Eating out is one of the most popular activities during holiday season. New Year's Eve dinner may be a wonderful experience for your loved one. In Beijing, people can easily find restaurants with various favors. Whatever you want Beijing local, national or international favors, let’s just enjoy it!

Hot pot (火锅) is a great option in the winter season. Typical hot pot dishes include thinly sliced meat, leafy vegetables, mushrooms, wontons, egg dumplings, and seafood. Vegetables, fish, and meat should be fresh. Different kinds of hot pot can be found in Beijing - typically, more modern eateries offer a divided poy with differently flavored broths in each section. In Beijing, shuan-yang-rou (涮羊肉)-- can be viewed as representative of this kind of food, which does not focus on the soup base.

Barbecue might be one of the most ancient cooking methods in human history. Barbecue has many fans around the world. It is another top choice in this season for meat lovers as well. There are multiple styles like Kao-Rou-Ji (烤肉季—typical Beijing favor), Korean, Japanese and international favors available in Beijing.
