Wu Ming Ju

Called the State Banquet restaurant because the menu includes dishes served at those events. My hosts told me that it was Chou En-lai’s favorite. Lovely private booth/rooms. Had some great food here. The Lion’s Head (Chou’s favorite dish) was great. Other recommended dishes include the “Field Snails” and the Duck Toungues. I was recommended a clear squid egg soup which was ok, but is though to be quite special.

defintely a dining highlight in Beijing.
