what should I eat when I come to Beijing? There are countless delicious foods in Beijing. Needless to say, roast duck and instant-boiled mutton, which are rich in Beijing characteristics, are also leveraged ~

First, instant-boiled mutton in old Beijing

When it comes to Beijing food, many people first think of roast duck. Roast duck is representative and famous. But when a Beijinger who can eat talks about his own home cooking, he is sure to belong to instant-boiled mutton! It is not uncommon for relatives and friends to get together, have a drink with friends, and eat roast duck together, but the probability is quite small. Rinsing hot pot is much more common. Therefore, when eating in Beijing, instant-boiled mutton should not be missed anyway. It's best to catch up with winter. When the weather is in the middle of winter and the twelfth month, the world is at a loss outside the window, and the snow like goose feathers is falling, and the room is steaming, calling friends and friends, which makes people happy and satisfied.

Introduce several delicious hotpot restaurants in Beijing:

1. Jubaoyuan

I personally recommend Jubaoyuan. This restaurant doesn't seem to have been mentioned in the travel notes. Jubaoyuan is located in niujie, Xicheng District, a little south of niujie intersection of Guang 'anmennei Street, and west of it. Niujie is a Muslim settlement in Beijing, and proper Muslim slaughter is carried out by full-time imams, paying attention to it. Beijingers also generally believe that beef and mutton bought in niujie is cleaner and more authentic.

the authentic instant-boiled mutton pays attention to the charcoal copper pot. There is an alcohol pot with one hand, which looks small and exquisite, and seems to be more in line with the concept of hygiene, but eating Beijing instant-boiled mutton with this is not a "taste". Clear soup, sesame sauce ingredients (coriander, chopped green onion, chives, bean curd with soy sauce, marinated shrimp oil, sesame), mutton, louver, cabbage, frozen bean curd, wide flour, sesame seed cake, and sugar garlic (to relieve boredom). The meat should be fresh and tender, cut as thin as snowflakes by hand, cooked with chopsticks, and melted at the entrance.

jubaoyuan's mutton and sesame seed cakes are really amazing, but the valuable thing is that the prices are not expensive.

2. Wash meat on the kiln platform

No.12 Taoranting Road, Xuanwu District, the north gate of Taoranting Park is west and the road is south. The above-mentioned great harmony is not described in detail. In short, the taste is well-known and the price is acceptable to the public. Yaotai also has a branch, but I think it's authentic.

3. south gate hotpot

proper name: Hongyuan south gate hotpot. South Gate refers to the South Gate of the Temple of Heaven, because this store was first opened outside the South Gate of the Temple of Heaven Park, and now there is a semicolon in a good position in Houhai. Beijing people used to know it well, but now their reputation is growing, and many netizens know it more and more. His home is in a good location, around the scenic spots. For many travelers, kill two birds with one stone and save time.

4. Xiao Liu washes fresh meat

This one is interesting. No.12, Lazhu Hutong, Hufangqiao, Xuanwu District. Lazhu Hutong, does this name sound delicious:) In the Hutong, you will pass Lao Liu to rinse meat on the way, so don't hesitate to go inside. Grassroots, good quality and low price. If you want to bring the whole family, there is no need to find this place. It is suitable for one or two people's deep experience. You must eat hand-cut fresh meat, which is the authentic taste of old Beijing.

But I was very disappointed. Just after sitting down, the waiter asked us if we wanted the bottom of the clear soup pot or spicy or Yuanyang pot. This is very untrue. Authentic old Beijing hotpot is the bottom of a clear soup pot. Spicy that's Sichuan hot pot. Make it neither fish nor fowl, which must be criticized.

Let's get to the point. Let's talk about the meat here. The fresh meat is 2 yuan a plate, regardless of the location. The price is quite affordable. The taste and taste of meat is the second among the fresh meats I have eaten in Beijing. First, it has to be an unnamed hotpot restaurant in You 'anmen. That's much better than the south gate hotpot. Those famous shops all go to eat fame, and this kind of small shop really comes to eat meat. If you are a carnivore, don't miss it here. Be sure to eat fresh meat. Is it delicious or not?

There are also some good stores, such as Laowu Shuan rou, Laoqiying Shuan rou, Yangfang Shuan rou, etc. They all have a good reputation on the Internet, with different tastes, which are generally good. If friends catch up with the nearest meal, they can also enjoy authentic Beijing instant-boiled mutton.

