Drawn by the aroma of simmering spices, we arrive at Sandie Shui. This isn’t just a restaurant. It’s a portal. Sandie Shui transports you from the bustling streets of Beijing to the charming town of Lijiang in Yunnan province. The inspiration for Sandie Shui came from Beijingers who, captivated by Lijiang’s beauty, brought back a culinary treasure: Lijiang pork spareribs hot pot. This Naxi specialty is the heart and soul of Sandie Shui. Imagine a rich broth, brimming with tomatoes, potatoes, celery, and mint. More than a dozen tender, lean spareribs swim in this flavorful pool. At Sandie Shui, the portions are generous. You might be tempted to order extra ribs. But trust me, save room for the luoguo fan. This isn’t your ordinary rice. It’s steamed in a bronze urn with lightly fried potatoes, creating a symphony of textures and flavors. Sandie Shui offers more than just delicious food. It’s an experience. They have a homemade rice wine, sweet and potent. For those seeking something different, Sandie Shui also boasts a selection of Yunnan alcohols, including Dali green plum wine, a perfect way to end your meal. Sandie Shui is located in Dongcheng District, a stone’s throw from Gulou Dongdajie and Nanluoguxiang. It’s tucked away on Donggong Jie. Turn right at the first alley west of Jiaodaokou, and you’ll find this hidden gem. Sandie Shui isn’t just a meal. It’s a journey. A journey to Lijiang, without ever leaving Beijing.
