New Beijing Bars & Restaurants: September 2016

2016-09-13 ThatsBJ城市漫步




There are so many new bars and restaurants opening up in Beijing every month that sometimes even we find it difficult to keep up. Need a refresher? Here's a roundup of all the new restaurant and bar openings we featured in our September 2016 issue.




Restaurants


Ji Kun Cafe




There is frankly very little to say about Ji Kun Cafe. This small restaurant primarily serves one thing. There is a lot to say, however, about restaurants that only do one thing, and excel at that one thing. At Ji Kun, that thing is Hainan chicken rice.

Daily, 11am-2pm, 5-9pm; 4 Sanlitun Dongsanjie, Chaoyang 朝阳区三里屯东三街4号(85321991)




Pitt Burger




Pitt Burger is a welcome new opening in Maizidian, and its burgers are rather good. In fact, you will struggle to find a better burger in this city for under RMB40. The classic beef variety (RMB39) comes with caramelized onions and a signature sauce. Its patty is thick, juicy and Australian; its bun a sturdy frame for the goodness. Add a few kuai and you can enjoy something more decorated, like the mushroom or arugula burgers (both RMB46). The salads are also surprisingly delicious.

Daily, 10am-11pm; Door 105, Haiyue Mingmen Apartments, 38 Maizidian Zaoyingbeili Community, Chaoyang  朝阳区麦子店枣营北里38号海悦名门公寓105底商(65013525) 




Pachakutiq




Pachakutiq is the brainchild of one of Buena Onda’s original partners. This means that its Peruvian-inspired menu is authentic, pisco sours and all. We particularly enjoy the beef avocado roll (RMB60), with its tender meat on the inside and flaky crust on the outside.

Daily 5pm-late; China Central Mall, between T1 and T2, 81 Jianguo Lu, Chaoyang 朝阳区建国路81号(85887955)




Coucou




While Sanlitun’s newest hot pot restaurant Coucou is certainly swankier than its casual sister chain Xiabu Xiabu, it’s imperative that you wear a bib. But ignore this minor informality, and you’ll find an upscale restaurant that is just about worth the higher price tag. Pick the meat and vegetables you’re partial to and get dipping. (It’s hot pot – our menu recommendations are hardly necessary.)

Daily, 10am-10pm; 3/F Topwin Center, 1 Sanlitun Nanlu, Chaoyang  朝阳区三里屯南路1号通盈中心3层(56268311)




Mimi e Coco




New bar Mimi e Coco, the latest project from the crew at popular pizza spot Ramo, is a haven of slick design and even slicker beats tucked just off Fangjia and fully soundproofed for your partying pleasure.

Open from Mon-Fri: 6pm-1am, Sat: 3pm-late, Sun: 3-10pm (kitchen closes at 11pm);64 Fangjia Hutong, Dongcheng  东城区方家胡同64号(84016288) 




The Daily Bak




Although the server tells us that Daily Bak means ‘daily meat’ (he is as confused as we are), the cafe-bakery in fact sells freshly baked European-style breads, pastries, donuts and coffee. The made-to-order sandwiches are a solid lunch option. Add a RMB6 donut and you’re looking at a pretty sweet deal.

Open from 10am-10pm; Beijing Shimao Department Store, Beijing Shimao Department Store China, 13 Gongti BeiLu, Chaoyang 朝阳区工体北路13号1层世茂百货(84549331)




Bars


Bar 4 Nine



Bar 4 Nine is like a gentlemen’s club (hidden location, plush couches, doting service) without all the downsides of a gentlemen’s club (classism, misogyny). The lounge is the classiest thing to hit the Jiaodaokou area for some time, and bartenders mix both classic cocktails and – for the more adventurous – baijiu creations. 


Open from Tue-Sun 7pm-2am; 2/F, 308 Andingmen Neidajie, Dongcheng 东城区安定门内大街308号2层




Lighthaus




Still not sure what Sanlitun’s ‘Mercedes me’ actually does? Well, in addition to luxury car merch and Sichuanese food, there’s also an upmarket bar on the second floor. Cocktails are the order of the day at Lighthaus, though the Mercedes own-brand wine is – believe it or not – pretty decent. Views over Taikoo Li make this a good people-watching spot.


Open from Mon-Thu 4pm-1am, Fri-Sun 11am-2am; 2/F, Mercedes me, 1 Sanlitun Nanlu, Chaoyang  朝阳区三里屯南路一号2/F (858807150)




Legend Beer




Once upon a time, Beijing’s craft taprooms only came in one size: tiny. Now, every new opening brings us another colossal beer house. There are plenty of empty tables at Legend, but there’s certainly some potential here. The brews aren’t bad, and (by virtue of not being a shitty club), it’s already our favorite venue in the Gongti complex.


Daily, 11am-3am; Worker's Stadium West Gate, Chaoyang(65519026)
