Start the morning right by meeting your local foodie guide at an easy-to-find yet off the beaten path location.

There are no tourists here, just family-run eateries and street stalls where everything is made to order like it has for generations. While visiting 4-5 sit-down eateries, street stalls and markets, you will get to try over 10 breakfast dishes and drinks that Beijing locals love. You'll learn how each dish is made as they are prepared fresh for us to enjoy.

We had a great time with our guide Jim. We got to taste a lot of typical local food. It was a very nice walk in the hutongs and we didn't see many tourists there.

The tour with Jim was excellent. I regularly take food tours in cities when I travel for work, and Jim’s knowledgeable approach and kind nature was perfect to introduce our group to foods in the hutong. If you have the opportunity to take this tour with Jim, I recommend!

We did the morning food tour on a very cold morning in Beijing. Jim was our guide and was full of knowledge, humour and made the whole trip a breeze. We had an excellent time exploring hidden gems and trying some of the best breakfast foods we’ve ever had. Thanks Jim and LostPlate! Will definitely recommend to all those visiting Beijing.

Excellent tour of what you need to try for a local breakfast. We ate/tried soooo much food ! I didn't need any lunch and just had a light dinner that day.

The hutong walking food tour was a great way not only to explore the hutongs themselves but to immerse yourself in Chinese culture. We learned about the different kinds of traditional foods all the way from sweet to savory as well as tons of trivia and what daily life is like there from our tour guide, Jim. Jim was an excellent tour guide, he was very informative, courteous, accommodating, and friendly. We would converse about various topics on Chinese life and culture, most specifically how it was in Beijing, and he would always offer help without us even asking. Our tour guide also had good story telling capabilities, as with every word he spoke about the history and way of living in the places we walked to, we would always be so intrigued and interested in whatever he had to say. After our tour, Jim even helped us on how to get around to find other interesting places to tour around, showing that he truly knew the lay of the land and the interesting parts of the entire city. Overall, we truly enjoyed the time we spent on the tour as well as the food we ate, it will truly be a memory that we will treasure.
