    Guo Hua, owner of the Yuebin Restaurant, was visibly impressed to see snaking queues outside the doors of the eatery. Dubbed the country's first private restaurant after China's reform and opening up in the late 1970s, this hidden gem has managed to capture the hearts and taste buds of those who seek out its delectable offerings despite its humble appearance.

    "We would normally see our first batch of customers after 11:30 a.m.. It's our first day of business after the Spring Festival, and I didn't anticipate having so many people early in the morning," Guo said.

    The restaurant's interior spans more than 40 square meters and accommodates 11 dining tables, which makes the space feel slightly cramped. The walls are adorned with old photos of the elder generations of restaurant owners.

    During lunchtime, the place was swarming with customers eagerly waiting to try its specialty dishes that have been passed down for decades. The restaurant's famous fried meatballs and sweet and sour pork ribs were served on tables, adding to the lively atmosphere.

    Yuebin Restaurant first opened in 1980. To preserve the memory of the old days, the restaurant has retained its old facade and name. Over the past 43 years, guests from far and wide have come here to taste traditional Beijing dishes and feel the pulse of the times.
