What makes Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants a unique experience ?
Begin your foodie journey at Shichahai metro station, where you’ll meet your English-speaking guide ready to embark on a culinary adventure. Wander through 1.5 miles (2.5km) of Beijing’s historic hutong alleyways, soaking in the city’s past while taking delightful breaks to savor local bites.
This hidden gem offers rooftop views of Beijing’s historic bell tower and serves local hotpot in traditional copper pots and filled with a clear broth that highlights the quality ingredients. Thin slices of mutton and beef are quickly cooked in the pot and then dipped in a sauce made with sesame paste…plus grab a pint of local craft beer!
Run by a husband-wife team, this hidden restaurant specializes in spring pancakes, a dish traditionally enjoyed with family during Chinese New Year to celebrate the arrival of spring and a good harvest. Made fresh to order, they are eaten like a burrito and symbolize family reunion and togetherness.
When Beijingers want noodles, there’s only one dish we think about. In fact, we literally call it “Beijing Noodles” because all other noodle dishes are inferior. Visit the Yan family’s 100+ year old home, nestled deep inside a hutong courtyard, to try their made-from-scratch secret recipe.
