北京十大地道小吃馆子 Top 10 places in Beijing to snack


京的风味小吃历史悠久、品种繁多、用料讲究、制作精细,堪称有口皆碑。清代《都门竹枝词》云:三大钱儿卖好花,切糕鬼腿闹喳喳,清晨一碗甜浆粥,才吃茶 汤又面茶;凉果炸糕甜耳朵,吊炉烧饼艾窝窝,叉子火烧刚卖得,又听硬面叫饽饽;烧麦馄饨列满盘,新添挂粉好汤圆……”这些小吃都在庙会或沿街集市上叫卖, 人们无意中就会碰到,老北京形象地称之为碰头食

1、锦馨豆汁儿

老字号,品正宗豆汁儿的好去处。他家的豆汁儿是绿色的,味道没的说———很浓,很醇正,入口也没有特别强烈的酸味,不喝两三碗不回家。店面不大,但饭口上人较多且全是最普通的北京人,只要一进门就让你回到十多年前吃饭排队等座的年头。

4、郑一锅儿

这里的羊蝎子火锅35元一小锅,45元一大锅。汤色呈酱色,里头很少看到大料和调味料,舀几勺汤品后发觉汤清而不淡,香味很足;羊腔骨肉质细嫩,骨 髓香而不腻。每口锅内还特别放有一根羊尾巴,吃起来连骨头都嚼得动。火锅店现在还属开业期,店内给每位顾客发放优惠卡,每锅优惠10元。

Global financial crisis hits Beijing luxury hotels hard

A glut of new upscale hotels opened before the Olympics, and business has gone from bad to worse.

The owners of a new ultra-luxury hotel maintain an air of confidence in the face of adversity. The 234-room Pangu Plaza (
Pangu 7-star hotel), which opened in December, charges as much as $17,750 a night for a suite. The sushi bar, where the cheapest lunch special is $265, cooks its rice in mineral water flown in from Japan. The walls in the hotel are covered with silk, the floors with marble -- Italian of course.

"The Chinese new rich have plenty of money. We have Bentleys pulling up with no number plates. So you can tell that they're brand-new," room manager Dennis Seng said, scoffing at the suggestion of inauspicious timing for opening a luxury hotel.

"The other day, a Russian couple ran up a $4,000 tab at an intimate lunch for two in the Japanese restaurant," he said.

His confidence, however, is belied by the cavernous, empty lobby where the only sound is the tapping of the high heels of the crisply attired staff. No paying customers were evident during a weekday afternoon visit, although Seng said that occupancy has reached "up to 30%."

If that is the case, the Pangu is faring far better than dozens of other newly opened hotels here.

It might simply be a glut of luxury.

"Everything that the developers are building is 'luxury' or 'imperial,' luxury apartments, luxury shopping mall, luxury hotels, but this is not what the Chinese people need or can afford," said Hu Xingdou, an economics professor at the Beijing Institute of Technology.

Pangu overlooks 2008 Summer Olympic landmarks like the "Bird's Nest" and the "Water Cube," and the new Regent Hotel boasts a panoramic view of the Forbidden City. The Park Hyatt opened in December on the upper floors of a new skyscraper.

It touts itself as the highest hotel in Beijing, with 360-degree views from a 66th-floor restaurant.


Adjacent to the Summer Palace is the new
Aman hotel, part of which occupies original imperial guesthouses. The cheapest room is $480 in the off-season.

"You had so many new hotels opening in the Olympic lead-up and even afterwards. [Even] if it was business as usual and we didn't have a financial crisis, this would have been a tough year," said Damien Little, a director of the hotel consulting firm Horwath Asia Pacific.

His firm counted 126 hotel openings in Beijing last year, adding 29,000 rooms. Hotels that missed their deadlines for completion are still opening.

Even the Olympics were disappointing. Despite advance word that all rooms would be sold out during the games, hotels were only 67% occupied during August, the Olympic month, according to STR Global, a hotel research firm.

China's tourism business was also badly hurt by the government's decision to sharply limit the number of foreign visitors during the Olympics, making it difficult for many people to get visas.

"The visas were a debacle. It was a real slap in the face to the hotels," said Ian Billard, a business advisory services manager at the U.S.-China Business Council. "You're now talking about 10 to 30% occupancy in hotels that were counting on 70 to 80%."

