Lao Ciqikou Douzhi Shop - Most-favored by Beijingers

The Lao Ciqikou Douzhi Shop is a popular shop among Beijingers. Drinking Douzhir (fermented mung bean juice) is good for your health. Having Douzhir together with Jiaoquan (a crispier fried ring) and the shredded pickled vegetables will make you feel comfortable - a great enjoyment especially in spring.

Many people said that the food in this shop, especially the steamed stuffed buns with half fermented skin and oily stuffing, will remind you of your childhood.
