PS We Ate You: August
Every month, we like to shine a spotlight on the most delicious dishes we’ve stumbled upon recently. Chow down!
verdure bianca
Pizza Express, RMB 98
This pizza with chargrilled eggplant, zucchini, and Portobello mushrooms topped off with basil and parmesan cheese on a white pizza base is bound to be a new vegetarian favorite. The pizza base is not too thin, but also not too thick, while the simple topping brings a lot of flavor to this new summer dish.
sliced lemon duck
Na Lan, RMB 88
This cold dish served at the Guangxi Provincial Government Restaurant Na Lan is the perfect side to add to a meal this summer – succulent duck sitting in a zesty lemon sauce, topped off with fresh chilis and herbs to add a slight kick.
protein boost
MOKA Bros, RMB 68
This light salad of beetroot, pumpkin, quinoa, walnuts, and goat’s cheese is an intricate mix of flavors to fuel Beijing’s not-always-healthy summer activities, or provide somewhat of a detox. Healthy and delicious at the same time, while also complementing the warmer weather. What more could you ask for?
corner shop nachos
Taco Bar, RMB 48
This pile of warm nachos is topped off with refried beans, melted cheese, chunks of grilled chicken, chopped fresh cherry tomatoes, and some fresh herbs for that kick. Great for snacking while out for drinks with friends, or as a starter to a great meal.
the Dixie
Home Plate BBQ, RMB 68
The Dixie is one of the many new burgers on Home Plate BBQ’s menu, topped off with fried pickles, cured bacon crisped to perfection, and warm melted pimento cheese. For those feeling particularly sinful, adding RMB 30 will get you twice the amount of meat.
