BEIJING, April 9 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Food has always been important to China and when visiting the Mainland it's easy to see that the dining opportunities are endless. As the capital city continues to grow, visitors can now revel in the culinary choices from a vast selection of international restaurants. Of course, good Chinese meals will always be part of the itinerary but as The China Guide ( http://www.TheChinaGuide.com ) suggests, visitors should also indulge in some worldly cuisine.

The China Guide, a trendy Beijing-based travel specialist, is encouraging travelers to try a wide-range of dining options and will help their guests narrow down the best Beijing restaurant choices. "We offer custom tour itineraries for Beijing and all of China and one of the most important aspects for our clients is food," says Peter Danford, Managing Director of The China Guide. "Travelers don't always realize what an international city Beijing has become and that means the dining scene has grown immensely in the last few years. Visitors can get the best of local cuisine and flavour as well as take time to experience genuine tastes from around the world."

International restaurants can be found throughout the capital city, especially popular in many of the high-end hotels now available. The international hotel chains commonly feature world-renowned chefs who offer a unique spin on world cuisine as well as intricate brunch menus and buffets. Another notable area is the Sanlitun Village, which is noted as the city's high-end restaurant hub. Here visitors will find a variety of selection from Italian and American to Japanese, French, Thai and many more. Famous areas in Beijing are also now offering high quality dining spots including the historical Qianmen Street, across from Tiananmen Square. The newly opened Capital M restaurant offers gourmet European cuisine accompanied by picturesque views overlooking the Forbidden City.

"These international spots not only offer some of the world's finest dishes but provide beautifully designed interiors that make the dining experience unique," adds Danford.

The growing international dining scene in Beijing has not only given visitors a variety of entrees but increased the selection of wines, cocktails, coffees, deserts and bakeries.

The China Guide is excited to offer visitors a unique dining experience that includes both Chinese cuisine as well as world flavours, as part of a custom itinerary.