Perhaps the only relief for Beijing's beleaguered hotel industry is the fact that the most feared competitor, the
Mandarin Oriental Hotel, will not open any time soon. The hotel, in the China Central Television compound co-designed by architect Rem Koolhaas, was gutted in a spectacular fire this month.

"Nobody wants to say it, but that's one less hotel," Little said.

China's top ten hottest contemporary artists



  • Zhang Xiaogang (张晓刚), born in 1958 in China's Yunnan province. Type of art: Surrealism works, portraiture. Zhang is known for his surrealist paintings, with Picasso and Dali among his influences. His Bloodline series of paintings, including 'Big Family', feature stylized and monochrome portraits of Chinese people in stiff, formal poses, which recall portraits done in the 1950s and 1960s.

  • Zeng Fanzhi (曾梵志), born in 1964 in Wuhan, holds the auction record for a contemporary Asian artist. Type of art: Figure painting, portraits. Zeng is among the most sought-after Chinese contemporary artists. He combines expressionist and realist styles in his work, which often deals with relationships between people. His series of Great Man paintings – featuring Karl Marx, Lenin, Stalin and Mao among others – appear at first glance to be official portraits, but subvert the traditional representations with use of monochrome and expressive brush strokes.

  • Yue Minjun (岳敏君), born 1962 in Heilongjiang. Type of art: Expressionist figurative paintings. Yue is a member of the Chinese 'cynical realist' movement. He is noted for depicting 'cloned doppelgängers', grotesquely contorted with maniacal grins, such as 2005's 'Backyard Garden'. The forced jollity of his anti-heroes echoes modern anxieties.
.
  • Wang Guangyi (王广义), born 1957, in Heilongjiang. Type of art: Mixed-media, painting. Wang Guangyi is seen as an exponent of 'political pop'. His work, including 2005'2 'Porsche', combines the styles of propaganda posters with consumer logos. 'Stylistically merging the government enforced aesthetic of agitprop with the kitsch sensibility of American pop,

  • Liu Xiaodong (刘小东), born 1963, Liaoning. Painter and photographer documented the controversial Three Gorges Dam project.

  • Cai Guo-Qiang (蔡国强), born 1957. Performance artist who uses gunpowder to produce 'explosive events'.

Top Ten Galleries in Beijing 北京十大画廊推荐


Beijing is the best place in China to be whether you're an artist, a diehard collector or just like to walk around and enjoy the shows.

Chinese contemporary art was officially born with an unofficial exhibition just outside the China Art Galley (now the National Art Museum of China) by the Stars Group in 1979; it gained momentum with a group of artists frequently referred to as the 1985 New Art Movement and continued to flourish throughout the 1980s when many of today's auction house favorites burst on the scene, including sculptor Wang Guangyi, painter Fang Lijun and video artist Zhang Peili.

Serious collectors and art students may wish to plan their itinerary by areas. The rule-of-thumb is: head north-east. As the
798 Art District aka Dashazi - which opened to visitors in 2002 - is the most important area, both as a centre for new art and for the cafe-bar culture that clusters around creative folk. The Chaoyang Brewery, known as Jiuchang in Chinese, is a newly established commercial art district that lies just to the north of 798. Caochangdi, a village that lies a few minutes from 798 to the north-east, is far less commercial in presentation. The National Art Museum of China, though mainly a place to see older,mainstream work, has started to exhibit an ambitious programme of international contemporary and modern art. Peak times for viewing art in Beijing occur in April and May, with several art festivals around the capital, notably the 798 Art Festival. Around October time, galleries also put up their best work as artists, gallerists and collectors flock to the capital for the China International Gallery Exposition (www.cige-bj.com) and the Beijing Biennale (www.bjbiennale. com.cn).

Architecture’s Ten Best of 2008: Beijing has the Top Three

Three of the greatest buildings of the year 2008, Herzog and de Meuron’s extraordinary Olympic Stadium, the stunning steel latticework structure widely known as the Bird’s Nest; and Norman Foster’s Beijing Airport, a project that was not only bigger than any other airport in the world, but more beautiful, more logically laid out, and more quickly built. And the headquarters of CCTV, the Chinese television network, by Rem Koolhaas and Ole Scheeren, of the Office for Metropolitan Architecture—a building which I had thought was going to be a pretentious piece of structural exhibitionism—turned out to be a compelling and exciting piece of structural exhibitionism.
