As the saying goes, "Food is the only thing that matters". Nowadays, eating is not only a way to fill up your stomach, but also represents a kind of food culture. In the past two years, based on the transformation of the Beijing urban area, a "food street" has appeared. These food streets represent a different culture, and have become a new highlight of the capital's catering industry.

The Asian Games Village dining industry in the northern part of the capital is the most developed, which Huizhong Road and Datun Road restaurants are particularly numerous. In the evening, the business here is especially booming. Not only do some low- and mid-range restaurants need to wait in line for a table, but even some high-end restaurants are packed.

Strong selectivity characterizes the dining scene in this area, with stores at all levels offering everything from high-grade bird's fin soup to popular northeastern cuisine. For example, the Northeast Tiger Restaurant on Huizhong Road and Meizhou Dongpo Restaurant on Datun Road are among the more popular restaurants. And there are quite a few restaurants for upscale banquets, such as the Four Seas Hyatt on Datun Road and so on.

At the same time, the restaurant's high "renewal rate" is another major feature, and there are often stores that change their signboards. Competition is fierce here. But old favorites like Shuang Sheng Yuan and Donghai Fishing Harbor are still solid.
