Itinerary

  • Nanluoguxiang (Pass By)

    Start your foodie adventure at Nanluoguxiang, one of Beijingā€™s most famous hutongs, brimming with iconic local delicacies. Meet your English-speaking guide and set off on a culinary journey through 1.5 miles (2.5 km) of historic alleyways. Immerse yourself in the rich history of the area while enjoying delicious stops to taste authentic local flavors.

  • N/A (Pass By)

    Running for over 100 years, this hidden restaurant specializes in ē…Žé„¼ęžœå­, a dish traditionally enjoyed with family during cold winter mornings to celebrate togetherness and warmth. Made fresh to order, they are eaten like a wrap to symbolize unity and wholeness in family bonds.

  • An Ding Gate (Pass By)

    When Beijingers crave noodles, thereā€™s only one dish that comes to mind: Zhajiangmian, often called ā€œBeijing Noodlesā€ because no other dish compares. Visit a century-old eatery to taste their made-from-scratch noodles, crafted with a secret recipe passed down through generations.

  • N/A (Pass By)

    Peking Duck comes in two styles, both typically served with fresh condiments and wrapped in chewy pancakes. The crispy exterior and tender interior pair perfectly with refreshing pickled vegetables, creating a bite thatā€™s pure bliss for your taste buds. Additionally, thereā€™s Douzhi (fermented mung bean drink) and Jiaoquan (crispy fried rings), a classic combo loved by locals and a must-try for anyone visiting Beijing. But be warnedā€”the unique taste of Douzhi might be an acquired one! Are you ready to take the challenge?

  • Bell and Drum Towers (Pass By)

    Tucked away in a small alley, this hidden gem offers a unique and intimate community dining experience. It serves traditional hotpot in copper pots filled with a clear, flavorful broth that lets the quality ingredients shine. Thinly sliced mutton and beef are cooked in seconds and paired with a rich sesame paste dipping sauce. Donā€™t forget to grab a pint of the local drink to complete the experience!
