dining, expatriate establishments and tourist traps in Beijing and Shanghai.That's all very nice, of course, but it makes one wonder: what about the budget traveler who just cannot afford all the luxury cuisine? What about the tight wallet of the foreign student who has to squeeze every yuan out of his/her scholarship to get by? The ESL teacher who needs to save money to return home? And of course, let's not forget the Chronic Cheapazoid who just doesn't want to spend anything???
If you belong to the categories above, then look no further, weary traveler, for you have found The Rock-Bottom Guide for Cheap Ass Food in Beijing!
This article dedicates itself to the Cheap Asses Currently Residing in Beijing: to find CHEAP FOOD AND FREE SHIT!

Bao Yuan Dumpling House

The combination of beer and dumplings is hard to beat, and one of the best places in Beijing to enjoy it is the Bao Yuan Dumpling House. Cheap and delicious. The menu is in English and Chinese and offers a range of dishes in addition to dumplings, but focus on what the restaurant does best. You can have the cooks vary the color of the outter skin of the dumplings to match what's inside of each. A plate of steaming purple and green dumplings is at least good for a conversation starter, so give the colors a try.
