Hong Bin Lou
The restaurant established in 1853 was widely considered as the best halal restaurant in Beijing – just like the reputation of Quanjude among all the Peking roast duck restaurants. It was originally in Tianjin, and was invited by the then Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai to settle in Beijing in the 1950s. Maybe it’s because of its experience in Tianjin that the restaurant is especially good at dishes made from river fish, in addition to its equally brilliant beef and lamb dishes.
