people waiting for the number at 2 p.m. on weekdays, which shows its popularity. Of course, all this is not only due to the advantages of geographical location, the taste of roast duck itself is the core competitiveness that is so highly respected by the people. More importantly, such a hot business, it is even more valuable to be able to maintain a low-key and humble service attitude.
Although the "crisp and tender roast duck" is not enough to surprise me as a veteran foodie, it is definitely the top of the dozens of fruit roast ducks I have eaten, and the excellent service and clean environment also add a lot to the dining process.
Referral Index: ★★★★★
"Old Beijing fried sauce noodles" compared to their own fried sauce noodles, the accessories here may be more complicated, what beans, soybeans, green beans, radish shreds, cucumber shreds, but the taste of fried sauce is more moderate, if you work hard, I can also make such a bowl of noodles with almost the same taste at home, so I can only say that it is decent.
Referral Index: ★★★
"Fried enema" is called enema, which is actually a starch product, which was first fried from the oil refined from the large intestine of pigs, and now it is changed to vegetable oil, and the so-called fried enema has nothing to do with the intestines. As a traditional snack in Beijing, it feels like the taste is general, the taste is hard, there is nothing special, if you have not eaten it, you can taste it, and you can know what the taste is.
Referral Index: ★★
Quite inconspicuous door face, no way, the edge of the Forbidden City is really scarce

The taste of roast duck depends largely on the craftsmanship of the sliced duck
Of course, the most important thing about the roast duck in the hanging oven is the control of the heat
The duck skin is plated a little fresh
Duck skin dipped in white sugar, fat and high glycemic index carbs, I am a fat person who only dares to eat one slice

2. Jubaoyuan
(Address: No. 5-2, Niu Street, Xicheng District, Beijing)
Revered by countless diners, it is known as the best copper pot shabu-shabu in Beijing.
"Hand-cut lamb tendons" is the most tender lamb I have ever eaten, although it is the tendon meat on the leg of lamb, there is almost no fat, but the taste is not stiff at all, with his family's secret sesame sauce, even my hot pot gourmet, I was actually amazed.
Each slice of "high-calcium lamb" is made of fresh lamb mixed with hard and crisp cartilage, and because it is cut very thinly, the elderly and children can easily chew it, which is a better combination than pure lamb.
"Cow Hundred Leaves" is controlled according to the fire of seven up and eight down, and the blindSliver Q is more suitable for the tastes of young people, and the old people will have some difficulty in chewing.
Recommendation Index: ★★★ ☆
For this kind of restaurant with large traffic, the freshness of vegetables must be impeccable, and the amount of this large plate is really sufficient, and the price of 35 yuan is quite affordable.

3. Hongbin Building
(Address: No. 203, 2nd Floor, Union Building, No. 20 Chaoyangmenwai Street, Chaoyang District, Beijing)
The first of the eight buildings of The Halal In Kyoto, the price is high, but the taste is absolutely authentic.
The sign in the "Braised Oxtail" signboard, although the expectations for this dish are already high, but still quite a surprise, the heat is really amazing, the beef is completely deboned, but it is not too scattered, and the taste is more salty and sweet, impeccable.
In contrast, another signature dish is too general, not as good as the old popcorn full of cheap pop sheep sandan, plus the price of 148, making this dish extremely low cost-effective.
"Casserole sheep's head" sheep's head meat melts in the mouth, the soup is rich and mellow, and it can't be eaten at all, and the cross-border combination of white water sheep's head + haggis soup + cream mushroom soup is a cross-border combination.
Referral Index: ★★★★
Although the "braised hoof tendons" are all braised, the sauce of this dish tastes completely different from the braised oxtail, specifically it should be that the taste is not strong enough, and the hoof tendons are stewed too badly, less chewy.
"Qianlong cabbage" is a complete serendipity, it can be said to subvert my understanding of cold mixed cabbage, crisp and clear, dotted with hawthorn cake and radish slices are the icing on the cake in terms of color and taste, it can be said to be an extreme cold dish.
"It's honey-like" is actually sweet and sour lamb, and it is a very general kind of sweet and sour sauce, but fortunately, the lamb is tender and smooth enough.

