Beijing Bound

I'm leaving on a jetplane this Monday. Any last minute suggestions as to where to eat and shop while in Beijing?

Also, what should I pack that I will not be able to find in China?

For Western style aspirin, cold rememdies, etc, try and find a WATSONs, a British run drug store. Usually located in/near the better hotels.
