Beijing, China Mainland
¥¥ ・ Dongbei
This place stands out from the crowd of typical Dongbei restaurants with its modern decor done out in red and white, and servers in tailored suits. That said, the food is unmistakably Dongbei, covering recipes from Heilongjiang, Liaoning and Jilin, albeit in smaller portions and finer presentations. In addition to classics such as fried pork loin in sweet and sour sauce, and pork stew with pickled cabbage, try rare culinary gems such as crayfish "tofu".
