Beijing Hutong Food and Beer Tour by Tuk Tuk

Lost Plate and our tour guide Hong did a great job. We received a lot of information about the different food styles. We had great food, in restaurants we could never find our self.

This was a very fun tour. The food stops were all delicious. I had no idea there was so much yummy stuff to be found in Beijing. All the dishes appealed to a Western palette and a few stops I wish I could have gone back to later. The tuk tuk ride was crazy, fun and I felt pretty safe. It was a bit crowded as we were a full tour that night. Our host was lovely and took very good care of us. Be sure you know where the meet up spot is as I had a bit of trouble navigating there and should have asked more questions before departing my hotel. All worked out and this was a very fun experience!

My wife and I recently visited Beijing and we were lucky enough to partake in this excellent tour of the best kept food secrets of the Hutong! We were collected at a subway station by our tour guide Amanda who quickly got us into our tuk tuks and onto our food journey. We first visited a small restaurant where we were given delicious Beijing noodles with special sauce. We then went on to a BBQ restaurant that offered delicious skewers with meat or veggies. Next we hit up a cool little shop for some delicious meat buns and potent local liquor. We then visited a lovely courtyard restaurant for a traditional family get together style meal before grabbing a delicious Beijing dessert. We finished the tour at a local brewery where we were each given a pint of their excellent craft beers. This tour was a lot of fun and a great way to experience the food, drinks and vibes of the hutongs. Amanda was extremely friendly and helpful and gave us great insights into the history and significance of the various cuisines we tried. Additonally, she made sure everyone was topped up with a local beer throughout the tour. Make sure to keep an empty stomach before you go however since there will be A LOT of food on offer! If you're a foodie this tour is for you and one of the best ways to sample some great local delicacies alongside a nice beer too!

Lots of hidden away food places that I'm not sure I'd ever find again, even with the notes we were left with. Some fantastic food on this trip, and some great company. But dress warm if you're doing this in winter - Beijing is cold when you're speeding along on a Tuk Tuk at night in December.

You must do this!! This tour was absolutely fantastic! I arrived a bit late to the meeting spot so they had already gone off. After calling the company they reached the guide and she came for me in one of the tuk tuks. As the others were already almost done eating I wouldn't get a chance to sit down in our first stop, however, I was able to get it to go! Our guide was incredibly helpful and wonderful at explaining the food and was very informative. All of the food was wonderful, and were definitely places you couldn't find on your own! Also, at the end, we were given a wonderful pouch with a few extras inside. This is a must do, even if you only have one night in Beijing!

We had a group of 6 and we all had a great time! Well organised and a lot of fun! Going to places we never would have found on own own! Thanks team!

Joy was a great host. She took us to some really good restaurants and was super attentive to the entire group and if we wanted to try more she'd get more or if we needed more beer or anything she'd arrange it. The tuk-tuks whisked us around effectively between places and we never felt rushed when eating. Joy also explained the dishes and where they were from. Good tour.

Really really good tour , highly recommended. Our guide Icy was excellent

Incredible experience. We would never have found these places on our own. Food delicious and company great. Guide friendly and informative. A wonderful night. Tuk Tuk was an exciting part of the evening.

This trip is well worth it for the food. Very small, family owned restaurants in the neighborhood of Beijing serving mostly their local residences. The beer is the dessert when you visit the local brew pub on the final stop. During the night you get as much China canned beer as you want. It is best they reserve the brewery until the end because it would be hard to leave. I enjoyed this event and recommend it.
