Amid that equivalent trek, both of us ate in a Hutong café 15 minutes stroll from the Forbidden City. We had two dishes of dumplings were still somewhat ravenous. Three dishes would have been bounty.

To remain inside your budget, NEVER eat at the touristy spots. They overcharge tourist who not at all like you, don't know better.
