As the saying goes, "Food is the most important thing for people". Nowadays, eating means not only filling the stomach, but also representing a kind of food culture. In the past two years, on the basis of the transformation of Beijing urban area, a series of "gourmet commercial streets" have appeared. These food streets respectively represent a different culture and become a new highlight of the catering industry in Beijing.

1. Fucheng Road "Super Rice" Street

When it comes to eating abalone with swallows' wings, the most respectable thing is to go to Fucheng Road. Today's Fucheng Road, with a total length of about 3 kilometers from the space bridge of the West Third Ring Road in the east to the Dinghui Bridge of the West Fourth Ring Road in the west, has gathered dozens of well-known catering enterprises with local flavors such as Hangzhou cuisine, huaiyang cuisine cuisine, Hunan cuisine, Hubei cuisine and Sichuan cuisine. Every catering enterprise here has different styles and luxurious styles in decoration, ranging from exquisite carving to magnificent luxury; It has the simplicity of Chinese tradition and the elegance of western lines, and has become a famous high-end dining area in Beijing.

Located at the east entrance of the food street, "A Family under the World" embodies the combination of traditional culture and modern culture in its management characteristics, and integrates advanced ecological theory into its main traditional official dishes, forming a unique and innovative series of nourishing official dishes. The "Eco-catering Theory" advocated by Jiao Mingyao, the executive chef and gourmet master of this restaurant, makes delicious food and nutrition effectively balanced and becomes an important branch of official cuisine. Jin Yue, Lichang, shun feng and Hongziji, the famous Cantonese seafood restaurants, are also old-fashioned "seafood giants" in Beijing, with elegant and luxurious decoration and high prices, making them the first choice for business restaurant.

2. Huizhong Road in the Asian Games Village is the dominant restaurant in the north of Datun Road

The catering industry in the Asian Games Village is the most developed in the north of Beijing, especially in Huizhong Road and Datun Road. At night, the business here is particularly hot. Not only some middle and low-end restaurants need to wait for seats, but even some high-end restaurants are crowded.

strong selectivity is the characteristic of the catering industry in this area, from high-grade swallowtail abalone to popular northeast cuisine, there are shops at all levels. For example, the Northeast Tiger Restaurant on Huizhong Road and the Meizhou Dongpo Restaurant on Datun Road are more popular restaurants. There are also many high-end banquet restaurants, such as the Hyatt Regency on Datun Road.

At the same time, the "renewal rate" of restaurants is another major feature, and there are often shops that change their signboards. It can be seen that the competition here is quite fierce. However, established stores such as Shuangshengyuan and Donghai Fishing Port are still very stable.

3. Xiaoyun Road Petty bourgeoisie restaurant gathering place

Xiaoyun Road is located between Sanyuan East Bridge in the Third Ring Road and Xiaoyun Bridge in the Fourth Ring Road. It is a long street from southwest to northeast. Such an oblique street is rare in Beijing and belongs to an important traffic artery between the East Third Ring Road and the East Fourth Ring Road. There are many office buildings on both sides of the road, such as Jingxin Mansion, Modern Shengshi Mansion, Pengrun Mansion, Datong Mansion, Air China Mansion, and other high-end apartments such as Jingrun Water Garden Villa. Such a business place and bustling place is of course full of restaurants with various grades and tastes, mostly with exotic flavor. It is these exotic flavors, with their unique elegance and charming taste, that create the petty bourgeoisie sentiment of Xiaoyun Road.

On the night cloud road, there are many famous restaurants, but they are not too large in scale and are famous for their emotional appeal. For example, the small town of Lugang, the lemon leaves with Thai flavor, Faust who manages romantic French food and so on are widely rumored by petty bourgeoisie.

4. Lai Tai's up-and-coming food street

Turn left at the first intersection of Yansha Bridge and Dongliang Maqiao Road, and Qicai North Road, diagonally opposite the Women's Street, is a new food street in recent years-"Lai Tai Food Street". Surrounded by the third embassy district under construction and the Changpengrun Building in Laitai Flower Market, the newly repaired road is relatively smooth. There are nearly 21 restaurants in this area, and their dishes include Sichuan cuisine, Guangdong cuisine, Hunan cuisine, Hangzhou cuisine, xinjiang cuisine, Japanese cuisine, Korean cuisine, tea restaurants, cafes and even Lebanese flavor. Generally, the decoration level is high and the environment has its own characteristics. Except for a few, the per capita consumption mostly belongs to the middle level. This street is well planned, with parking spaces in front of every restaurant and parking lots in the backyard. It is a typical "rising star" food street. Although it was low-key, it soon became popular.

