This ain’t your average donkey meat sandwich. Nope, most of us never would’ve guessed that the cheap snack once ubiquitous in the streets of pre-Great Brickening Beijing would now be sold at a trendy shop in the ritzy Taikooli Mall. But yet, like almost everything else forced out of the alleys, donkey sandwiches have found a new upscale home, this time in Xiexie Tea.
While the donkey meat version is our favorite, other bao options include gravy pork, plain chicken, barbecue pineapple curry chicken, lobster and pork, and a number of others, so if the idea of donkey meat turns you off, you've still got plenty of alternatives.
Xiexie Tea of course also serves tea, and in a style meant to rival KOL magnet Hey Tea and its swaths of imitators. They have classic bubble teas, no-added-sugar teas, fruit teas, and others all priced around RMB 30.
