Restaurants will be really busy during the holiday season, especially on Sunday, Spring Festival Eve. So it's advisable to book your table in advance. BJW recommends the following restaurants for the Spring Festival holiday.

Peking roast duck giant Quan Ju De(全聚德雙榆樹店) has just opened its 10th branch in Beijing at Shuangyushu, North Third Ring Road. Apart from trademark closed oven roast duck, it offers a "complete banquet of duck dishes", including duck claw, duck liver, duck roll with egg yolk and quick-fried duck heart. It also has classic dishes from Sichuan, Cantonese and Hunan.

The restaurant takes up the 3rd and 4th floors of Henrun International Building. There are 32 private rooms and a public area decorated in traditional Chinese style. It has a lucky draw during the Spring Festival and several set menus to choose from.

11am-2:30pm, 5-9pm. 3/F, 4/F, Henrun International Building, Western North Third Ring Road, Haidian District. 150 m east of Shuang'an shopping mall, on the southern side of the road.

Li Chun, which falls on February 4, is a solar calendar term marking the beginning of spring. The day is associated with a dining tradition in Beijing called "bite spring".Hong Zhuang Yuan(宏狀元), one of the biggest specialized congee chain restaurants in Beijing, will be serving chun bing, a spring pancake with potato starch noodles, leek and egg, bean sprouts and pork slices. The stuffing is wrapped inside two pancakes and is a delicious seasonal dish.

Also available is the restaurant's "spring greeting" congee, which has chicken broth, chicken slices and dried scallop slices with rice. The restaurant's Li Chun set meal features the congee, as well as deep-fried spring roll and spring pancake with fried stuffing. The average meal will set you back less than 30 yuan.

(萬柳閣) Restaurant is located inside Longtan Park near Southern East Second Ring Road. It is decorated as a traditional Beijing-style courtyard house (siheyuan) but serves authentic Cantonese and Sichuan dishes, as well as Hong Kong hot pot. One tasty seafood dish is prawn balls with sliced squid (翠帶蝦球花枝片) and the Cantonese-style deep-fried dough stick (廣式油條) is also a must-try. Other seafood dishes like the abalone, shark fin and crabs are also good. Hot pot lovers have a rather special version to sample: a healthy millet-based soup, plus lamb slices, beef rolls, mashed prawns and squid noodles.

Several of the 8 private rooms have good views of a nearby lake. Average bill: 100 yuan per person. 10am-2pm, 4:30-9pm. 6719-2882. 崇文區龍潭路2號(龍潭公園北門向東到頭右轉100米)
