Being a foreigner in Beijing give me many opportunities and one of them is eat Beijing's street food. Back in my hometown, I rarely eat street food because dirty stereotype and too oily. Beijing has too many delicious street food. I should have a brave to try all of them since YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE!.
These are 4 most delicious Beijing's street snack :
1. Jidan Guanbing
Basically this food as same as pancake but salty pancake. The shape is round as same as pancake with egg already cook together inside the pancake. Whenever you ordered it, chef will asked you either you want add some sausage or lettuce inside. Jidan Guanbing has a special Beijing sauce. If you don't like spicy food, don't forget to tell them.
2. Jianbing
Jianbing as same as jidan guanbing but this food as same as crepes but more thick and smooth. This street food also salty food and has egg inside. Inside jianbing you will have sausage, special sauce, onion, and a crispy cracker. The ingredients of this street food as same as Jidan Guanbing but the one that makes this food special is fresh from the oven. Whenever you ordered it, they will make it in front of your eyes.
3. Leng mian (冷面）
Leng means cold, mian means noodle, so that's mean cold noodle. Because i'm kwetiauw lover, I couldn't say this noodle because the shape as same as kwetiauw. It straight, white, and thin. One portion of leng mian has noodle, tofu, nut, bean curd, vegetable with sour salty sauce. The taste like Chinese Vinegar and cold. This is my must eat street food when summer.
4. Rou Jia Mo (肉夹馍）
Burger with beef! Yes that's the meaning of Rou Jia Mo. This is a burger street food from China. Just a simple burger with well cooked beef Beijing sauce.