4, the old belly of The Cow Street is full
(Address: No. 32, Langfang Ertiao, Xicheng District, Beijing)
This is the branch of NiuJie's old explosive belly near the Qianmen Dashilar, the door is very small, but the taste is not ambiguous, from the word of mouth of the group of 128 yuan boutique double meal, almost every dish is surprising.
"Fried Beef Blinds" Beef Blinds are fresh enough, the heat is precise enough, the taste is crisp, and with the fragrant 28 sauce, the signature dish did not disappoint.
Recommendation Index: ★★★★ ☆
Compared with the beef hundred leaves, the taste of the sheep loose list is not so Q bullet, but it is more tender, and I personally feel much more delicious than the 148 plate of Coriander Burst Dan in Hongbin Building.
"Spiced sheep's head meat" has eaten the best sheep's head meat so far, soft and sticky, suitable for all ages.
The ingredients of "roast cake sandwich meat" are more precise, and the flavor of the baked cake itself will not be masked because of the taste of spices, and the beef sandwich is also very flavorful, and the amount is really large, and the meat sandwich bun is strengthened with ingredients.
"Blanched cabbage" ate a belly of meat, cabbage is just used to neutralize the grease, of course, cabbage itself will not be so brilliant, but in the set menu, it plays a very prominent role.
The "haggis soup" tastes decent, probably because I have drunk too many kinds of mutton soup since I was a child, so this bowl of haggis did not make me feel anything special, but the haggis was indeed stewed enough, almost to the point of melting in the mouth.

5. Barbecue season
(Address: No. 72, Xianyukou Street, Qianmen, Dongcheng District, Beijing)
Beijing's hot roast meat is most famous for the roast meat wan and the roast meat season, known as the southern wan and northern season. This shop is located in Xianyukou Street at the front gate, which is more suitable for punching in the way when playing. By the way, these restaurants in the front door, the business is really cold, may be this reason, the service staff of each store are very enthusiastic, there is no old brand relying on the old selling old or the state-owned store attitude is cold online transmission stubborn disease.
"Wen eat roast leg of lamb" Wen eat is to let the back kitchen to bake it well, compared to the need to do it yourself, I chose to believe more in the roasting standards of professional chefs. The result did not disappoint me, the lamb was roasted very tender, the heat grasp was really just right, the fly in the ointment was that there was more oil, which was not in line with my eating habits of less oil and low salt, of course, if you do not consider the problem of weight loss, this dish can basically score a full score.
The "roasted cake" pepper powder is a little bit more, and the taste is slightly heavier, but the freshly baked cake tastes good.

Snack class
1. Old Ciqikou bean juice shop
(Address: Building 19, Fangqunyuan District, Fanggu Road, Fengtai District, Beijing)
"Bean juice", a magical snack mixed with the taste of swill and rice paste, is really not my dish, no matter how much old Beijing promotes this feature, at least I can't appreciate it, and objectively speaking, compared with the bean juice I tasted after I boldly tried the taste of Yin San bean juice again, the bean juice of the old circumference mouth is a bit thinner, making the taste of the bean juice more inclined to the former before the swill and rice paste.
"Noodle tea" is really too much in line with my taste, fine millet powder, rich sesame paste, salty sesame salt, together to produce an unparalleled wonderful taste, so that after I go to any small shop, as long as there is noodle tea, I must come to a bowl to relieve the hunger, although it is difficult to say which one makes the most positive taste, but as the first bowl of noodle tea in my life, the noodle tea of the old ciqikou I must recommend with full marks.
"Tofu brain" feels that the tofu brain in Tianjin and Beijing is basically in the same vein, it is made of starch to be very viscous, although it tastes good to eat, but I still prefer the clear taste of Shandong tofu brain soup, but the tofu brain of old Beijing is very in line with the taste of the mother, so the advantages and disadvantages are really different from person to person.
The biggest advantage is that the beef filling is not very greasy, and it is completely possible to add a star from a health point of view, after all, many shops add a lot of fat oil purely for the sake of taste, so that although the meatloaf tastes very delicious, it feels very greasy after eating.
"Scorch circle" can be understood as fried more crisp ring fritters, the taste is a bit similar to the twist flowers freshly fried on the side of the road here, eating alone feels very greasy, personal feeling that if this thing is made into pancake fruit, it may be better than the effect of sandwiching fritters, to know that in Tianjin punch card several pancake fruits, there is a general problem that fritters are too soft, and the pancake taste coincides, it is better to clamp the crispy to have a more layered sense, and the crispy charring ring obviously does not exist this problem.
The "mung bean cake" is a bit hard, the filling is not much and not fragrant, and it feels inferior to the palace mung bean cake or fairy bean cake that are full of streets.
"Donkey Roll" is very mediocre, even not as good as the box of donkey rolls on the Internet, but overall it is a little better than mung bean cake.

