Tastien is a Chinese fast food chain that specializes in burgers. As of April 2024, it has 7,254 locations[1] across 342 cities[2] in China.[3][4] Founded in 2012, the chain has expanded across China, offering fast food items with Chinese elements.[5]

Overview

[edit]

Tastien was established as part of a broader movement known as neo-Chinese style, which blends traditional Chinese culture with modern approaches. The chain’s main dish is a Western burger with Chinese bread pockets, often filled with classic Chinese dishes such as Yuxiang shredded pork and Mapo tofu.[5] Tastien’s menu items are 30-40% cheaper than comparable items from major Western fast food brands.[5][6][7]

Tastien's buns and minced meat are inspired by roujiamo, a traditional snack from Shaanxi province in Northwest China.[8]
