With the acceleration of the pace of life, more and more young people have neglected breakfast. Compared with young people who would rather skip breakfast and sleep a little longer, the older generation never make do with breakfast, especially the old Beijingers who love to eat and can eat it. They are very particular about every pickle and sesame seed cake. Have a steaming portion of braised or stir-fried liver, a bowl of fragrant noodle tea, a bite of crunchy burnt rings soaked in soy sauce, and a piece of sugar pancake with double sugar coating... among those If you get up a little late, there will be no seats at a well-established breakfast shop in Beijing. You can have a delicious meal for less than ten yuan per person, and you can still get a full sense of warmth and happiness, which makes you feel comfortable from the tip of your tongue to your heart!
Heiyaochang Sugar Cake appeared on TV many years ago. It is a halal breakfast shop. It is said that when it opened in 2001, it was originally making Zizi barbecue, sugar cakes and the like. The breakfast was considered a side job, but I never thought that it would be this side job that spread the reputation. Otherwise, any place with aunts and uncles is a treasure. At Heiyaochang Tangyou Cake, you can see this scene every morning: Beijing aunts and uncles holding bowls and basins, Internet celebrities holding live broadcasts on their mobile phones People, tourists who come here for the famous place... cyclists and drivers, young and old, this long queue is almost here. The store uses three 50-kilogram bags of standard flour almost every day to fry thousands of pancakes. The diners "queue for an hour and eat for five minutes," but they never tire of it.
The freshly fried sugar pancakes are very soft when they come out of the pan, accompanied by a warm aroma. The big fried cake is golden in color, thick and chewy. There is so much brown sugar that it fills up the pancake, but it doesn’t taste too sweet, especially the crispy texture produced after the sugar is fried. Oh my, isn’t this the taste of happiness?
In addition to sugar pancakes, almost all old Beijing halal breakfasts are available here. The legendary "come a set" - salt and pepper beef tongue pancake sandwiched with white oil pancakes. The pancakes fresh out of the pan look great. When eaten between beef tongue pancakes, the greasy feeling is eliminated. The salty taste of salt and pepper is just right. It will take away the rich aroma of the pancake. Don't underestimate this arrogant "staple food with staple food", this is the most authentic old Beijing way of eating, and you won't feel hungry until two or three in the afternoon. In addition, there are also must-haves such as tofu curd and soy milk. They are all made from freshly ground soybeans, not to mention how fragrant they are!

Pancakes are almost universally seen in the breakfast world Everyone's favorite food, in every tense, busy morning when you are about to be late for work, there is no breakfast that can be more direct and faster than a set of pancakes.
Different from traditional Tianjin pancakes, Beijing pancakes are filled with crispy and fragrant pancakes. This pancake stall opened next to the Flower Market Mosque has a very straightforward name - "Flower Market Halal Pancakes". Although the facade is very inconspicuous, it has been open for more than ten years. You can enter through the big green iron gate next to Ya'er Liji store. Or you don't have to bother to look for it. You can know where the stall is by following the queue.
The Flower Market Halal Pancakes opens at 6 a.m. and closes at 6:30 p.m., rain or shine. The waiters are all Muslims, and everyone wears a white prayer hat. The reason why Hua Shi Halal Pancakes are so popular is that every crispy pancake here is freshly fried, and the sauce is also their own secret recipe, giving it a slightly sweet taste. The proportion of fabrics is also excellent, and the batter is still very chewy after being spread out and fused with eggs. The pancakes are also stuffed with peanuts and sesame seeds, which are super filling, and then wrapped in hot crisps. Take a bite while they are hot. They are crispy, crispy and fragrant. The amazing thing is that even if you cover them with a plastic bag for half an hour, they still taste crispy.
Highly recommend the Big Mac-style "double egg and double crispy" pancakes, it's so satisfying to eat one! In particular, since this store is full of repeat customers, many customers buy four or more, so the waiting time is a bit long.
However, it’s worth waiting for this hot Beijing-style traditional pancake!

I have to say, there are so many delicious breakfasts in Nancheng, it was very popular a while ago Yin’s “Hua Oven Egg Filled Cake” is one of them. When I was a kid on the way to school, I would often buy an egg-filled pancake from a roadside stall and eat it. After eating, I would wipe my mouth with oil before going to school. When I grew up, it was almost impossible to find stalls selling stuffed cakes in Beijing. I always thought about the taste of stuffed cakes in my childhood, until I encountered "Huabao Lu Egg stuffed cakes".
This small shop hidden next to the Guangming Bridge in the Second Ring Road has a very small storefront. It is open in two hours from 7 to 10:30 in the morning and from 5 to 8:30 in the evening, but no matter what time it is, There was a long queue at the door. It is said that the shop is opened by three Beijing guys in their 20s. They speak with a Beijing accent, have tattoos exposed, and wear kangol berets. Not to mention they are very fashionable. Even though he may be a kid from Beijing, he is very strict in everything he does and has a good service attitude. He keeps making cakes in front of the oven, which really tests his patience. The recruitment notice at the door also shows the attitude of this store - long-term recruitment: young people, motivated and motivated.
In fact, the traditional method of making egg-filled pancakes is similar to that of pancakes. The key to deliciousness lies in the key step of browning in the oven. The same goes for Huabao oven egg-filled pancakes: bake first, then fill, and then bake. The bread is very thick, and the sauce is a sweet and salty paste handmade by the store. The spiciness of the chili sauce is suitable for most people. There is also a little cumin-like dry ingredient sprinkled on the cake like icing on the cake. It is about the same. The secret to delicious food. The aroma of the hot pancake and eggs combined is so tempting. When combined with lettuce and tenderloin or ham sausage, the outside is charred and the inside is tender. Every bite is delicious!
You can directly group buy the 14 yuan set meal, which is filled with tenderloin and King of Kings ham, and a bag of charcoal-roasted soy milk. You can choose soy milk or soy milk, both iced and room temperature. If you are in a hurry to get to work, be sure to queue up early. You may not know who will buy 20 cakes at a time and take them away. This is what often happens...