2. Yin San bean juice
(Address: No. 176, Dongxiaoshi Street, Dongcheng District, Beijing)
It is actually a shop with the longest queue on this trip to Beijing, listening to the people in line, I feel that whether it is a traveler visiting the Temple of Heaven or an old Beijing living nearby, it is highly respected for this small shop that ranks first in Beijing bean juice on the public review.
"Bean juice" is still a sour and smelly taste, still not my dish, but it is thicker than the bean juice of the old ciguer mouth, and the taste is slightly more acceptable.
The taste of "noodle tea" is basically the same as that of the noodle tea of the old ciqikou, and the taste may be slightly lighter, but it is still fragrant.
The "Mochi Grilled Cake" is of the highest standard, and the texture and taste are among the best in Beijing's Mochi Baked Cake.

3. Niangxin food
(Address: Beijing Fengtai District Qunxing Road Fangzhuang FangxingYuan No. 15 Longteng Daye Market A1011)
This is a humble small shop located on the edge of Fangzhuang Market, specializing in all kinds of soy products, and it is also a new Internet celebrity cuisine.
"Old Beijing Vegetarian Assortment" personally feels that the best vegetarian assortment I have ever eaten, there is no one, the taste is just tuned just right, it will not be as sweet as Shanghai's soy products, the ingredients are soft and tough, although it is not the store's signature dish, but I personally highly recommend it.
The spiciness of "rumiganol" is more in line with my taste, and the taste is also good, which can be understood as a well-made spicy bean skin.
"Bean braid" is a huge bean roll made of tofu skin, cut open with a knife to eat, the original taste, the bean flavor is not prominent, the taste is light.
"Spicy bean braid" bean braid after pouring spicy oil immediately upgraded to a completely different kind of food, the original tasteless bean braid is only responsible for providing a sense of layering, spicy oil is completely the protagonist of the taste, if there is no dipping sauce hot pot has no soul, then the bean braid without chili oil is completely lost the three souls and seven spirits.
"Soy milk muffin" 2 yuan a piece, made of okara as the main raw material, sweet, taste good, soft, slightly sweet, very clear, more suitable for eating a belly of red oil products after the use of to reconcile the spicy taste in the mouth.

4. Court crispy beef cake
(Address: North side of the first floor of Building 14, Niu Street, Xicheng District, Beijing)
"Court Crispy Beef Cake" All kinds of beef patties in Niu Street can be said to be blooming everywhere, but only this one is fried, and the price of 5 yuan a piece is also the lowest. To my taste, the beef filling itself already has a lot of oil, and the crust is fried, which must be too greasy, but the child is surprisingly fond of his beef cake, so much so that we take a mid-afternoon time out of the tight schedule to run to punch the clock twice.
"Pea yellow" 15 yuan a large box, the taste is decent, in Beijing to eat pea yellow basically a taste, there are not too many surprises.
There are still many varieties of business

5. Ma Ji baked cake
(Address: No. 14, Building 2, No. 2, Dongli District, Niujie Street, Beijing)
"Sesame sauce baked cake" 1 yuan a price is very cheap, but this baked cake is really a little small, and basically I eat in Beijing the worst taste of the sesame sauce baked cake, even if it is hot to eat, bite down is also hard Bangbang, there is no sesame sauce baked cake should be crispy taste, compared to the high score evaluation on the Internet, this store is somewhat unworthy of the name.

6. Full of burnt cakes
(Address: No. 3, Niu Street, Beijing)
"Sesame sauce baked cake" and Ma Ji baked cake, is also 1 yuan a piece, the size is similar, but the taste is much better, the boss lady is an old lady, the affinity of the tone of speech is really quite general, but with this service attitude can survive for so many years, indicating that the quality is indeed excellent.
Nearby people seem to be more recognized by this family
The sense of layering is still good
7. Mumin cuisine
(Address: No. 8 Commercial, Building 2, Dongli District, NiuJie, Xicheng District, Beijing)
"Beef yakitori" is the best beef patty in Niujie, the skin is full of puff pastry, it is not very greasy, and it is said to be the signature product of this shop.
"Ma sauce baked cake" 1.5 yuan, much larger than the Ma Ji baked cake, and the taste is much better, the taste of the sauce is very sufficient, but not too much, the taste is very layered, basically reached the level of full of flavor, in Beijing have eaten so many sesame sauce baked cake, this shop can be ranked first.
The combination of "spiral" oil spin and sugar fire, although the shape is more eye-catching, but it is the taste of sugar fire, of course, the ratio of brown sugar and sesame sauce is very good, sweetness and sauce aroma are more appropriate.

