- Drum Tower (Gulou) Park - This hidden treasure offers rooftop views of Beijing’s historic bell tower and serves local hotpot in traditional copper pots filled with a clear broth that showcases 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 enjoy a pint of local craft beer!
- Nanluoguxiang - Operated by a husband-wife duo, 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.
- Mao’er Hutong No.45 Parking Lot - When Beijingers crave noodles, there’s only one dish that comes to mind. In fact, we literally call it “Beijing Noodles” because all other noodle dishes are considered inferior. Visit the Yan family’s 100+ year old home, nestled deep inside a hutong courtyard, to try their made-from-scratch secret recipe.

Great food tour with Winnie - Winnie was an amazing guide! Her bubbly personality really brought Beijing's foodie scene to life for us. Our 11-year-old said it was the best thing we did in Beijing. Thanks Winnie for a fantastic night.

Great way to try good food and meet fellow travelers - I really enjoyed this tour as a way to try new foods, learn about Beijing culture and meet some fellow travelers. All the food was great (and the beer and baijiu). Winnie was my guide for this tour. She was amazing at herding us around and explaining all the food and reaching us about local culture. It was great to see the Hutongs and the food was all really good. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Winnie as a guide! I also enjoyed meeting all of the people in our group.

Great intro to Beijing cuisine - I thought I was familiar with Chinese food until I joined this tour. Each stop was delicious and unique to Beijing cuisine. Our guide Winnie was very knowledgeable and a big foodie. Walking around the Hutongs was also very enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone’s first time to Beijing. Also, if you don’t eat fish/seafood, this tour is perfect as these are not featured.
Make sure you come hungry!

Amazing tour guide and package - Our tour guide was amazing and super knowledgeable. He was engaging, knew his history, spots, food, culture, venues and surrounding areas and so much more. Plus, he was a foodie himself so perfect fit for the job.

Fun & A Lot of Food - Our guide was solid and the tour was good. We hate more food than I was expecting, so bring an appetite if you take this tour.

Waste of time and energy. - Food was cheap and low quality. Walked long distances for below average food for the price. Not much description of the history or what we were eating or any other food options. Last of the 4 places was for Spring Injin pancake which we skipped because it was a 15 minutes walk from the 3rd venue and we had young kids. Definitely dont recommend. The breakfast was worth it. 4 out of 8 venues were great and others worth trying and learning about.
