Beijing Hutong breakfast food tour review - Jim was a great guide! Very friendly, personable and knowledgeable! The tour was a very fun experience for my family and I. We tasted a lot of local food that we otherwise would not have known to order. Highly recommend this tour for anybody who loves food or just wants to experience a bit of the local food culture.

11/09/2024 breakfast hutong tour - The tour was in an interesting suburban part of Beijing, set amongst the hutongs and traditional food stops. I enjoyed most but not all of the food items. There was a lot of food types to try. I particularly enjoyed learning about the hutongs and Beijing history and culture. Fun eating in the kitchen when no room in the restaurant. All the shop owners were very friendly

Highly recommend to try this breakfast food tour! Will walk away full for the whole day! - Breakfast tour that kept us full all day. Tour guide was Winnie and she was lovely and informative. We went to 5 plus restaurants and tried so many different foods we just wouldn’t have tried without going on this tour. Was about 3 1/2 hours (only us two + Winnie) and explored a part of Beijing we would have otherwise missed. Highly recommend Lost Plate Food tours and Winnie. Thanks Winnie for a good morning!

The Ultimate Breakfast Adventure in Beijing 🥢🥮🇨🇳 - We had an unforgettable experience with Lost Plate on the Beijing Breakfast Hutong Food Tour! It wasn’t just a food tour — it was a deep dive into Beijing’s rich culture and history.
Our guide, Kelly, was incredibly knowledgeable, and her passion made the whole experience even more engaging. Time flew by as we strolled through the charming Hutong district, nestled around one of Beijing’s iconic pagodas.
The variety of breakfast dishes we tried was mind-blowing! From Imperial Beijing Snacks (my absolute favourite!) to all kinds of Baos, Egg-filled Pancakes, and Meat Buns — the sweet and savoury options seemed endless! 🍞🍯🥐🥡 Each stop at a small, local shop revealed new and exciting flavours that we’ll never forget.
If you’re in Beijing and want an authentic taste of the city, don’t miss this tour. Highly recommended!

Unforgettable experience! - The tour was amazing! It was the best thing we could do in our first day in Beijing. Our guide was Jim and he did a great job, took us to places which we would never find, had a huge knowledge about food culture here and also gave us Some advices about travelling around the city. Chosen food was interesting and tasty. We're going to visit again some of shown places. It was very Chinese experience, definitely Worth its price!
If we have an opportunity, we'll take similar thips by the Lost Plate in other cities!

Fun food, great walking tour - Be sure to arrive hungry because you won't want to miss any of the treats! My young teen sons and I were joined by a solo traveler and all had a great time with our guide. She was very knowledgeable about the area and history even though she'd only been giving tours for a few months. The area was super interesting and very unlike the rest of the city. And we were encouraged to try some things we never would have though to order on our own. Definitely a fun morning excursion.
