Reviews
- Emerson_13This little spot tucked away in a hutong really feels like eating at grandma's house in old Beijing. The braised pork shoulder was so tender it practically fell off the bone, melt-in-your-mouth fat with this rich savory sauce, seriously amazing over rice. Grandma's braised beltfish was also really flavorful, fish was fresh and flaky with a thick sauce, though it had a bit of a wine taste that kinda stood out. The whole vibe is super nostalgic, like the tables and chairs are set up in someone's old living room, and eating while old songs play just hits different. Their home-style dishes are legit too — tomato and egg stir-fry was tangy and sweet, perfect with rice and super satisfying. Overall left feeling really full and happy, and the staff were super warm and friendly.
