For Every Craft Beer You Drink, Hutong Pizza You Eat, RMB 15 Will be Automatically Donated To Funding Books for The Library Project 

A charitable event concept, “Beers for Books” never made donating so easy.

A simple, straight-forward concept created by the good people of Great Leap Brewing and Hutong Pizza 胡同比萨 who have joined forces to support The Library Project, a charity that donates all the components that encompass a complete library -including books, furniture, and teacher training-to rural elementary schools, orphanages and community centers in both China and Vietnam.

Just show up this Saturday, February 2nd with an appetite for beer and pizza and for every Great Leap Beer beer purchased or Hutong Pizza purchased between 4PM-10PM, RMB 15 will be donated to The Library Project’s fund towards books for an under-financed primary school in Hebei Province, China.  Every RMB 15 can buy 3 books for this rural Hebei school, which will undoubtedly spread both wisdom, joy and knowledge to these rural children.

Mr. Shi’s 老石饺子: Delicious Gulou Hutong Dumplings

Mr. Shi’s Dumplings

Located on Baochao Hutong just across from The Orchid Boutique Hutong Hotel and Hani GeJiu 哈尼个旧 Yunnan Restaurant is Mr. Shi’s Dumplings restaurant, which is unlike the other dumpling favorite hot spots in Beijing because it totally caters to foreigners.

The menus are in English, the walls of the restaurant are covered in international flags, tables are decorated with foreign currency under the glass tabletop, and the entire restaurant was filled with pretty much 90% foreigners.  It could have just been a fluke the night I came here for dinner, but I think that Mr. Shi’s Dumplings is definitely catering to foreigners and especially to visiting tourists with a sign in the window that says “Welcome to Beijing”.

While foreigners may also pay visits to other popular dumpling destinations like Xian Lao Man 馅老满 on Andingmennei dajie and Bao Yuan Dumpling House 宝源饺子屋in Maizidian, Mr. Shi’s Dumplings restaurant was packed with almost all foreigners.
