Still Thoughts is an expat favorite for vegetarian dining in Beijing. It’s modest décor and small size give it a relaxing and intimate feel. If you’re looking for something posh or spectacular, this isn’t the place. If you’re looking for comfortable dining and great vegetarian food, then take a stab at finding Still Thoughts tucked back in an unassuming Hutong near the Meishuguan (Art Museum). Still Thoughts offers a large menu of mostly fake-meat dishes. There are also plenty of vegetable-only dishes. Some favorites are the spicy fake-pork intestines dry pot, shredded veggie duck pancakes, the sweet and sour lotus, and the fake-chicken hot pot. Their picture-book menus with English translations make ordering easy and the dishes you get look just like their picture. |
