EAT: Your bite-sized guide to the best eats to be had in Beijing this week.
Hulu by WAB x Pebbles
Hulu's Shunyi location is continuing its run of successful collabs with other Beijing restaurants, this time teaming up with popular Mexican restaurant Pebbles Courtyard. Pebbles will be serving five different dishes (RMB 58-188), including homemade corn empanadas, tacos with pulled pork or skirt steak, and grilled seabass with red and green adobo marinades, as well as two drinks (expect margaritas). Catch the pop-up at lunch and dinner on July 17-18.
Summer specials at Brotzeit
Think German food is all heavy pork and potato dishes? Brotzeit's summer menu will have you thinking again, thanks to dishes like pan-seared scallops with passion fruit purée, grilled rainbow trout with parsley butter potatoes, and Bavarian white sausage and radish summer salad. Of course, meat is still on the menu in the form of the barbecue platter, which covers everything from lamb skewers to honey-glazed chicken legs to pork cheese sausages (perfect with their daily BOGOF happy hour, which runs from 4-7pm and includes wine, cocktails, and German beer). The menu is available at Brotzeit's Grand Summit and China World Mall locations.

Tribe is keeping things healthy and seasonal with their new summer menu items. Expect dishes that will help you pack in your five-a-day alongside hearty servings of slow-release carbs and lean protein. Take the Lazy Days Togu Bulghur Bowl (pictured above), for example, which combines grilled tofu with bulgur wheat, broccoli, avocado, white miso, lemon, and maple dressing. Refresh on a hot day with a selection of new cold drinks, including a jasmine tea and fruit juice cooler or the mango and coconut drink with added sago, a twist on a classic Cantonese drink.
New veggie-forward options at Gung Ho! Pizza
Gung Ho! Pizza continues to prove (as if we needed proof) that committing to a veggie-forward diet doesn't mean you need to give up comfort food. Their new menu includes veggie pizza options such as the black truffle pizza and roasted garden pizza, the latter featuring a bevy of summer's best produce, including zucchini, eggplant, bell pepper, tomatoes, and baby corn (both pizzas can be made vegan). There are six new salads to choose from (we're hearing good things about the tri-color quinoa salad and the mixed mushroom salad), as well as a skewer sharing platter with pineapple and prawn skewers, lamb skewers, king trumpet mushroom and tomato skewers, and bell pepper and tofu skewers (bring a non-veg friend along to indulge in the first two). Enjoy 20 percent off the summer menu on Fridays.
New set lunch options at N'Joy, Nuo Beijing
Travel the world without ever leaving Beijing with the new set lunches on offer at N'Joy. Choose from Korean bibimbap (RMB 108), shawarma with shish taouk, hummus, and baba ganoush (RMB 108), butter chicken with rice, naan, poppadums, raita, and mixed pickle (RMB 98, pictured above), and several more. The Indian section at N'Joy's Sunday buffet has always been a hit when we've visited, so that latter set looks like a good option. Check out more deals from Nuo's other dining venues on their WeChat.
