Lao Beijing, another of chef Tony Hu's gems, seeks to serve unadulterated Northern Chinese cuisine. The interiors are aesthetically pleasing, with red walls and comfortable furniture giving the place a very casual and carefree vibe to the place. The place is a hot spot for people wanting to eat gorgeous food and have a nice, fun filled banter.

Overall a great stop but with a few pitfalls. Among the things that were great: the country style shredded beef was recommended by our server and may be my new favorite dish. This beef was...

The Xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) were a huge disappointment; in fact they were dry inside, no soup whatsoever. Mapo tofu lacked traditional spices. Scallion pancake, Sichuan green beans, and...
