    New Issue of beijingkids: Best Family Eats

    Submitted on Jan 7, 2009 9:00am

    beijingkids rings in the new year with our annual family dining guide, replete with 54 top picks for restaurants that both parents and kids will love. We scoured the city to find the most family-friendly establishments and rated them on everything from whether the aisles are stroller-friendly and if they have playrooms to whether the non-smoking sections are really non-smoking.

    Want to know where to indulge in mango madness with the family and which restaurant has the best healthy desserts? We also tell you where to go for a romantic dinner, a restaurant where you’ll actually want the little ones to eat with their hands, and the best destination brunch in the city.

    Spring Festival starts on January 26, and with the holiday comes Beijing’s famed temple fairs. Check out Amani Zhang’s guide to the fairs at various parks, where you can find kung fu performances, acrobats, the city’s best stilt-walkers, reenactments from Chinese literature, and even a high-tech celebration in Zhongguancun. And if you need to bone up on the basics of Spring Festival, Cecily Huang has the primer on what China’s most important holiday is all about.
