Jiasan is located at No. 93 Beiyuanmen on Huimin Street, near the Drum Tower. It is the most famous soup dumpling restaurant in the Muslim Quarter. Its signatures are beef and mutton soup dumplings, which are often paired with eight-treasure sweet congee. The menu also features sesame paste liangpi and halal stir-fries. The restaurant offers indoor seating where you can sit down and enjoy your meal comfortably, making it a more relaxing option than street stalls. The average cost is about CNY 30 to 37 per person, with a Ctrip rating of 4.4. Some diners note that the dumpling skins break easily and opinions on value for money vary, while the eight-treasure congee can be quite sweet.
