This Eid al-Fitr, join our hosts Tianran He and Eva May in Niujie "Ox" Street, home to Beijing's largest community of ethnic Hui people, many of whom are Muslim. Today, we're at Hongji Snacks, a family-run eatery where queues stretch around the block for their famous desserts and snacks.
From cakes made out of peas to curiously named desserts like "donkey rolling on the ground" and "toad spitting honey", we'll put everything to the taste test and learn about the fun stories behind the strange names. So, which one do you want to try?
