Courtesy of the Mosto Group, Nali Patio’s latest offering is Burger Box, a tiny chic burger joint right beside the group’s recently relocated Moka Bros. The funky concept and their use of fresh Aussie beef, matched with our unwavering loyalty to anything the Mosto team comes up with, has us ready and willing to get into these burgers in a big way.

Stream Bar

Two words that come to mind as we enter Stream Bar: oh, lord. We’re first greeted by a blindfolded Roman statue and welcomed into an interior that would make Austin Powers proud – it’s groovy, baby. From the long tunnel painted in deep red, shag carpets on the seats, another statue (with scattered statue heads about) and an expansive bar, it’s definitely a provoking space. Oh, and there’s a slide, too.

Tang by Meeting Someone

Tang, a stylish new restaurant from the people that brought you the original Meeting Someone and Eye, is gloriously situated atop the Uniqlo in Taikoo Li (really, you actually need to use the back elevators to get to the restaurant). It’s a high-end place, with grand light fixtures and modern seating – even pleather pillows in the booths. The establishment is clearly meant to cater toward a more sophisticated crowd, or at least those who pretend to be on social media.

CLOSED Eli’s Italian Bar

This simple gelato shop moved onto Guloudong Dajie rather quietly. Enjoy a scoop or two of the cool Italian treat on the rooftop upstairs where you can hide out for a few moments, away from the noisy street crowds down below.

CLOSED: Mai Fresh Liangmaqiao

Mai Fresh’s second location in Liangmaqiao resembles its original trendy brunch space, offering its same menu, though in a smaller space and without a rooftop this time around.

Cabo Coffee

Joining forces with a flower shop, Cabo Coffee is an unusual new addition among the brightly lit (and highly questionable) bars along Sanlitun’s bar street. With limited seating and a calming fragrance of flowers, the artisan coffee shop is sweet and snug.

Zakuzaku

Squished into a corner in Taikoo Li South, famed Japanese pastry shop Zakuzaku looks like any bubbly ice cream spot in Beijing – except ice cream isn’t their pride and joy. No, the hyped-up star of the show here is the Croquant Chou, a custard-filled pastry puff.
