Every person who likes to dabble in the kitchen should visit this place. Sanyuanli Market is where you can find the rare ingredients needed to cook that special dish from home and source specific cuts. It’s where many Western restaurants go for their ingredients and a beloved gem for amateur chefs all over the city. Each stall sells its own specialty, and most are not the shrink-wrapped stuff you find in supermarkets. Here, you can find fresh cuts from the butcher. And from what I’ve discovered over the years, if you don’t see what you’re looking for, don’t hesitate to ask. At Sanyuanli, I was able to purchase turkey even in the middle of summer. The less common stuff is usually kept in the freezer, and even if they don’t have it there right that second, they can add you on WeChat and source it for you.
Find it:
Shunyuan Jie (opposite Jingkelong Supermarket, west of Sanyuan Dongqiao), Chaoyang District
朝阳区顺源街(三元东桥往西京客隆超市对面)
Open: Daily 5am-7pm
