I might be going to Beijing this weekend. Does anyone have recommendations on restaurants and speciality items? Not familiar with the city, so any help would be great.
Ooops and another post - because I want to announce that I have found my DEFINITIVE hotpot place in Beijing. Dingdingxiang is a bit too precious Nanmen is good, but rather ole skool even for me (eating in coats ain't that fun...) Donglaishun is OK but the franchise is too variable. I have found my hotpot nirvana...... Haidilao 海底捞! Brilliant, just brilliant. From the nice touch of the aprons (I always get filthy eating hotpot) through the amazing and gluttonous frenzy-inducing sauce stations