There are many good restaurants for instant-boiled mutton in Nancheng, so the dining environment should not be demanding. Often, with the environment, there is no street fun around the stove. As for Donglaishun, I don't recommend it. It's not bad, but with these authentic and affordable stores, why spend a lot of money for a name? And Donglaishun is divided into self-operated stores and franchise stores, and the quality is also different.

Second, Beijing Roast Duck

Roast duck has become a symbol of Beijing's diet. It is said that Kissinger must eat roast duck every time he goes to Beijing. Old George W. Bush, who rode a 28-car around the world in Beijing Hutong, was addicted to it. At the golden wedding banquet in 1995, George H.W. Bush also featured roast duck.

some friends can't appreciate roast duck, and think it's too oily, which makes sense. Fortunately, it is acceptable not to eat it every day, taste it occasionally, and put aside the concept of health. Besides, we can also eat culture and history from it.

Liang Shiqiu wrote in Yashe's talk about eating: "Beiping is bitter and dry, not a fertile place for duck production, but Tongzhou, which is close at hand, has a canal, and the canals and ponds are staggered, which is especially suitable for raising ducks. Good species are all pure white, but wild ducks and ducks are not the best choice. When the ducks are transported from Tongzhou to Peiping, they still need to be fattened. Knead sorghum and other feeds into a round strip, which is thicker than ordinary sausage hot dogs and about four inches long. The duck master in Tongzhou grabbed a duck and put it between his legs, so that he couldn't move. He broke the duckbill with his hand.

use thick and long pieces of food dipped in water to force them in. Ducks can't make any noise when they want to bark, only blink. After stuffing it into the mouth, stroke the duck's neck tightly with your hand and squeeze the things into the duck's stomach. After filling in a few, I saw that I would burst my belly if I filled in more, and then I let go and put the duck in a small shed that was dark. Hundreds of ducks are locked together, like sardines, and there is no room for activity, just try to give water to drink. It's been closed for several days, and it's necessary to be fat every day, so it's called duck stuffing. On the one hand, the variety of ducks is good, and on the other hand, the master's skill is high, so duck filling is unique to Beiping. During the Anti-Japanese War, a restaurant in the rear tried to fill ducks, and one third of them died. Those who didn't die were neither skinny nor very fat, which I saw with my own eyes. Ducks must be fat, and fat is tender. "

Using these materials and unique craftsmanship is the difference between a duck in a famous shop near 2 yuan and a duck in a street shop that costs tens of dollars. Although many Beijingers don't eat Quanjude all their lives, just like Hangzhou people don't have to go to the building outside to be jealous of fish. But as a traveler, it's better to savor the authentic ingredients. When you're here, there's no need to explore the dragon and forget the pearls.

there is no ranking here, because it is almost the same.

There is a saying that foreigners eat roast duck and Quanjude in Beijing, foreigners eat roast duck and Dadong in Beijing, and Beijingers eat roast duck and Jiuhuashan in Beijing.

Jiuhuashan Roast Duck

Located on the 1st-2nd floor of Ziyu Hotel, No.55 Zengguang Road, Haidian District, a duck costs 168 yuan. You have to pay for cake, sauce and cucumber separately, but the duck is delicious, and the mustard duck's paw is delicious. The taste of roast duck is definitely not worse than that of Quanjude, but the price is more affordable.

Some friends only know that Quanjude, Dadong and Jiuhuashan are really good choices for eating roast duck, although some Beijingers still don't know the name of Jiuhuashan. "Duck King" was once famous, and there were many branches, but its momentum has gradually weakened recently. Quanjude has a good reputation, does not worry about business, and frequently meets the team, so it has the phenomenon of poor hospitality and bullying customers. I also don't think it's necessary to take Quanjude and join in the fun.

Dadong Roast Duck Restaurant

Dongsi Store has a good environment, located on the 1st-2nd floor of Nanxincang International Building, No.22 Dongsishitiao, Dongcheng District; Tuanjiehu Store is very popular, building 3, Tuanjiehu Estuary, Chaoyang District (southeast of Changhong Bridge). The dishes are fine and expensive.

Cheap Square

is another sect. Beijing roast duck is divided into two schools: stewing and hanging, and cheap square is the representative of stewing roast duck school. There is no naked flame in roast duck, so it is said that it is easy to produce carcinogens when roasted with naked flame.

