Mending meat pie or Mending meat pie is a traditional snack in Beijing. It was named because it was shaped like a door nail on a city gate in ancient times.
Many famous snacks in Beijing are related to the Empress Dowager Cixi, and Mending Meat Pie is no exception. One day, the chef at the Imperial Kitchen made a stuffed dessert for Cixi. After eating, Cixi found the taste delicious and liked it very much, so she asked what kind of food it was. There was no name at the time, but the queen mother asked, I can’t say I don’t know. So, the chef thought of the nail cap on the palace gate, so he said casually: "This is called'door nail meat pie'". The door nail patties were thus born. "
