Description

Little Yunnan is a cosy, well-loved restaurant tucked away at No. 28 Huangchenggen North Street in Beijing’s Dongcheng District, near the scenic Houhai area. It’s set within a peaceful hutong courtyard, offering a quiet escape from the busy streets while remaining conveniently central. Since opening in 2010, the restaurant has gained a strong reputation for its warm hospitality and authentic Yunnan-style home cooking, attracting both locals and travellers seeking something regional and unique.

The menu focuses on the bright, bold flavours of Yunnan cuisine—famous for its use of herbs, sour notes, and spices. Highlights include sour papaya fish soup, Yunnan-style pork rib and potato hotpot, lemongrass chicken, and stir-fried truffled beef cubes. There’s also a variety of vegetarian dishes and small-pot rice noodles, all served with care and authenticity. Many of the ingredients are sourced from Yunnan province, adding a touch of home-style freshness to every bite. The food is approachable yet distinct, perfect for those unfamiliar with this vibrant southwestern Chinese cuisine.

The atmosphere at Little Yunnan is intimate and charming, with traditional red lanterns, rustic wooden furniture, and a soft, welcoming glow that makes it feel like dining in someone’s home. The vibe is relaxed and casual, ideal for a laid-back lunch or dinner. English-language menus with photos are available, and the staff are known for being friendly and accommodating—even going above and beyond to help guests when needed. There's no dress code, and the space is popular among expats, backpackers, and food lovers alike. Whether you’re looking to try something new or revisit favourite Yunnan flavours, Little Yunnan offers a delightful, down-to-earth experience in the heart of Beijing.
