The Only Downside: It’s Beijing Exclusive — The Roast Duck Box Everyone’s Talking About 🦆✨

#hellohalloween After a full day exploring Tiananmen Square, the National Museum, and the Forbidden City, make your way to Qianmen Street — and don’t miss this hidden gem tucked inside Xianyukou Hutong. It’s where locals go for a real taste of Beijing. The restaurant has a charming second floor with window seats and a small terrace, offering a view of the blue sky and the narrow hutong streets below — picture-perfect for photos 📸 ⸻ 🦆 The Star Dish: The Roast Duck Box It’s not just food — it’s a whole experience. The moment you lift the lid and slide open the drawer, the presentation feels ceremonial. • The crispy duck skin topped with caviar is incredibly fragrant and melts in your mouth. • Underneath, there’s perfectly sliced duck meat with scallions, cucumber, and hawthorn strips — ready to wrap in thin pancakes with a dab of sweet sauce. • It’s beautiful, delicious, and oh-so-satisfying 🤤 ⸻ 🍽️ Must-Try Dishes If you’re in the mood for more, they also serve all the classic Beijing comfort foods: • Fried Sausage Rolls (炸灌肠) • Crispy Meatballs (干炸丸子) • Sweet & Sour Pork (糖醋里脊) • Grilled Beef with Scallion (京葱炙子烤肉) • Minced Pork Noodles (肉丁炸酱面) • Drinks like Yangmei Lychee Cooler and Passionfruit Milk Custard 🍑🥛 And if you’re not here for a full meal, they even offer afternoon tea sets with four elegant Chinese-style desserts — Mei, Lan, Zhu, Ju (Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, Chrysanthemum) — each as beautiful as they are tasty 🌸🌼🎋