As for which taste is better, people have different opinions. Let's experience it for ourselves. In fact, it's almost the same. What can we eat if we don't believe in the old brands?

Liqun Roast Duck Restaurant, which is widely rumored on the Internet, is famous for being on "Amazing Earth" of National Geographic Channel. Word of mouth from netizens, promoting that they don't advertise, I think it's just an alternative means of management. The more people are willing to find out, the more narrow and secluded the place is. Nowadays, the minority seems to show its taste more and more: it's up to you to go or not.

Say a few more words to experienced travelers: If you have eaten Peking Duck or even eaten it many times and are interested in further exploration, you might as well try something different. It is said that the roast duck in the Listening Hall of the Summer Palace is prepared with traditional Chinese medicine and has another flavor. Another example is the roast duck in Hongbin Building, the first floor of halal, which is unique in halal style and worth tasting.

Third, Beijing's time-honored brands

Many people have never eaten Beijing's time-honored brands. Most of the time-honored brands are state-owned, and many details such as service and decoration are not keeping pace with the times. Many old brands have gone through catastrophe, and the state-owned enterprises that master them are bureaucratic and enterprising, but I still want to believe in the vitality of our old brands. The famous dishes and delicacies with unique style can be passed down from generation to generation.

I'm sure I won't miss you by picking a few that I've experienced. Ranked in no particular order.

1. Tongheju

Tongheju ranks first among the "Eight Great Houses in Beijing". "Eight Great Houses"-Tongheju, Shaguoju, Taifengju, Wanfuju, Yangchunju, Dongxing, Fuxing and Guangheju. Most of them are withered, and it seems that only Tongheju and Shaguoju are left. There are many restaurants in Shandong in old Beijing. Tongheju tastes mellow, and I think it is worth trying. Three-non-sticky, imperial concubine chicken, stewed mullet eggs, three-white steamed bread and baked steamed bread are the housekeeping dishes of the same family.

As for the price, the per capita consumption is about that of 1 yuan, which is normal at today's consumption level: the comic dialogue joke "The Art of Naming" by the old man Ma Sanli mentioned cohabitation: "Where can I eat when I am engaged? Cohabitation! Be of one mind and live together forever; Divorce, where to eat? Eat steamed stuffed bun, the dog ignores it. "

address: No.71, Yuetan South Street, Sanlihe, Xicheng District.

2. Casserole House

Casserole House is conveniently located in the center of Beijing. Casserole series, especially casserole white meat, Jiuzhuan large intestine and so on, are the most famous, and desserts such as almond tofu are also highly respected. With tongheju, both belong to the Shandong cuisine series, and the dishes are also similar, such as the three-non-sticky and bad-fried series.

Address: No.6, Xisi South Street, Xicheng District (near Gangwa City)

3. Hongbin Building

Muslim Restaurant, one of the eight buildings in Beijing, is the "highest reception place for Muslim wedding banquets". I have exquisite Hui friends, and the wedding banquet must be held in Hongbin Building. Braised oxtail is a signboard, rotten but not scattered, thin but not firewood. Sauté ed scattered Dan, braised hoof

tendon, grilled meat strips, kung pao shrimp, and candied fruit (diners who know how to eat can pronounce these three words, sugar, rolling is pronounced as "rising tone" and fruit is pronounced as "gu") are all fine products, and the price is small and expensive. The "state-run" style. More wedding banquets, if you want to go, pay attention to stagger the rush hour.

Address: No.11, Exhibition Hall Road, Xicheng District (at the intersection of Baiwanzhuang)

4. Jinyang Restaurant

Shanxi flavor. "Crispy duck", "oily meat" and "Daoxiao Noodles" are signs. I recommend this place because the pasta here is very good. Northerners love pasta. To be fair, it seems that there are not many really good noodle restaurants in Beijing. Southern friends can't appreciate pasta, but when they come to Beijing, I advise you to try it, because this is the real tour, isn't it?

Jinyang Restaurant is also the former residence of Ji Xiaolan. You can visit for free after dinner. In front of the door, a Gu Teng covered with thick shade was planted by Ji Xiaolan himself. At that time, Mr. Lao She often came here to admire Gu Teng's golden breeze, leaving a seven-line poem: "Hump bear's paw can't boast, the cat's ear plucks the fish, and there are four fragrant springs, and the wisteria flowers are ten feet in front of the court."

