There are much better places for Beijing snacks than Huguosi. But those places are more specialized in one type of snack than big variety. Only huguosi got them all together! From yummy intestines, noodles, sore soya juice to the little sweet yellow bean cakes... they are all there for you to choose from.

It's the best one stop beijing snack eating place for sure!

It's cheap, popular, hygienic and historical as Beijing locals always said.

With 20ish RMB, you can get 4 or 5 different kinds of Beijing style snacks. And according to the popularity of this restaurant, the food is assumed to be authentic, because most of the customers are all Beijing natives who know what and how to order.

Anyhoo it's not as good as I expected. Beijing Cheese/ (奶酪) (Nai Lao) , Jellied Bean Curd/ (豆腐脑) (Dou Fu Nao) and Almond tofu/ (杏仁豆腐) (Xin Ren Dou Fu) were great, totally melting in your mouth. Others like some other cakes, noodles are a little bit disappointing. Too dry and not really tasty, it was as normal as other food you can have anywhere else. And the service was just so-so.

This was our adventure on Beijng local food, and it ended up sitting in that famous place and wondering why Beijing locals love those snacks that much.
