北京东方新天地 / Beijing Oriental Plaza

Beijing Oriental Plaza appears in Vol.270 大食代留在了它的时代 as the Wangfujing shopping-center location where the episode says Beijing’s last 大食代 / Food Republic closed on June 15. The source uses the basement food-court closure less as a full mall case and more as a visible signal that the old mall food-court model has lost its earlier inevitability.

The location matters because it shows how a once-useful tenant category can become replaceable inside a mature city-center mall. When landlords can lease restaurants directly, bring in chain brands, or redesign food areas themselves, the value of an external food-court second landlord falls.