5. Guijie "A street that never sleeps, with an active slope"

Dongzhimen Guijie was the earliest food street in Beijing, and it was also the place where those "night owls" feasted late at night. Some old diners in Guijie described the scene when Guijie was most prosperous: "Everyone spat crayfish and sang songs until the early hours of the morning". Indeed, the diners who come to Guijie Street are mostly directed at "Ma Xie".

However, with the renovation of Guijie Street, many popular shops have moved away. Although Guijie Street has lost to the prosperity of that year, its popularity is still there. Today, there are still 41 or 51 restaurants in half Guijie Street. Several relocated restaurants near Dongkou, such as Tongle and Tianyi Pavilion, are still full of people at night.

6. The potential food street in Suzhou Street

Suzhou Street is a food street with unlimited potential in Zhongguancun area, which has been quietly waiting for it. Perhaps because IT is close to Zhongguancun, an IT business gathering place, most of the restaurants here are restaurants with some cultural connotations. The price and decoration are above the mid-range.

When it comes to cultural heritage, we have to mention several shops here, because they are all occupied houses in Yuefu Garden, which are antique. Lejia Yiyuan rented a house in Yuefu Garden. Mainly engaged in Cantonese cuisine and Hunan cuisine, seafood and Hunan cuisine stir-fry are very authentic. The other is Baijia Mansion Gate, which occupies the best part of Yuefu Garden in a good environment. When you walk into the house, there is a hole in the sky, and the pavilions and pavilions are flowing. High price, high-grade palace banquet, business meal can come here, more tasteful.

7. Ping 'an Street witnessed the history of the food street. After the transformation, the business of Ping 'an Street is not as hot as expected, but going straight from Dongsishitiao Bridge to the west, restaurants on both sides of the road are also next to each other, which is also very lively. Because it is close to the lotus market, many people like to have a good dinner on Ping 'an Avenue every night, and then turn into Houhai to enjoy a kind of comfort in those gentle bars.

Because many restaurants are built on the former sites of some palaces and houses, the dining on Ping 'an Street also has some historical charm. Gege House is one of them. Because it was the wedding residence given to Princess Rongshou Gulun by Empress Dowager Cixi in the Qing Dynasty, it has a strong historical color and cultural background, and specializes in various court stews, which is very distinctive. Beipinglou, which is close to Pinganli, is an old Beijing-style restaurant. If you want to eat fried tripe, bean juice and Zhajiang Noodles, you can eat them all here.

8. The popular food street in Fangzhuang

Some people say that the popularity of Fangzhuang food street benefited from the transformation of Guijie Street, and Jin Dingxuan, who was originally red and purple in Guijie Street, moved to Fangzhuang, driving the surrounding popularity. Actually, it's not entirely true. Fangzhuang Food Street has only become popular in recent years, mainly because of the construction of surrounding residential areas, and the supporting catering industry has also developed accordingly. The facilities are relatively complete, the street is wide, and the size of the store is not the same. The cuisines are particularly comprehensive and diverse, including Chinese food and western food. Although there is no scene of singing in Guijie Street every night, it may be because the level and overall atmosphere of the restaurant are higher than Guijie Street, and the climax here has already begun at lunchtime.

9. A street where time-honored brands gather in Qianmen

Qianmen Street is home to many time-honored hotels in Beijing. Just like the ups and downs that Zhengyangmen experienced, those time-honored hotels on Qianmen Street have experienced many vicissitudes, and the signboards in front of them confirm their long history. Although the popularity here is not as hot as other food streets, it represents the food culture in Beijing and is also a must-see place for foreigners to come to Beijing.

The century-old shops here include Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant, Duyidi steamed dumplings, soup dumplings on the first floor of Kaifeng, Laozhengxing Restaurant, Yitiaolong Restaurant, etc. All of them are time-honored brands over 111 years old, and their tastes are quite authentic.

11. Guang 'anmen spicy food street

Guang 'anmen food street starts from Liuli Bridge in the west and ends at Hufang Bridge in the east. This area is a food commercial street that rises with the transformation of Nancheng. Counting many shops in this street, it is not difficult to find that this food street is mainly spicy, such as the spicy temptation that mainly deals in Sichuan cuisine, Li Laodie, who is famous for spicy crabs in Beijing, and Tan Fish Head from Sichuan, etc. Some Muslim restaurants near niujie are also very popular. In addition, some old brands of Nancheng are also very easy to see in this street.
