About the Black Pearl Restaurant Guide:

Launched in 2018 by Meituan, the Black Pearl Restaurant Guide is the first restaurant guide that proposes a standard for Chinese food and aims to create a restaurant guide with a unique Chinese perspective. The Guide is published annually and all restaurants are evaluated based on culinary skills, consumer experience, and inheritance and innovation. Black Pearl restaurants are increasingly representing the food culture of their cities, setting benchmarks for delicate catering in China and becoming important windows to spread China's food culture.

In 2023,

26 restaurants in Chaoyang District were selected on the list,

including 4 two-diamond and 22 one-diamond restaurants.

Most of them are located in the CBD, the Liangma River, and Sanlitun.

This year, the Black Pearl restaurants in Chaoyang District cover

a total of 14 cuisines,

There is not only representative Chinese food

such as Beijing and Shandong cuisines, Shanghai cuisine, and hot pot, but also international delicacies like Japanese, French,

and Italian cuisines,

which can satisfy different consumer groups.