8. HongJi Snack Bar on NiuJie Street
(Address: No. 12 Niu Street, Xicheng District, Beijing)
Basically, it is the largest snack bar in NiuJie, and in addition to dine-in, it has also opened several takeaway windows according to food classification, of which buns, meat and fried cakes are the hottest business.
"Fried cake" Hongji snacks the most popular single product, personally feel that one of the three best in Tianjin ear eye fried cake, the outer layer of rice cake taste soft, viscosity is appropriate, just the right slight acid, will not destroy the overall feeling of the dessert, but also added a rich taste feeling, the taste of the bean paste filling inside is not inferior to the signature bean paste mooncake of the apricot blossom building, and the amount is very large, bite almost to overflow the same, can be called another kind of burst pulp taste. As a senior glutinous rice controller, Hongji Snack's fried cake can be called the top 2 of the glutinous rice products I have eaten along with the rice dumplings in Dongxing, Guangxi.
Although "beef pellets" is one of the signature products in the meat category of the store, I personally do not feel that there is anything special, compared with the beef of Zibo Qingmeiju.

9, Yao Ji belly wrapped meat
(Address: Building 11, No. 11, Xili District, NiuJie, Xicheng District, Beijing)
Dianping's no.1 food on Cow Street is known as a super Internet celebrity who opens at 9 a.m. and will be out of stock at 1 p.m.
"Belly bag whole sheep" does not have the slightest smell of haggis, the processing is really clean, the taste is soft, the taste is relatively light, personal feeling is similar to the white water sheep's head, not as shocking as the legend, but it is indeed not easy to achieve this level of haggis.
Hidden deep in residential areas, it is extremely difficult to find

10. Moon fasting
(Address: In the halal supermarket of Niu Street, No. 5 Niu Street, Xicheng District, Beijing)
With a history of more than 230 years, it specializes in various types of cooked food, and beef sauce is its main product.
"Spice sauce beef" tastes really good, compared to many small shop products, his sauce beef stew is particularly bad, eat will not stuff teeth, more valuable is that the meat will not fall apart, the standard of signature cuisine is still very high.
The "sauced lamb liver" tastes between pork liver and rabbit liver, and retains a hint of the characteristic smell of haggis, which is just right for someone like me who likes to eat lamb.

"Walnut sugar gourd" old Beijing sugar gourd reputation, this shop in Beijing is also a little famous, objectively speaking, the material is indeed good, walnut kernels and hawthorn grades are relatively high, but in terms of taste, and hometown sugar gourd is actually similar, that is, the price is almost twice as expensive.

Pastries
1. White rice cake
(Address: Beijing Xicheng District Niu Street No. 5 Niu Street Halal Supermarket on the first floor window)
NiuJie is another super internet celebrity food, and if you want to punch here, there are only two situations: either queue up, or queue for a long time.
"Jiangmi rice cake" is worthy of the signature food, although it looks like an upgraded version of bean paste rice dumplings, but the ingredients are really too real, the taste is also mixed well, although there are people on the top who do not like to eat hawthorn cakes, but the sour hawthorn flavor is dotted in the sweet rice cake but there is a very wonderful taste impact, which is very useful. If this kind of rice cake is hard to compare with sweet rice dumplings, it can basically be said to be reduced in dimensionality.
"Purple Rice Cake" replaces the rice with the purple rice that I prefer, which makes the already very rich flavor add a bit of the unique mellow aroma of black grain, and the overall taste experience is upgraded again.
The "Yellow Rice Noodle Rice Cake" replaces the ingredients of the rice cake with yellow rice noodles, probably due to the lack of layering of rice grains, and the overall taste has dropped significantly by one notch.
"Donkey Rolling" The most delicious donkey rolling in Beijing, rough on the outside and delicate on the inside.
"Coconut Roll Cake" is almost like replacing the hawthorn strips on the rice cake with coconut paste, and the taste is certainly not bad.
"Aiwowo" in Baiji's pastries belongs to the kind of stuffing that is more picky, and the overall taste is also very mediocre, probably several other varieties of pearl jade in front, in comparison, the taste of this Aiwowo is really not passed.
The price is quite affordable

2. Ybao Lotus Leaf Dumpling Cake
(Address: Beijing Xicheng District Niu Street No. 5 Niu Street Halal Supermarket frontage window)
"Lotus leaf dumplings" have bought Xi'an Muslim Street cakes on the Internet before, after heating also feel so unpalatable, this time tried the just out of the pot of koshiki cakes, the taste is completely different, really delicious, thick red date mud, soft glutinous rice and the finishing touch of red kidney beans, taking turns to stroke the most sweet parts of the taste buds, really belong to the kind of food that can't stop eating.
"Kidney bean cake" his family's kidney bean cake has 7 flavors, only tried the taro puree and sugar-free, the taste is very bad, the taste of the taro puree is slightly better, sugar-free has no taste at all, no matter how carefully tasted can not eat the proper aroma of the ingredients themselves, will never eat a second time.

