Best Dining Bets 2

  Best Asian (non-Chinese): Stylish decor and creative rolls make Hatsune the best Japanese option in Beijing. Overpriced but superbly decorated, Nuage in the Back Lakes offers creative Vietnamese. Cafe Sambal is much the same for Malaysian cuisine. The gaudily decorated Xiyu Shifu provides Beijing with its best Uighur food, including some divine lamb skewers.

Best Wine List: High import duties and poor selection make life in Beijing tough on wine drinkers. But The CourtYard, one of the city's most celebrated restaurants, both for its excellent menu and for its location in a courtyard house overlooking the Forbidden City moat, offers an astonishingly sophisticated wine selection you'd have to go to Hong Kong to equal, with many top wines available by the glass.

Best Quintessential Beijing Setting: Built inside the prayer hall of an old Daoist temple in a sea of crumbling residences near the Back Lakes, Dao eschews the polished gardens and pavilions of the city's other atmospheric restaurants in favor of something far more appropriate: the fast-fading intimacy of one of Beijing's last hutong neighborhoods.

Best Decor: With its high ceiling, pleasing juxtaposition of black and white furnishings, and gracious owner, Green T. House is the most stylish restaurant in Beijing. Flavorful and artfully arranged fusion dishes complete the visual package.

Best Breakfast: Despite the appalling service, Riverside Cafe would be our first choice for breakfast, but it only offers a full breakfast menu on weekends. For a hearty American-style breakfast every day of the week, Steak & Eggs, run by a former navy chef, should be your first choice. They even have grits.

Best Coffee: Despite the silly name, Tasty Taste, just west of the Worker's Stadium, is the city's best alternative to Starbucks. The cakes are excellent, and the Italian coffee hits the spot every time.
