Houhai is known for the lake, bars and teahouses. Down a winding hutong lies Cocoa Ballet, where chocoholics can rejoice in deliciousness. It isn't very big, but they offer enough choices. And they are very, very delectable. Anyone in Beijing who loves and appreciates chocolate should be seeking…

When we first walked into Dazhaimen we were ceremoniously greeted by ten traditionally dressed ladies in two rows on either side of the entryway. The last one in the row led us to our table.
We requested a table near the stage, but unfortunately all of the 2 person tables are in the back. If yo…

This is a restaurant famous for its spicy hot foods, as evidenced by its name "Ma La seduction". Ma is "numb" and La is "spicy", sometimes the spicy hot dish numbs your mouth and lips. It's a small chain with several locations in Beijing. The one I went to was on the 7th floor of the Grand Pacific d…

Supposedly financed by actress and Beijing native Ziyi Zhang, the Shan Zhai restaurant is one of the first organic restaurants in Beijing. I've never put much stock in "organic" foods since in the US it usually just means smaller and more expensive fruits and vegetables, but the food at Shan Zhai w…

We wanted to take advantage of the chance to have some really reasonably priced sushi (and Japanese food in general) while we were in Beijing, and this place was excellent.
As well as being very reasonably priced indeed, it was also pretty good quality. As well as ordering a variety of sushi (mos…

Super Gambei (translated to Super "bottoms up" or "cheers") is a very nice cafe (across the street from Vantt Gallery and Cafe) on the main road in the 798 Art District in Beijing. Quite overpriced, but very cozy. They make yummy homemade ice cream, but it will run you 35rmb (about $5US) for two sma…

OK, this club, in Chaoyang area is a very expensive and elegant place. The place is full of the rich and beautiful, loaded with cute chinese girls for you single white people. The prices are very high and so the people here are the upper most part of Beijing. For example, if you decide to sit by a t…

I can't understand why taro flavored products haven't caught on in the United States. So far in China I've had some delicious warm taro pearl tea (http://www.travbuddy.com/photos_popup.php?rpid=5180) and now taro ice cream.
The kind I've been eating is made by Nestle and sells for around 10RMB a…

Vantt Gallery and Cafe is in a great location (on the main road in the 798 Art District in Beijing). Prices were good, a bit inflated because of the location, but not ridiculous. It's a great spot to people watch. I got some bibimbap (Korea dish), which was super yummy (about 25rmb, $4US), but there…

I had been to this restaurant several times in previous trips to Beijing too. I highly recommend this restaurant. The restaurant is pretty large, with a nice garden section and a Chinese style gate. Kind of styled after a large home.
Its roast duck is so tender, the skin practically melts in your…

This is a Manchurian style restaurant with very interesting interior and decent foods. You can ask for the menu in the wooden tray, each item is carved on a wooden stick! The pictured menu has the red arrow pointing to the special crispy shelled shrimp, which is one of the best such shrimps I have e…

I've been to other Hard Rock's before, and Beijing (newly renovated) wasn't that different. The food was pretty good, the prices expensive, the music really good (they played Nickelback's Someday- live at HRC and Metallica's Enter Sandman).
But then we got the bill...and somehow 2 160RMB drink…