3. Da Shun Zhai
Tongzhou's long-established pastry shop, the earliest to make sugar fire burned, commonly known as Tongxian has three treasures: Xiaolou Restaurant's roast catfish, Wantong Sauce Garden's sauce tofu, and then Da Shun Zhai's sugar fire.
The snacks in the "Sugar Fire" window are all cold, and the sugar fire is no exception, but take it home and heat it slightly in the microwave or oven, just like just out of the pan. Overall, the sense of layering is very strong, the outside is crisp and tender, the ingredients are reasonable, and the taste is similar to the spiral of Mu Min cuisine.

4. Sanyuan Plum Garden
(Address: F1 Floor, Beijing Fangzhuang Shopping Center, No. 24 Pufang Road, Fengtai District, Beijing)
It is said that the recipe of the imperial court meal was inherited, participated in the World Food Expo, and was an intangible cultural heritage, and the title was quite intimidating anyway, but the result was shocking.
"Double milk roll" looks exactly like a meat dragon, but it is made of pure milk, which is wrapped in the filling of two flavors of bean paste and sesame sauce, you can feel it, the roll skin does not add messy things, because there is really no taste, but to say that it is made of pure milk, but there is no milk flavor, half of which is delicious with the sweet taste of bean paste, but the other half with the taste of sesame sauce has a sense of dark cuisine, extremely incompatible. Maybe the simple bean paste milk roll will taste better.
"Pure milk cake" is a square milk cake made of the tasteless roll skin outside the double milk roll, the feeling of the entrance is really too weak, it is better to drink milk directly, whether it is taste or taste is only worth 1 star, look at the healthy no additives, barely add points.

5, delicious
(Address: Building 5, Zhengxinyuan District, Songjiazhuang Zhengxinyuan District, Fengtai District, Beijing)
The same is a classic Western-style pastry in Beijing, although it is not as good as Hollywood's chain throughout the country, but the standard of the two is still comparable.
As Hollywood's signature item, "Semi-Cooked Cheese" is no less delicious than Watomei, with a strong cheese flavor and a soft, tender cake with zero flaws.
The "Double Cheesecake" full of filled cream makes the cheesecake taste more plump and a little sweeter than half-cooked cheese.
"Wife cake" skin texture is hard, there is very little filling, I personally prefer the feeling of thin skin and large filling, so it feels less delicious than fairy bean cake and mung bean cake.

7. A hundred years of righteousness
(Address: No. 1-13, Courtyard, No. 10, You'anmennei Street, Xicheng District, Beijing)
Although the fame of other regions is not so great, it is not inferior to the existence of Daoxiang Village in Beijing, which is also a chinese time-honored brand that focuses on traditional Chinese dim sum, and in the eyes of many old Beijings, the sentiment of many classic items of the century-old Yili is even more deeply rooted than that of Daoxiang Village.
"Fruit bread" old bread with preserved fruits and nuts, as the post-80s generation really have no resistance to this taste. It is said that fruit bread and vitamin bread are as far as possible to the store to buy wax paper packaging, because this is a pure handmade old recipe, online and supermarkets with plastic paper packaging is assembly line products, materials and production processes have been out of shape.
The simple version of "vitamin bread" fruit bread is simply the taste of old bread, and it is the kind of old bread that is particularly willing to put eggs, which is completely different from the milk aroma in Western-style pastries.
The original aroma of "multigrain cake", the acid of cranberries, and the sweetness of raisins are a reasonable and brilliant combination.
"Lava Cake" is the new signature of the century-old Yili, cocoa powder is bitter, but the outer cake is sweet, and the contrast of this taste makes the overall taste of the cake particularly rich.
"Sugar alcohol seaweed cake" since eating Master Bao's meat pine shellfish, it has lost resistance to seaweed pastries, and although the new product of Centennial Yili is much simpler in material, but the taste blend is very reasonable, the sweetness of the cake is just right, the faint fresh fragrance of seaweed will not dominate, there is no calorie bonus of meat floss and salad dressing, and it is not so guilty to eat, which is the most respected item in this shop.
