(Season 1, Episode 4)
To truly appreciate Beijing’s bar scene, a visit to one of the capital’s authentic hutong(narrow alley in Chinese) bars is a must. “Mao Mao Chong”, which means caterpillar in Chinese, is a cocktail haven located in the old Dongcheng District. Having been around for more than a decade, it has become a favorite hangout among liquor lovers. The casual, arty atmosphere allows you to fully relax and feel at home, without any pretentiousness. While it’s renowned for its classic cocktails, you can also satisfy your palate with their homemade pizzas, which are delectable and reasonable priced. Ask owner Eric for cocktail and pizza pointers!
