Beijing Restaurant Reviews
China's economic boom has revolutionized dining culture in Beijing. Today you can eat a wide variety of regional cuisines, including unusual specialties from Yunnan, earthy Hakka cooking from southern China, Tibetan yak and tsampa (barley flour), numbingly spicy Sichuan cuisine, and chewy noodles from Shaanxi. The capital also offers plenty of international cuisine, including French, German, Thai, Japanese, Brazilian, Malaysian, and Italian, among others.
You can spend as little as $2 per person for a decent meal or $100 and up on a lavish banquet. The venues are part of the fun, ranging from swanky restaurants to holes-in-the-wall and refurbished courtyard houses. Beer is available everywhere in Beijing and many Chinese restaurants now have extensive wine menus.