Speaking of the history of bean juice, it is deeply rooted in the traditional food culture of old Beijing. It originated in the Liao and Song Dynasties. During the Qianlong period, it became a palace drink. Liang Shiqiu once mentioned Douzhier in his book "Yashe Talks about Eating": "People who can't drink Douzhier are not true Peiping people."
Speaking of Doujiu shops, in addition to the old Ciqikou Doujui shop and Jinxin Doujui shop in the Temple of Heaven, there is also a Beijing-style doujiu shop that has been listed in the Michelin Bib Gourmand, which is "Yinsan Doujiu".
Speaking of the reputation of Yin San Dou Juice, it should not be underestimated. A friend posted a post on a circle of friends about drinking Yin San Dou Juice. There were more than 100 comments under it. Some people replied, "Wine wine", and some said, "I miss you so much after not drinking it for a few days." "This is a mouthful", and some people said, "I have to go to Yin San to check in every day." I didn't expect that Yin San has so many die-hard fans, including many born in the 90s.
It is said that Yin Sandou Juice has moved five times and has never left Nancheng. The current store is at the west entrance of Dongxiaoshi Street, and later opened a branch in Guangming Building. It's an inconspicuous community shop. The old-fashioned wooden door has four big red characters "Yin Sandou Juice" on it. The signboard is also simple. This "attire" seems to be different from "Michelin". Although it is a small shop, it is very popular. The bean juice shop opened at 6 a.m., and regular customers came to the store before dawn. The owner of Yin San Dou Juice is named Yin Xin'an. He is the third eldest child in his family, hence the name of the store.
"A bowl of bean juice, a bowl of braised meatballs, two burnt rings, and a plate of mustard shreds." Most of the customers in the store are regular customers. They just open their mouths and order without looking at the menu. The back kitchen is busy, with people making bean juice, making sesame seed cakes, and serving plates... Yinsan Doujiu Shop is not big, with just a few tables. Customers carry their food and start looking for a seat. Sharing a table is a must. Regardless of their age, the customers here all abide by one rule. After finishing their meal, they quickly give up their seats to their neighbors. "Look at this bean juice, it's gray with green in it, and it's sweet in the mouth. This is good bean juice." These old Beijingers who love to drink bean juice are strangers one moment, and may become good friends the next.
The secret to the popularity of Yinsan Bean Juice is the addition of "old juice". Soybean juice is easy to spoil. If it is not fermented for three consecutive days, it will spoil. If the fermentation of soybean juice is insufficient, knowledgeable customers will complain that "the soybean juice has no sour taste." Later, Yin Xin'an discovered that adding a spoonful of "old pulp" to the newly brewed soybean juice can speed up the full fermentation of the soybean juice. This is called "introduction".
It tastes sour in the mouth. After swallowing it, it will be sweet without eating anything else. Let's take a look at the shape of this bean juice. It's foamy and foamy. It's made after the mung bean noodles are fermented. The viscosity is also quite high, like milk. Regular customers who come to this store not only drink it themselves in the store, but also take a bag of soy juice home to drink, which shows how much they love this drink.
When talking about bean juice, you can’t miss Jiaohuaner. The original bean juice and Jiaohuaner are the most unique breakfast combination in Beijing. The burnt rings in Yin San's bean juice are really crispy and crispy. Soaked in the bean juice, it's so authentic. In addition to loving bean juice, old Beijingers also like these soups and water, thickened and braised. The braised meatballs in the store are also very popular among diners. The braised meatballs are a bit like the old Beijing stir-fried liver. It contains garlic, fungus, coriander, mushrooms, yellow flowers, and green onions. It is salty and suitable for people with heavy mouths.
People’s hot days begin with a bowl of bean juice, a charred ring, and a bowl of braised meatballs.

Speaking of Beijing people’s memories of steamed buns, most of them are indispensable for "Xisi Baozi" "Baozi Shop" figure. This time-honored restaurant located at the corner of Xisi Road is a warm memory for generations of people.
Nowadays, there are many branches of Xisi Baozi Pu, but the one with the best environment is the one located in Fuchengmen Wantong Financial Center. Although the area is not large, the environment is clean and bright, and the antique decoration style incorporates many old Beijing elements, bringing people back to the old days of Peking.
The steamed buns are divided into four fillings: pork and green onions, beef and green onions, zucchini and eggs, and vegetarian three delicacies. The fillings of the two kinds of meat buns are so thin and oily that you can taste the aroma of meat. They are a bit salty but go well with the porridge - of course, the more authentic ones will be paired with a bowl of fried liver. The two vegetarian buns have a bland taste, so choose this if you don’t want to eat too greasy.
