There are a lot of great dishes to enjoy in Beijing:
Pig's ear
Chicken feet
Cow's stomach
Cow's lung
Pickled loach
Black fungus
Thousand year old egg
Duck head
Duck tongue
Pig brain
Pig blood - related forms
and quite a few more....
This is pretty much standard fare. Not the truely bizarre.. cat, dog, donkey,snake, etc.
Best to have a knowledgeable host, flowing supply of good beer (not Yanjing),
decent baijiu, and a no smoke environment.
