As a traditional food, Beijing Zongzi has its own advantages because of its different production methods and tastes. It's a big test to find the best one. However, there are already several well-known zongzi shops in Beijing, which are still highly sought after by diners.
First of all, introduce the most famous zongzi brand in old Beijing-"Majiapu in Old Beijing". This zongzi shop has been in business for several decades, and has been rated as one of the top ten famous foods in Beijing in many evaluations. Zongzi is mainly based on traditional Beijing flavors, such as pork dumplings, red bean paste dumplings and glutinous rice gourds, which are very popular among elderly diners and local citizens.
Secondly, there is a "Home Goose Steamed Pancake Shop" that was once popular because of the popularity of the Internet, featuring "Goose Liver Dumplings with Blueberry Sauce" and "Xinjiang Raisin Mutton Dumplings", which is delicious and highly sought after by young people because of its novel flavor and rich taste.
Finally, I recommend a small brand of rice dumplings-"The Forbidden City Sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice dumplings". Designers from the Institute of Scientific Instruments of the Forbidden City are combined with glutinous rice dumplings according to the culture of the Forbidden City. Different from the traditional taste, jujube paste and osmanthus are used as fillings, and the taste is refreshing and not greasy, which is quite distinctive.
The three zongzi shops recommended above have their own advantages, no matter in taste, packaging or marketing. If you want to taste the most authentic zongzi in Beijing, here will be your best choice.
