Which stores have the most queues?
There is a saying in old Beijing: "Beijing's snacks are in Xuanwu, and Xuanwu's snacks are in Niujie." Going to the most delicious streets in Beijing and eating them from beginning to end, so I always choose a time every year to do what I want to do most, which is to go to Niujie.
I ate from beginning to end and fulfilled my wish. I was so full that I could walk on the wall!
The whole street is full of authentic snacks. It is a favorite street for old Beijingers. Here are some treasure shops with many queues and five-star reviews. Come and take a look!
1. Maji’s candied haws on a stick are all cored, beaten and sweet, and the rock sugar is freshly boiled. You can see the entire production process. It is clean and hygienic. It is worthy of being the best candied haws in Beijing.
There are all kinds: glutinous rice filling, strawberry, bean paste filling, yam sticks, walnut filling, etc. It closes at 7pm, so be sure to go early, otherwise many flavors will be sold out!
2. Yibao Lotus Leaf Steamed Cake is made from glutinous rice, red dates, and red beans steamed on an iron steamer. It is soft, glutinous, sticky, and slightly sweet, but not too sweet.
The taste of jujube is very strong and slightly bitter, but I heard that this is the favorite place for old Beijingers to eat!
Perhaps the most delicious steamed cake in Beijing is right here!
An oversized thermal bucket is filled with red date rice steamer cakes, which are glutinous and fragrant with the sweetness of red dates. Don’t miss it!
3. Hongji Snack Shop is also crowded with people, and there is a long queue waiting for the steamed buns to be baked.
The beef buns are super popular and almost everyone buys dozens of them, so you have to wait several times to get one.
The most worth eating restaurant in Niujie!
Snacks, staple foods, pastries, and stir-fries are all available!
You must eat the toothpick meat, super large pieces of mutton, sprinkled with sesame seeds, it tastes delicious and tempting!
The mutton and scallion buns are also delicious. The dough skin is very soft. Be careful when biting and there will still be gravy. 4. Baiji rice cakes. There are so many types of rice cakes, and their colorful appearance is dazzling.
Many of their snacks are very popular.
Donkey Rolling, highly recommended!
It is a long, soft and glutinous piece, with the surface covered with soybean flour, and the bean paste rolled inside is blown up. The bean paste is very delicate and solid, and the sweetness is just right without being greasy at all.
Aiwowo - It's like glutinous rice cakes with bean paste filling. The outer skin is very greasy. Many people recommend this pea yellow and sweet one. It has a refreshing and not greasy taste. You can taste the fine pea paste.
"Gangmi rice cake" is also a must-try item. It is layered with glutinous rice and bean paste, and finally covered with thick hawthorn cake. It looks ridiculously good!
The most important thing is that the taste is sweet but not greasy. The glutinous rice tastes different from the imagined glutinous rice. It has a distinct grainy texture, which is quite special.
5. Palace Crispy Beef Patties Recommendation: Beef Patties Baked Buns is a small store that sells a variety of delicious snacks. It is so happy to eat hot beef patties in the cold wind.
