Encyclopedia of Eats

Hands up if you're guilty of always ordering the same thing. When you're comfortable in the bubble of what you like, it's hard to break the habit of eating the same old dishes from your favourite restaurants. To remedy this, we've teamed up with Beer The Beautiful Truth so you can educate yourself with our handy, dandy Encyclopedia of Eats.

Learn your way around the dishes you haven't tried, but should definitely start ordering. Try alternatives to the standard steamed pork and chive dumplings (those are called zheng jiao by the way), and move past the butter chicken to enter the world of Indian street food.

Also, we'd be remiss not to pair these tasty eats with some refreshing brews. As you learn the history, eating etiquette and various varieties of your favourite cuisines, Beer The Beautiful Truth will take you through the best beers to pair with each gustatory delight. With so many tasty treats to try (and pair with a cold one) you'll kick yourself for not starting sooner. Tuck into this culinary know-how, and go forth confidently to taste test your new knowledge — your mind, stomach and appetite will thank you.
