　　You won’t be able to stop eating. We promise

　　Braised pork belly with abalone

　　Cai Yi Xuan

　　Luscious,9体育 fatty cubes of pork belly are ‘red-braised’, or hongshao, in light and dark soy sauce and aromatics – a common enough treatment, sure, but this version’s been turned up to 11 with slabs of abalone and generous shavings of black truffle. Oh hell yeah.

　　Price358RMB (plus 10 percent service and 6 percent VAT).

　　Where?Cai Yi Xuan, Second Floor, Four Seasons Beijing, 48 Liangmaqiao Lu, Chaoyang district.

　　Red miso braised tendon

　　Vin Vie

　　It’s hard to order poorly at Vin Vie, so you’ll always have that on your side. But with this one, the kitchen’s really pulled out all the stops. Achingly soft tendon (still with a bit of chew) has been braised in red miso until submission, then – blammo! – a soft boiled egg. Get baguette slices for dipping and you’re set. This is such a perfect winter dish that you’ll even want it in summer.

　　Price45RMB.

　　Where? Vin Vie, 8 Maizidian Jie (off Nongzhanguan Bei Lu, across from Home Inn), Chaoyang district.

　　Shakshuka

　　Toast at The Orchid

　　The Shaksuka (a traditional Middle Eastern breakfast bowl) at The Orchid combines two poached eggs on a seasoned tomato base with a side of zhug – a mixture of coriander and chilli paste, and some toasted bings to help shovel it all down. This hearty skillet also comes with fruit.

　　Price70RMB.

　　Where?Toast at The Orchid, 65 Baochao Hutong, Dongcheng district.

　　Chicken with sweet sour sauce

　　Nanjing Impressions

　　A little bit spicy, a little bit sweet and a little bit sour, this is pretty much perfection in a pot. It’s the ultimate balancing act that Chinese cuisines excel at. Don’t like chicken? You will now. It’s impossible to resist snapping up strips of this succulent wangfu paojiao ji(王府泡椒鸡).

　　Price 32RMB.

　　Where?Nanjing Impressions Fourth Floor, Shimao Department Store, 13 Gongti Bei Lu, Chaoyang district.

　　Donkey Burger

　　Wang Pangzi

　　If we had to pick a sammie to be king of the Middle Kingdom, it’d be the donkey ‘burger’ (lürou huoshao, 驴肉火烧). Lean, protein-rich meat packed into an impossibly flaky bun – you’ll fall in love with this donkey quicker than Eeyore.

　　Price 10RMB.

　　Where? Wang Pangzi, 92 Dongsi Bei Dajie, Chaoyang district.

　　Beef carpaccio

　　One Pot

　　Can one bite be a dish? At the hands of chef Andrew Ahn, it is. Beef carpaccio is great any way you cut it, but Ahn has upped the game in a serious way. A paper-thin slice of beef is wrapped around a sesame-soy-sauce ‘sphere’ and a raw quail egg, then topped with black truffle, pear, pine nuts, and chive. It packs the punch of a full meal in only a bite. We’re all in.

　　Price 18RMB per piece.

　　Where?One Pot, B1-238, Tower 2, Sanlitun Soho, Gongti Bei Lu, Chaoyang district.

　　Dandan Mian

　　Transit

　　Complex, mesmerising, and with a squeeze of lime, this is dandan mianlike you’ve never had it. When you can get a bowl for 6RMB, why would you ever pay more than five times that? Cause it’s elegant, inventive and there’s nothing else in the world like it.

　　Price 35RMB.

　　Where? Transit N4-36, Third Floor, Taikoo Li North, Sanlitun Lu, Chaoyang district.

　　Twice-cooked pork

　　Zhang Mama

　　Sure, sometimes you want inventive, but other times you just want a blow-your-socks-off rendition of a classic. And this is exactly what Zhang Mama serves up. Packing blistering chilli heat, yet still surprisingly complex, this is a huiguo rou (回锅肉) you won’t forget.

　　Price28RMB.

　　Where?Zhang Mama, 76 Jiaodaokou Nan Dajie, Dongcheng district and 4 Fensiting Hutong, Dongcheng district.

　　Sole meunière

　　Bistrot B

　　Douse anything in brown butter and it's hard not to love. But Bistrot B's version of the French classic is exceptional – you won't just fall in love, you'll be obssessing. Tender sole lightly battered, pan-fried and anointed with a browned butter, parsley and lemon sauce studded with capers. Count our hearts conquered.

　　Price280RMB (plus 10 percent service and 6 percent VAT).

　　Where?Bistrot B, First floor, Jing Guang Centre, Rosewood Beijing, 1 Chaoyangmenwai Dajie, Chaoyang district.

　　Tempura

　　Xi Yi Lang

　　So, it's not exactly a single dish, but the tempura – pretty much all of it – at Xi Yi Lang is unbeatable. How can you choose just one ingredient? We've picked a whole menu. Go for the 300RMB set which will load you up with more ethereally light, fried goodness than you can imagine.

　　Where? Xi Yi Lang, 101, Building 20, New 5 Building, Vanke Park, Tianshuiyuan Jie, Chaoyang district.

　　You'po mian

　　Ling Er Jiu

　　We call these ‘crack noodles’. Spicy from the chilli, tangy from the vinegar and with the perfect amount of chew, you’ll be addicted in no time. Unlike any other you’po chemian(油泼扯面)… there must be something extra in the He family’s ‘secret sauce’.

　　Pistachio trio

　　Opera Bombana

　　If you turn down a threesome covered in gold flakes any time, you’re a fool. But it’s especially true at Opera, where pistachio in three ways – ice cream, custard and whole nuts – form a sultry, unforgettable trio. It’s not on the menu anymore, but order and thou shalt receive.

　　Price 128RMB.

　　Where? Opera Bombana, LG2-21 Parkview Green Fangcaodi, 9 Dongdaqiao Lu, Chaoyang district.

　　Dessert platter

　　Mercante

　　The house-made pappardelle with rabbit ragu wasn’t enough? Brace yourself for the creamiest panna cotta in the city, an ultra-rich, espresso-packed tirasmisu and an Italian rice pudding cake. It’s unreal.

　　Price58RMB.

　　Where?Mercante, 4 Fangzhuanchang Hutong, Dongcheng district.
