MOST of us are familiar with European breakfast, or continental breakfast, a simple and efficient choice for our first daily meal. But few know exactly what makes a nice European dinner, since there are so many things from different countries to enjoy. Kempinski Hotel Shenzhen has offered us a chance to find out. Until the end of November, the Seasons Restaurant at the hotel is catering a European food-themed buffet dinner every Friday to Sunday evening. Their culinary team has prepared a wide selection of European dishes, including stewed mussels with white wine and garlic, grilled Iceland cod with butter and herbs, crispy grilled Norwegian salmon, asparagus soup with truffle, pizzas of various fillings, and pasta. Seafood fans can eat oysters and crayfish to their heart’s content. Those with a sweet tooth will be delighted to try their delicate blueberry and cherry cake, Oreo rolls and strawberries dipped in white chocolate. There are also a wide variety of beverages to choose from. The buffet dinner costs 428 yuan (US$60) per person, inclusive of VAT and service charge. Time: 5:30 p.m.-9:30 p.m., Friday to Sunday until Nov. 30 Tel: 8888-8888 ext. 8318 Add: Haide Street 3, Houhaibin Road, Nanshan District Metro: Line 2 or 11, Houhai Station (Li Dan) |
