I just returned early last week from my Asian travels, w/10h layover in PEK. I went to a branch of this restaurant located somewhere near the East Entrance side of the Forbidden City Complex. Or that's what my contact/ guide in PEK told me. We took the put-put motor/taxis ^ from Tianamen Sq. that evening for dinner.

I must agree, having never tried the PEK versions of this dinner, I was blown away. Most delicious, fatty (just the way i like it), and great selection on condiments, and side dishes. I ordered a Yangjing Beer with dinner, it felt like room temperature. LOL~~

Can't wait to go back for a more detailed meal, with more than 2 guests to sample more items on the menu. That, and I was racing to catch the last Airport Express train departing Dongzimen Station at 22:30.

PS: I swear I saw John Chen CEO of Blackberry at the restaurant. If I was not in a hurry, I would have walked over, and asked, "Why is my Blackberry still not working in China?"
