Mifan or Mafan: Chunli Chifan Gongsi

Sanlitun’s Bar Street is a notorious shapeshifter – from its bars to its street food offerings. The modest food stalls that once dotted the boozy block were transformed into upscale snack joints. The latest addition comes courtesy of the Chunli brand – you might know them from their recent hole-in-the-wall coffee spot a few blocks away. 

Chunli Chifan looks like a Hong Kong diner from the ‘50s, with a design so cool we can’t help but sneak a photo. The food offerings are just as attractive: They serve six variants of delicious Taiwanese guabao (RMB32-42) – basically a less greasy roujiamo – plus a decent selection of fried sides and drinks.