In retrospect, it may be a good thing that Jinyang Restaurant occupied Ji Xiaolan's former residence. After all, the diners who come and go keep the popularity of Yuewei Caotang, which is much better than being left out in front of Mao Dun's former residence and Mei Lanfang's former residence. What's more, all the men, old and young, who went to Jinyang Restaurant knew the name of Ji Xiaolan.

Address: No.241 West Street, zhushikou

5, Fengzeyuan Restaurant

No.83 West Street, zhushikou, not far from Jinyang Restaurant. Shandong cuisine famous shop, its onion-roasted sea cucumber can be described as a gold medal, unparalleled in the world, and it is difficult for the whole country to match it. To what extent are cattle? Fengzeyuan said that the annual sales revenue of this dish reached 1 million, accounting for almost 3% of the total business.

such a brand is naturally worth a lot. The sea cucumber dishes in Fengzeyuan Restaurant range from several hundred yuan to several thousand yuan. It is suggested that we try it with ample conditions. Friends who don't want to waste money can change their families and make other choices. I thought we must not come here and don't order sea cucumbers. Then why did we come to Fengzeyuan?

Finally, the barbecue season is not recommended. It is in the core area of Houhai, next to the Yinding Bridge. It has a good location and an old font size. It can also be sent to the boat. This advantage is a good business. As a result, it is a fan who does not worry about buyers. I don't go at dinner time at a time. I can only order whatever I want, and I am disappointed.

Fourth, Beijing's special diet

(1) Sheep scorpion

Sheep scorpion is a food in old Beijing, and it is named after its ingredients are taken from the spine of sheep and look like scorpions. Eating is still a hot pot routine.

1. Man Peng Xuan

No.15, Taoyuan Dongli, Dongcheng District,

that is, the auxiliary road of South Second Ring Road, south of Lu. He Nanmen Shuan rou is a boss. There are many people who pursue his family, and the roadside is full of cars at night. It tastes good, and the affordable price is the main reason. It is recommended to eat the most expensive pot when you come here. The meat is rich and tender, otherwise it will be full of bones. Sheep and scorpions are generally salty, and the more you eat them, the more salty you have to drink a lot of water. Maybe it's not salty, so the taste is not enough ... After eating scorpions, it's a standard way to eat noodles in the pot, and the taste of thick soup is boiled into the noodles. I have also eaten sheep scorpions in other cities, and the taste is not good.

2. Shanshuijian

There are shops in Zhengyang Building of Yangqiao in the South Third Ring Road and the northeast corner of Longtan Lake Park. The taste is still good, so I don't want to go into details.

There are many yangxiezi chains in Beijing, but I don't quite agree with them, probably because I didn't leave a deep impression after eating them once. Maybe the store I happened to catch up with was not good enough to make me generalize, but I still don't recommend it.

(2) Braised fire

Braised fire is a pure thing in old Beijing, a typical common food. I have never seen anyone eating it outside Beijing.

Braised small intestine is also called braised small intestine, which comes from the court's "Su Zao rou." It is said that in Guangxu period, because the price of Suzhou-made meat cooked with pork belly was expensive, the folk used pig's head meat and water instead, and over time, it created a pot-stewed fire.

cut the tic-tac-toe knife with fire, cut the tofu into triangles, chop small pieces of small intestine and lung head, scoop a spoonful of old soup from the pot and pour it into the bowl, and then add some garlic paste, Chili oil, bean curd and chives. What you care about when cooking in brine and burning in fire is that you should wash it in the water, and you should < P > noodles when burning in fire. These two can't be done, or they have an odor, or they are cooked by fire and can't be eaten. The fire should be thorough but not sticky, and the meat is rotten but not bad. Among them, the most heavy taste is the small intestine, which is soft and thick, and occasionally a piece of white meat is full of fat. But people with a light mouth will find the soup mouth very salty.

Many small restaurants sell braised pork, but the famous one is Xiaochangchen.

Xiaochangchen's old shop is located at the east exit of South Hengdong Street, Hufang Road, and has been demolished. Each store is opened by its own family after separation, not a chain. Most of them are small shops, and several Xiaochangchen restaurants opened by her daughter are large in scale, and < P > casserole stewed, stewed hot pot and all kinds of stir-fried dishes are also introduced. Stewed and burned, the bowl should be eaten.
