Department Store Food, Beijing, China
Beijing's food is famous throughout China and as the capital, Beijing is a great place to sample cuisine from other areas of China and abroad.
Beijing cuisine (Jingcai) is special for its unique fusion of elaborate imperial court dishes and humble street food snacks, characterized by bold flavors featuring fermented soybean paste, garlic, and sesame. It is known for its salty profile, reduced oil, and distinct "dry-fry" cooking techniques that create tender, smoky meats.
