Fulou Group entered China in 1999 and has now developed into a catering group covering multiple types and facing high, medium and low consumption levels. Located at the top of the pyramid is the Fulou French Restaurant at No. 18 Xiaoyun Road, which can be regarded as the originator of Beijing French cuisine. In addition, there are many sub-cards of Fulou Bislo, Fulou Pot Ding, Miam Miam Mimi Mifu What the hell is going on? Come with me to see.

Specialty: Beijing's historic French restaurant.
In 2021, the first shot of the restaurant week was selected, and the Fu Lou, which was the first in the list of food to be pulled. Heaven is not beautiful, catching up with the rare spring rain in Beijing, and catching up with the weekend evening peak, only praying for this terribly difficult meal along the way, can not waste my hard work.
environment
Next door is XiaoyunYuan, the two families share a parking lot, because of the dark sky and rain, only notice the warm orange light in the large windows of the Fu Lou, ignoring the supposedly spectacular Roman colonnade.
As soon as you enter the door, you first notice the beautiful and elegant mosaic floor tiles on the ground, and then you are warmed by the charming light reflected on the long bar counter directly opposite.
The lobby is golden, the floor is a fishbone-shaped spliced floor, the wall is a large oil painting decorated with gold picture frames, vintage chandeliers, green leather sofas, white tablecloths, black vest waiters, indeed create a little French local high-end restaurant atmosphere.
serve
The service is not too attentive, and the removal of the plate and the change of tableware are also very timely. The restaurant's weekly menu is pre-selected, and you only need to do one of the two, so the service is fast.
However, in the end, the waiter called Coluly a coke cake, which seemed slightly unprofessional. In addition, the crimson skirt of the girls always reminds me of the waiter's outfit of a state-owned hotel.
Food Tips
Restaurant weekly menus are specially customized, some friends who have chased the restaurant week for many years complained about the lack of sincerity of this spring menu, but as the originator of The restaurant that wants to experience Beijing French cuisine, the budget is not high, and the spring and autumn two seasons of restaurant week is definitely a good opportunity.
[Pre-dinner bread], outstanding is this small piece of truffle butter. There are three kinds of bread, bag, bag, fruit multigrain bread slices, belonging to the typical European model, the taste is slightly harder. It was still hot, and the truffle butter was thickly smeared on it, and the aroma was fragrant.
[Tapas] is a snack that is regularly given away by French restaurants. The day was pumpkin mousse with broccoli puree. The green broccoli puree and a little nut on the crisps, the waiter specially introduced, there is a hint of coolness, is a delicious unique taste.
Head plate
[Arugula salad, fresh shrimp, grapefruit apple cider vinegar juice], this salad is very ordinary, the shrimp is very small, it is worth mentioning that the sauce is excellent, sweet and sour and grapefruit flesh.
["Lujie" foie gras batch, seasonal jam and hawthorn], I ordered the first plate, and chose one of the three major dishes of French cuisine, foie gras (the other two are caviar and truffles). The whole piece of foie gras is made into a fried foie gras, and the foie gras batch is made of foie gras into a sauce and then processed into a uniform cube, which is made with jam to fish. The portion size is not small, but I have to say that at the end of the meal, there is still some fishy smell left in the mouth.
main course
[Pan-fried beef belly, mashed potatoes with black pepper juice], the main course is beef selected from fish and beef. Seven-minute cooked beef side belly meat, the side cut color is very beautiful, let people appetite. Side dishes are mashed potatoes and fried vegetables, and if black pepper is needed, the waiter will add it on the spot with an oversized grinder. The texture of the beef flank belly is relatively soft, but there is fascia, which affects the taste.
[150g Australian meat eye steak, foie gras, black pepper juice], compared to the Australian naked eye is more delicious. The roast is excellent, 5 minutes cooked in a state of tenderness on the outside and tender on the inside, and the taste is richer than the beef belly.
Dessert
[Mille-feuille pastry, vanilla cream, raspberry cream], French dessert is the queen of the dessert world. The package is a choice of mille-feuille and ice cream, and I like all kinds of puff pastry, so I chose this one. The presentation is very French, and the raspberry cream is also very seasonal. Taste a bite, found that there are still many problems, the first is too sweet, this is a common disease of many European desserts; the second is that the puff pastry part seems to be a little damp, not crisp enough without taste.

Fu Lou Yi Mian is located opposite Starbucks Selection in the south district of China World Mall, with a slender restaurant layout, and the light is a little dim and warm.
Many diners are old customers, and even children can familiarize themselves with orders. At the entrance, a variety of handmade pasta made in the shop are displayed, which instantly stimulates the appetite. The spices displayed in the two cabinets can be bought and taken away, but it is difficult to reproduce the taste of the store when you go home.
A few small handsome men service is too rough, and then a girl is very thoughtful, add tableware and water, completely do not need us to communicate to understand our various needs, much better than the fulou main card to charge 10% service fee of the high-pressure restaurant.
[Pre-dinner bread], sliced baked nut baguettes, with thick vinaigrette, in fact, the appetite is small and nearly half full.
appetizer
[Chicken Caesar Salad]. The ingredients are very rich, a few eggs are soft and semi-cooked cores, and the vegetables are handled very cleanly.
[Olive tomato oil braised shrimp squid with basil], a dish of red hot fire. The shrimp are not large, and they are stewed with olive oil and fresh tomato oil along with squid rings and toasted bread cubes, which makes the stomach very appetizing.
[Australian eye steak 150g, crispy fries], a small portion of steak, five points cooked, soft and hard, easy to chew. All are Australian naked eyes, and indeed the main card is more delicious.
Ask the waiter to sprinkle some fresh mushroom black pepper and pour it with the gravy next to it, and the flavor will be rich; the side dish is grilled vegetables and French fries. The vegetables were delicious, and the finger radishes and bell peppers were sweet.
[Signature pasta with meat sauce, basil, parmesan cheese], be sure to sprinkle more parmesan cheese crumbles, handmade pasta is the restaurant's main product, the taste is indeed not bad.
[Seafood risotto], a whole beautiful Leku color enamel pot moved up, or very spectacular. Thin slices of ham add a lot of spice to this dish. The risotto made from two kinds of rice is soft and hard, and the fried prawns and squid are the main ingredients. Western dishes have no pictures, do not know the method, it is easy to order "repetition", risotto, pasta and appetizers are used in tomatoes, the taste is too close.

As a first-class French food brand in Beijing, Fulou's status is unquestionable. Whether it is from the decoration, style or price, coupled with the brand blessing of the French group, fulou stands on the tip of the pyramid. The average dining guest, like me, has some "come and see what's going on" mentality. But there is no shortage of good restaurants in Beijing, and there are not many high-quality Western foods that can be replaced at the same price. The main card of Fulou only belongs to the category of "it is good to experience".
Many of the sub-brands under Fulou have different characteristics and are more suitable for mass consumption. Compared with the Fu Lou Department, I actually prefer TRB and its hulu, Peach and other sub-cards. For example, "The Best French Restaurant in Beijing at the Zhizhu Temple in Beijing, Do You Guess What Do You Eat for a Brunch of 600 Per Capita?" "Beijing Sanlitun this newly opened European-style simple meal, not only high value, per capita as long as 80 yuan."》
