Cesar from Madrid

Jin Yun Shao Bing Madrid

Flavors of Jin Jun in Madrid

"Unlike the pan-fried versions found closeby, their shaobing is grilled to perfection, giving it a distinct texture & flavor that's both rustic and refined."

Tucked away in the vibrant streets of Usera, Madrid's very own China Town, Jin Jun Shao Bing with just six tables, offers diners an intimate glimpse into authentic Chinese culinary traditions.

While the menu is concise, it speaks volumes about the restaurant's dedication to quality and authenticity. The star of the show is undoubtedly the shaobing, a dish that sets Jin Jun apart from its contemporaries. Unlike the pan-fried versions commonly found in the area, their shaobing is grilled to perfection, giving it a distinct texture and flavor that's both rustic and refined.

The beauty of Jin Jun Shao Bing lies not just in its flavors, but also in its affordability. Despite serving dishes of impeccable quality, the prices are incredibly pocket-friendly, making it a go-to spot for locals seeking an authentic and budget-friendly dining experience.

Jin Jun Shao Bing is a sample of the rich tapestry of Chinese cuisine. It's where tradition meets passion, and every bite transports you straight to the heart of China — a must-see gem in the middle of Madrid's bustling Chinatown.

Mercado de Chamberí

On-trend tradition

Each covered market has its own flavour; Chamberí I would say is high quality and traditional but also one that has adapted successfully to the times.
