— Hello, Travel —
The Beijing Halal Food Map series has reached its 21st installment. Each post covers an average of 10 restaurants, bringing the total to over 200 halal spots in Beijing. If I haven't mentioned a restaurant, it is usually because I haven't eaten there. I only write about places I have personally visited. All photos and text are original, and you are free to repost them without asking for my permission. When it comes to matters of faith, the more people who benefit, the greater my reward in the afterlife. Therefore, copyright in this world is not important to me.
Also, a reminder to my fellow friends (dostis): after reading these guides, it is best to check major review websites to confirm if the restaurant is still open. Things change quickly now, and a place I mention today might close the next day.
1. Andingmen: Baodu Wang (Yang Daquan)

Baodu Wang has been renamed Yang Daquan on Dazhong Dianping. I am mentioning this shop because several unique restaurants near Andingmen are currently closed, including Annei Majia Steamed Dumplings (shaomai) and Lianshou Barbecue (kaochuan).

The shop is small, but there are private rooms on the second floor. The environment is decent overall. When we arrived, there were no other customers.

We ordered tripe (baodu) and nail-shaped meat pies (mending roubing). The tripe tasted average and was a bit tough to chew. The meat pie was likely leftover, so it lacked juice and the crust was a bit thick. I do not recommend it. If you want tripe, I suggest Laomenkuang Shuanrou; for meat pies, go to Baorui Mending Roubing Dian.

Address: No. 41 Andingmen Inner Street
2. Samarkand (Hamuerhan) Silk Road Cuisine

Samarkand is a high-end chain brand under the Western Mahua group. It currently has two locations in Beijing: this one at the Fengtai Headquarters Base and another at Maolinju. The restaurant is decorated in a Mediterranean style. to traditional western Chinese dishes, it also includes Mediterranean-style Western food, making it a fusion of Turkish and Xinjiang flavors.

The restaurant is positioned as high-end with attentive service. The ingredients are very carefully selected. I especially recommend the large meat skewers, which are tender and well-marinated. The restaurant also provides free fruit and snacks, and you can even make your own ice cream with unlimited self-service.

Oysters and scallops
Seafood dishes are a main specialty here. If you are with a large group, you can order a seafood platter.

Hand-grabbed lamb (shouzhua yangrou)
You can order single portions of the hand-grabbed lamb and beef short ribs. This is perfect for two people to share and try a piece of each.

Beef short ribs (niu xiaopai)
The cheese durian pita bread (pita bing) has a Turkish style. It is a very long piece with a strong durian scent.

Address: 1st Floor, Building 4, Zone 15, No. 188 South Fourth Ring Road, Fengtai District.
3. Helanshan Restaurant: Rotating Hot Pot

Helanshan Restaurant is on Nanheng West Street in the Niujie area. The first floor serves Northwest cuisine and also has a Yunnan bridge-crossing rice noodle (guoqiao mixian) shop. They recently opened a rotating hot pot on the second floor.

There are already several halal rotating hot pot spots in Beijing. The flavors are mostly the same, but this one in Niujie is relatively cheaper. You can choose from several soup bases, and you can mix your own dipping sauces.

Address: Opposite the Hui Muslim Kindergarten on Nanheng West Street, Niujie, second floor of Helanshan Restaurant.
4. Xinjiang Pamir Restaurant

Pamir Restaurant is a chain. They recently opened a new branch on the first floor of Chaoyangmen Shiguang. Since it is close to my workplace, I came to try it.

The shop has a promotion right now where you get free nut cake (qiegao) if you top up your account. It is a good deal. The restaurant looks clean and pretty, and the space is not crowded. However, the Xinjiang food is just average, making it a good spot for a work lunch.

The mixed noodles (banmian) and skewers are standard. The skewers are electric-grilled, so they are not as fragrant as charcoal-grilled ones, but the yogurt is quite good.

5. Little Lahore Indian and Pakistani Restaurant

This Pakistani restaurant is on the second floor of Building 6, Courtyard 2, Qingnian Xili, Qingnian Road, Chaoyang District. When I first mentioned it, they only did takeout and sold fast food like burgers and fries. After the pandemic, they renovated and now offer dine-in service. They serve traditional Indian and Pakistani cuisine and do not serve alcohol.

They have the minty crispy balls (pani puri) seen in the movie Dangal, butter naan, lamb leg biryani, and creamy chicken pasta.

6. Jinjia Laosan Restaurant

This Beijing-style stir-fry restaurant is next to the Songyuli Mosque in Panjiayuan. They have updated their traditional recipes to make the dishes more refined. The flavors are great and I recommend it.

Griddle-grilled meat (zhizi kaorou)
The kitchen grills the meat and brings it to your table. This method is called 'civilized eating' (wenchi). Another way is to stand up and grill the meat yourself while you eat, which is called 'martial eating' (wuchi).

Almond tofu (xingren doufu)
The outer shell is made of white chocolate, and the inside is almond tofu. This dish looks very tempting.

Beijing-style snack platter with six items
The six snacks are mustard-dressed cabbage (jimodun), shredded kelp, pork skin jelly, mashed fish, pickled cucumbers, and hawthorn.
7. Haibin Meat Pie

There is a Beijing-style meat pie (jingdong roubing) shop west of the Tongzhou Grand Mosque. Tongzhou is in the east of Beijing, so the meat pies made there are called Beijing-style meat pies. Tongzhou Mosque is a beautiful building with a traditional style and a long history. If you come here for namaz, you can grab a meal nearby. There are many halal restaurants in the area, and they all serve local flavors.

The meat pie (roubing) at Haibin's is decent, but I still prefer the one at Niujie Roubing Wan, where the crust is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

8. Dajinggai Barbecue Company

This is the first Qiqihar-style halal barbecue restaurant in Beijing. The owner is from Beijing and his wife is from Qiqihar. The shop has only been open for a month. I heard the news and immediately brought over a dozen people to try it. Everyone agreed it was delicious and affordable, with an average cost of less than 100 yuan per person.

Barbecue restaurants usually serve cold noodles (lengmian) as a staple food, and the cold noodles here are a big hit with the ladies.

The large beef steaks are worth recommending. We ordered everything on the menu this time. One of our companions is a real Hui Muslim from Qiqihar, and they confirmed that everything from the dipping sauce to the meat is authentic.

Address: East side of Building 13, Wanhong West Street, Chaoyang District.
9. Didi Niuhuoxian Beef Baked Bun

This is a newly opened beef baked bun (huoshao) and rice noodle shop on the ground floor of SOHO Shangdu in Dongdaqiao. It is a unique creation that combines traditional Beijing iron-griddle barbecue (zhizi kaorou) with large baked buns.

The owner's logo design is quite creative. He is a Beijing local with a passion for halal food and hopes to promote traditional Beijing halal cuisine. The shop serves more than just iron-griddle barbecue in buns; they also have electric-grilled skewers and rice noodles.

There is a group-buying deal on Dazhong Dianping for 39.9 yuan. It is not expensive, and the flavor is relatively light.

To be continued.
