We will sample Beijing traditional street food (Dalian Baked Bun), and Mongolian BBQ in two restaurants. The history of Dalian Baked Bun dates back to the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. We often confuse pot stickers with Dalian Baked Bun. In fact, pot stickers have a shape similar to the dumplings we often eat, while the appearance of Dalian Baked Bun resembles the cloth bags that Northern people used to carry when going out to markets in the past. Particularly when made with softer dough, when picked up by chopsticks from the middle, the two ends droop down, hence the name.
