The pinyin name "Qingtang wanzi" brings up nothing anywhere: GNews, GBooks, GScholar. The translation comes up as "Clear Soup Meatballs", which is obviously a rather generic sounding dish, especially in Asia.

A search of the Chinese characters brings up a basic soup, with lots of small sized meatballs floating in chopped greens (makes me hangry). There's a possibility that it's somehow distinctive within Chinese sources, so this absolutely requires a check by a Chinese language reader to see if there are any RSs talking about this soup as a notable Beijing variety. If they are made of pork, pork balls could be a good merge if there are only weak sources. Cheers, Estheim (talk) 23:11, 22 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
