Honestly, I booked with two dishes in mind and left with a longer list. The hutong lanes gave the route a clear sense of place rather than feeling like random snacks. My only advice is not to shorten the time at the hutong lanes.

Andrew M.🇵🇹 Portugal★★★★★2025-04

The Beijing and Lijiang meeting point was simple to find, and the food stops came at a sensible pace. There was time to ask what we were eating rather than just moving to the next plate.

Thomas F.🇦🇹 Austria★★★★☆2025-09

A practical note: one Beijing and Lijiang dish was outside my comfort zone, which was half the reason I booked. Asking how locals eat it made the stop much more interesting.

In hindsight, the best compliment I can give is that I never checked how many stops were left. The hutong lanes arrived at just the right point in the route.
