There are many kinds of local snacks in Beijing. Today, @万talkBeijing (if you like it, follow it) will give you some of your favorite snacks, which are full of old Beijing characteristics!

1. Fried Cake There are always people queuing up in front of a restaurant southwest of the Hufangqiao intersection. It is Jingtianhong Fried Cake, which is known as the only one in Beijing.

It is a time-honored brand and has no franchise stores. No wonder the business is booming.

It dares to be called the only one. The fried cake is golden in color, with a thin sticky rice skin, and full of red bean filling. Good filling is the key. The bean paste filling comes in a big pot, and it is really impressive!

Take a bite of the steaming hot red bean filling, and the crispy exterior will make a crunchy sound, while the steaming red bean filling inside will be dense and sweet.

The skin is thin, dense, soft and waxy. This kind of skin has a crispy surface and is well sealed without oil, so it doesn't taste greasy and won't be too dry. The moisture inside is locked, so the filling is very soft and waxy.

Great work!

It was a real pleasure to eat~!

The queue at this restaurant is not ambiguous. There are often a long queue of almost 50 people, and it is outdoors, so it can be a bit challenging during the hot summer and cold weather.

Fortunately, the fried cakes come out of the pan very quickly, and the chef quickly fills the pan with fillings and stuffs them all in one go, so the queue time is only 20 minutes.

Many customers buy 20 or 30 pieces.

Jingtian Red Restaurant (Hufangqiao Branch) Address: No. 7 Hufangqiao (near the Workers Club) Business hours: 6:30-19:30 Monday to Sunday 2. Mutton Skewers Electric grilled mutton skewers at the entrance of the old Xi'an restaurant.

It has been in business for more than 20 years, and there are diners passing by queuing up every day.

The marinated large pieces of mutton are simmered in a special electric oven for a while. When taken out, they are charred on the outside and tender on the inside. They are equally fat and lean. It’s so fragrant!

I started eating it for 2 yuan per skewer and have been eating it for more than ten years. Now it costs 10 yuan per skewer.

The money has gone up, but there isn’t much meat, and the taste hasn’t changed.

Queuing up right in front of the old Xi'an restaurant takes 20-30 minutes, and you can eat it in just 10 minutes if it's freshly baked.

In addition, you can also go into the restaurant and order a bowl of mutton steamed buns, and sit and wait for the electric grilled mutton skewers to come out of the oven.

Address of Old Xi'an Restaurant (Xinjiekou South Street Branch): No. 20, Xinjiekou South Street (opposite to Xinjiekou Shopping Mall) 3. Garlic Pork Scallops The Beijing dish of garlic cloves with sauce has been popular for 37 years. It is a restaurant only known to old Beijing!

This restaurant is very famous. The most famous signature dish is the must-try garlic pork elbow. For carnivores, it’s so delicious that it will make you cry. It’s so delicious!

A whole elbow, cut into slices with the elbow meat on the big bone, stewed very well, and the sauce is soy sauce, garlic vinegar, which is appetizing and relieves the greasiness. It is a must-have with white rice!

The recipe for sweet and sour pork ribs is also very homely. The sauce is dark brown and contains onions. It tastes great!

Yuebin Restaurant Address: No. 43, Cuihua Hutong (opposite the main entrance of the National Art Museum of China) 4. Douzhier is the one with the Beijing flavor, but it is really hard to find.

In the alley on the east side of the road, 150 meters north of the north gate of the Temple of Heaven.

It closes at 10 a.m. every day, and many elderly people line up to drink. The taste is richer and richer.

There are various legends about Douzhier, dark cuisine, and biohazards circulating in the world.

Bean juice is soaked in mung beans until they can be twisted and peeled, then fished out, added with water and ground into a fine slurry, fermented, the starch that sinks to the bottom of the tank is the bean juice, and the starch that floats on the upper layer is the bean juice.

The fermented bean juice must be boiled with water in a large casserole, then mixed with the fermented bean juice and then boiled, then kept warm over low heat, and served as needed.

The color is gray-green and the taste is sour. Please drink up this bowl of sour water!

If it’s summer, you can sit on the table in front of the bean juice shop and enjoy the Beijing flavor in the open air.

Standing in the alley, watching the residents rushing around, and hearing the noise and shouts from nearby places, the breath of life comes to your face.

It seems that the soreness in my legs after standing in line for half an hour has disappeared ~ Yin Sandou Juice Address: No. 176 Dongxiao Street (in the alley on the east side of the road 150 meters north of the north gate of the Temple of Heaven) 5. The size of the sesame biscuits stuffed with meat is definitely not small

, baked in a special oven.

The elbow meat is freshly cut and packed, and it is generously packed. It costs 8 yuan a piece.

The meat sandwiched between the sesame cakes is elbow meat and sauced beef. Let the sauced meat cool, cut into thin and even slices, and sandwich it between the hot sesame cakes that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Take one bite and it will be delicious!

This sesame seed cake is really delicious. It has a crispy outer skin and is full of crumbs when you bite it. With the perfectly cut meat slices, the meat is full of flavor. The queue at this restaurant is not bad. In fact, you just sit at your seat and wait for the sesame seed pancake to come out of the oven.

It's satisfying to eat it hot on the spot (the sesame biscuits will be crispy when taken home), but you have to wait 25 minutes for them to come out of the oven.

Moreover, the location of the store is relatively remote and difficult to find, so it is still a bit difficult.
