Frommer's Review
Chinese vegetarian restaurants often get bogged down torturing meaty flavors out of gluten, but here you'll find delectable dishes with high-quality ingredients. Start with the hearty shanyao geng (yam broth with mushrooms) and the slightly fruity liangban zi lusun (purple asparagus salad), followed by ruyi haitai juan (vegetarian sushi rolls) and the excellent huangdi sun shao wanzi (Imperial bamboo shoots and vegetarian meatballs). When in season, their vegetables are sourced from an organic farm west of Beijing, so ask if they have any organic vegetables (youji shucai). Monks dine for free, so you're likely to meet a few from Guangji Si in the evening. Watch your head in the bathroom.
