Beijing · VEGAN & VEGETARIAN
Good vegan & vegetarian tours fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 2 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Reserve a two-hour meal at Jing Zhaoyin, Beijing’s Michelin Three-Star vegetarian restaurant near Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and Yonghe Temple. Chef Gary’s menu centers on mushrooms, soy, vegetables, and whole grains. Dining costs about 1,200 RMB per person, separate from the reservation service.
“Great food, great service, I had a wonderful night! Recommended.”
Join Sanxia in Tongzhou for a private vegan cooking session built around a local market visit. Shop for seasonal produce, make dumplings, noodles, buns, and other Chinese dishes, then share tea and lunch or dinner in her home. English and Chinese sessions suit 1 to 8 people.
“This was amazing! I did this cooking class back in September and it was such a great experience! I was the only person booking it that day, so we met a little earlier, went to the market together and bought all the vegetables fresh from there! Then, we went to Sanxia‘s apartment and cooked a lot of different dishes! It was really fun!! We all ate together and talked a lot. I actually ended up spending my whole day with Sanxia, her boyfriend Jürgen and their friends. It was my favorite day of my whole solo trip to Beijing, China ^^”
