Pizza Hut in China is FANCY! Reviewing Pizza Hut's Beijing Menu

  • Pizza Hut is one of the most popular restaurant chains in China. No I really mean it, it's wildly popular with a location in almost every shopping mall. But Pizza Hut in China is not the same menu as in the US. The Chinese Pizza Hut menu is much larger and much different than Pizza Hut in the west. Pizza Hut was once made into a much more luxurious restaurant in China, in fact several China pizza hut fine dining restaurants still exist to this day. But Pizza Hut today, while transitioning to a more approachable fast casual restaurant in China. Pizza Hut China and Genshin Impact have a partnership, so locations often feature Genshin Impact characters and have a more fun cartoonish vibe. Pizza Hut in China still maintains many upscale food items though. These include beef wellington, steak, tiramisu, chocolate lava cake, and much more. As for the pizza itself? You can expect pizza hut China to have Mongolian barbecue and wagyu beef as toppings.
    It's always a lot of fun to try familiar brands in other countries to see what may be similar and what may be much different. While the food at Pizza Hut in Beijing may look fancy though, looks can often be deceiving and it may not taste as good as it looks. We will find out in this China food vlog if Pizza Hut in China is legit and one of the best local eats in Beijing, or if PIzza Hut is overrated, cheap fast food, and not one of the best cheap eats in China.

    over 10 years ago i went to a pizza hut in El Salvador! the pizza I had there still lives in my dreams today. It was a fancy sit down place there too! The crust was perfectly crispy, the vegetables on my supreme pizza were so fresh and ever since then I have loved green pepper in my pizza. That was my first time at a pizza hut, and I foolishly went to one in the US thinking it would be the same. I was SO disappointed!!!

    When I lived in Beijing in 2001, Pizza Hut was located in the old Russian Embassy (which had Standard American plumbing fixtures). At that time, the high point was the salad bar. You could help yourself to one serving. I was amazed when I saw the local patrons build these humungous salad towers stacked like the Eifel Tower. They had to have engineering degrees to stack all the salad ingredients and be able to take it back to the table in one piece. Now that you know how good a vegetarian dish can taste, even at Pizza Hut, you must try Gong da lin at 2 Qianmen E St, Dongcheng, in Beijing. It's all vegetarian and it's no exaggeration to say each dish is an artistic masterpiece. You will definitely enjoy the creative flavors and textures.

    I've lived in Zhengzhou, Henan for the past 5 years. There's a Pizza hut on my block. The prices are reasonable for take out, but the pizza's just not that good. The crust is doughy and there's too many strangely diverse toppings - pineapple and sausage? - you can't get a simple pepperoni pizza. Now, I only got pizza for take out, so I can't speak to the rest of the menu - they even serve breakfast. Yes, Pizza Hut in China serves breakfast. Good luck with that.
