is like a generous gift prepared for the holiday table. The fishing time of Miyun Reservoir every year is always on the eve of National Day. At 0:00 on September 25, after a 6-month fishing moratorium, Miyun Reservoir ushered in a fishing day. On this day, more than 200 small boats sailed into the reservoir area in the dark. In just two or three hours, they could bring back fat fish ranging from hundreds to two or three thousand kilograms.
How fat are the fish this year? "Compared with previous years, we have to add the word "more"." The fishermen have been staying by the reservoir for a long time. When talking about this year's fish, they still have an excitement. "The big one has to count fat-headed fish, which has more than 20 kilograms, and the harvest is quite considerable in one night."
Even though there are many professional and efficient cold chain transportation channels in Beijing, reservoir fish can already arrive at the city's dining tables on the same day through various channels, for those who are particular about diners, if they want to pursue extreme freshness, they may have to reach the reservoir and taste the "first-hand" fish flavor.
In Xiwengzhuang Town, Miyun District, the restaurants in the reservoir fish food street have never lacked business during the National Day holiday. The fish entered the restaurant pool early that morning. After being selected by diners, they were killed and then entered the stove pot. In just over ten minutes, the pot was filled with air. The "freshness" of the fish rose with the rolling fish soup, which smelled the eyes and noses of the table. It was time to start the meal.
Beijing News reporter learned from many reservoir fish restaurants that reservoir fish are generally larger today, most of which are around 7-8 kilograms. According to previous experience, there are more diners for lunch than in the evening. "If you can come early, there are more choices in choosing fish." Many restaurants also remind consumers that as long as the number of people in the traveler is not too many, ordinary families do not need to book seats in advance when they come to try it. "There are basically no waiting time for a long time. When you come, there will be a place."
Liugou Tofu Banquet, which has been popular for more than ten years, and it has been relying on this bite of tofu
Location: Liugou Village, Yanqing District
Tips: There are many passenger flows in the early stage of National Day, and the private room is about
every holiday, Wang Xiaojing's courtyard is always full. Photo provided by the respondent
follows Beijing-Xinxin Expressway all the way north, Yanqing Liugou is about 100 kilometers away from Beijing urban area. But the distance did not affect the famous "Liugou Tofu Banquet".
The name of Liugou Village comes from a large area of willow trees around the village several years ago and the deep ditch washed out by the flood. In Ming Dynasty , Jiajing Emperor built an ancient city here to prevent the invasion of Tatar . Hundreds of years later, the fortress has changed. It has not become famous because of the ruins. Instead, it was because in the winter in the north, the garrisons and local villagers improved the heating equipment and used brazier tofu and cabbage, which is the starting point of the reputation of Liugou tofu.
Unlike the traditional gypsum tofu and brine tofu that people think, "sour sour tofu" can be called the essence of Liugou tofu. The sour slurry produced by fermenting soy milk is used instead of tofu braised gypsum for tofu condensation, so that Liugou tofu has more honeycomb holes than other tofu, so the tofu also absorbs the flavor of the soup to the greatest extent, and has a better taste and richer and mellow aroma.
is as famous as tofu in Liugou, and it is affordable here. I will eat the serious tofu feast here, even if there are only two people, I will not be restricted by the small square table. In an ordinary restaurant, a large round table with a table of ten people is the standard configuration of any tofu feast farmhouse in Liugou.The farmhouse charges a per capita fee, and you can taste more than twenty dishes on a large table at a price of about 50 yuan per person.
Wang Xiaojing is a native of Liugou, Yanqing. The No. 81 courtyard she opened is not facing the street, and the main ones she relies on to continue operating are repeat customers. Usually, she would expand the staple food and side dishes of tofu banquets to more than 30 types. She said that in order to retain repeat customers, as a local from Liugou, she wanted to make some quality more.
Wang Xiaojing told reporters that during the National Day holiday, if diners who need private rooms or 20-person tables, they need to make reservations. If they need accommodation, they also need to call in advance to make an appointment. "Currently, there are more customers before the National Day, and it will be more relaxed in the next few days."
