A dozen of Beijing's oldest and most famous laozihao, or old brand name stores, some dating back more than a century, have
found refuge under one roof in a large traditional courtyard house in Xiaoyou Hutong, beside Houhai. These stalls moved here
from the city's historical Qianmen area in early 2006.
The Jiumen Xiaochi , or Nine Gates Snacks, archway standing by the lake in front of Xiaoyou Hutong refers to the nine gates in
the inner city of the Forbidden city. The private rooms in the courtyard are named after these gates, including Deshengmen,
Dongzhimen and Zhengyangmen.
Best snacks at Jiumen Xiaochi
Chatang Li specializes in miancha, a flour paste with a choice of sweet or salty toppings. Miancha was created by an imperial
chef who received a millet tribute from Inner Mongolia in 1858. He ground the grain into fine flour, added boiling water and mixed
it into a thick paste, into which he added brown sugar and osmanthus syrup. The imperial family loved the dish so much that it
soon became a staple breakfast item in the imperial menu.
Niangao Qian is known for it's sticky rice layered with red bean paste as well as ludagun, 'donkey rolling on the ground,' the most
popular sticky rice snack made by the Hui, or Chinese Muslims.
Yangtou Ma is best known for thin sliced meat from boiled lamb's head. This shop used to be located on Niu Jie, in the city's old
Muslim quarter.
Doufunao Bai serves soft beancurd, fine and delicate texture, topped with braised lamb and mushrooms.
En Yuan Ju is famous for chaogeda, stir-fried morsels-sized noodles with veggies and meat.
Dalian Huoshao makes potstickers in the shape of old-fashioned satchels that Chinese once wore over shoulder. These
potstickers were the creation of the Yao family from Shunyi, who set up their small restaurant in the old Dong'an Market in 1876
