Chinese cuisine is world famous. But when you think of cuisine in Beijing what comes up to your mind ? Beijing Duck, then what else? To understand a city, a country you will have to taste the local food. It tells you a lot more than just the food.

Have you ever heard of the top thirteen snacks in Beijing? “shi san jue” in local Beijing terms. These are the snacks locals could not live without. Some originated in the royal palace. Some were typical street food. But they all became an essential part of ordinary Beijinger’s life. So just be a Beijinger for one afternoon. Let’s walk in the Hutongs. Time to discover the delicacy and culture hidden in the hutongs. But is it not that easy. You will have to accomplish a few missions on the way…

Get to learn and make the famous Beijing Black Sauce Noodls from a Beijinger at an interesting old house!
