x/qing-dynasty
— Aug 19, 2026
Fangshan Restaurant in Beijing preserves imperial Qing Dynasty cuisine, founded in 1925 by former Qing chefs, and uses handcrafted pastries and storytelling at Beihai Park to connect diners with the imperial court’s rituals and dishes, including the famed dream pastry linked to Empress Dowager Cixi. The cuisine spans daily meals, grand banquets, and ceremonial rites, and today blends traditional techniques with modern adaptations to keep the traditions culturally relevant while evolving for contemporary tastes.