Yangfang mutton sauté, ensuring that the mouth is fresh mutton
Location: Yangfang Town, Changping District
Tips: National Day lunch is the most popular, and the meal time is not crowded

If you are unwilling to enter the suburbs, you can find delicious food in the suburbs. In the northwest of the capital, Yangfang Town, Changping District, has been a mutton market connecting the Inner Mongolia grasslands since the Liao Dynasty. In the past 40 years, the famous Yangfang Shabu pork has also been the first catering brand that most old Beijingers think of when talking about "copper pot Shabu".
In Yangfang, the mutton in the famous shabu-shabu restaurant mostly comes from Xilingol League in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. If we only talk about the number of sheep slaughtered, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is undoubtedly the "leader" of the country. In terms of quality, the entire autonomous region must be considered Xilingol League .
"Sheep" can occupy half of the fresh market. In front of the authentic mutton, the traditional clear soup copper pot is already the best partner. It doesn’t take too long to put the slices of meat into the copper pot. It is delicate and soft after entering the mouth. The soup base boiling in the charcoal fire will not let down the fresh fragrance of every trace of mutton.
Mr. Wang, head of the catering department of a shabu-shabu restaurant in Yangfang, told the Beijing News reporter that from July to October every year is the slaughtering season of Ximeng. Enterprises operate directly in factories on the grassland. After slaughtering, the mutton will enter Beijing's cold storage through the cold chain to supply the company's daily needs. Usually by this time, the mutton slaughtered last year has reached the stage of being sold out. "During the National Day holiday, we can ensure that the cured meat diners eat is the current fresh mutton, and there will be no backlog of goods."
Mr. Wang introduced that the restaurant's business during the National Day holiday was more popular than at night, but in most cases, there will be no long waits. If diners are worried about waiting for seats or being noisy, they can slightly stagger the meal time and come to have a meal at 11:00 or around 1:00 in the afternoon.

Fatty in autumn is not just about fish and meat, and there is no way to enjoy everything. In the Shisanling Town of Changping, as Xianrendong Village, the "No. 1 Vegetarian Village in Beijing", villagers can make dishes with excellent flavors with just a good skill without meat and fat.
Changping Xianren Cave Village is located in the east by the Thirteen Tombs Reservoir, the west by the Shenlu tourist attraction, and the north by the reservoir rampart road, and the thirteen Tombs tourist radiation area. In recent years, Xianren Cave Village has developed special brands such as vegetarian culture and boutique homestays, and the tourism industry has begun to take shape.
The culture of vegetarianism in villages comes from the long-lived elderly people here. Before becoming the most famous vegetarian village in Beijing, it was also a well-known "Changshou Village" with many people over 90 years old. The elderly in the village like to eat vegetarian dishes, so the village has selected dozens of dishes carefully polished and made of "meat" made of ingredients such as lotus root and gluten. After the entrance, it is enough to "get fake and real", which has also made the most famous vegetarian village in Beijing today.
In September 2016, the vegetarian banquet for the people of Xianren Cave Village opened. The skills that villagers learned from relevant training classes organized by the village committee have also withstood the test of the market, and more and more tourists are vegetarian food in Xianren Cave Village.Vegetarian food has emerged. In order to allow tourists to stay in the village more and drive the village's comprehensive industries such as enzyme fruits and vegetables, handmade production of farmers, accommodation has become an indispensable business project for the development of the village.
In Beijing urban area, vegetarian restaurants are generally not cheap, while in Xianren Cave Village, diners may as well eat openly. Xu Liying, general manager of Xianren Cave Village Tourism Management Professional Cooperative, told the Beijing News that restaurants charge more per capita, and generally, a single person costs 50 yuan to enjoy a sumptuous dish. "Of course, we also have higher-priced packages for diners to choose from. You can decide according to your own needs."
In addition, Xu Liying also reminds tourists who have plans to come and taste vegetarian food during the holidays. There are many tourists in the village, so they can book in advance to avoid waiting for seats.
