Beijing is a metropolis with first-class chefs and the most complicated diners in China. There is only Beijing you can't think of, and there is no Beijing you can't eat.

In addition to foreign food culture, old Beijing specialties such as Aiwowo, hairy belly, fried liver and snowballing are the most memorable. As the saying goes, "After the summer, there is no illness, and all three points are empty." It's the right time to visit Beijing in early autumn, see good things, eat something delicious, and put on autumn clothes for yourself. Come on, it's beautiful!

The day I arrived in Beijing, just in time for the autumn rain, the train entered the city, and I was suddenly startled by the gloomy weather. Fortunately, it is only early autumn, and this coolness is not invasive. Sure enough, there is a big difference between the north and the south, and even the air smells strange, as if I woke up overnight and went to another country. Perhaps because of its long history, Beijing gives people a quaint and nostalgic atmosphere. When you look up at the sky, you can feel the vicissitudes of life.

Self-help donkey friends must be very confused when they first arrive in Beijing, and they don't say where to find food. It takes a lot of brains just to find the way. But at the thought of those delicious foods waiting for me, all the depression and boredom disappeared. Eat more and get warm. Beijing, I'm coming!

South Tour of Beijing West Railway Station

Special snacks are caught in the net.

When I came out of Beijing West Railway Station, I immediately understood what is crowded. People's faces are cold and tired, and the two tall buildings standing opposite are almost the same as those in other cities. Not to mention these, today's first stop is Shichahai, one of the ten famous scenic spots in Beijing. Shichahai is the best preserved place in Beijing's old Beijing, and there are many palaces and gardens around it, such as the best preserved Gongwangfu and Drunken Mansion. This area is also the main commercial activity area in old Beijing. Soong Ching Ling's former residence and Guo Moruo's former residence are also next to Shichahai.

Besides the beautiful scenery, Shichahai is also the most complete place for snacks in Beijing. It is said that Jiumen Snack in the northwest of Shichahai is the most varied snack street. Famous snacks such as Yue Shengzhai, the fourth generation descendant of "Blowing the Stomach Feng", Feng Guangju, and "Tofu Brain" and "Sheep Head Horse Home" all set up stalls here ... In view of the temptation of delicious food, I rushed to Shichahai non-stop.

Autumn wind blows willows. At this time, the leaves of the willow beside Shichahai haven't completely fallen off. I have done my homework in advance and know that snack street is located in Xiaoyou Hutong on the west side of Soong Ching Ling's former residence, and there are signs introducing snack street at the lakeside and Hutongkou. Soon I found this narrow alley in Shichahai. The depth of the alley is not very long. You can see the hot air blowing from the entrance of Jiumen snack street at the entrance of the alley. By the way, it's hard to find a parking space here, and it's most convenient to walk.

"Time-honored brand" is the signboard of Jiumen snack street. Due to the transformation of residential buildings, when we step into the wooden threshold with Beijing characteristics, Beijing flavor immediately hits our faces. More than a dozen traditional time-honored brands, such as Xiaochangchen, Ruibinlou, Tripe, Rice Cake Money, Yueshengzhai and Milk Flavor, really can't eat enough for one stomach! There are over 300 kinds of traditional snacks in old Beijing. In addition, there are many kinds of extinct snacks, such as mung bean rolls, kidney bean rolls, kidney bean cakes, fried heads and steamed children. Busy snack chefs especially like to speak authentic Beijing dialect, which is now produced and sold. Guests can watch them make while eating, which is absolutely hygienic and fresh. The cook selling rice cakes is a chubby uncle. He told me that the unique flavor of Jiumen snacks is mainly because all the time-honored snacks here are handed down by themselves. In order to protect the signboard, everyone uses exquisite materials, works meticulously and pays attention to standards, so customers can eat with confidence.
