MOST of us are familiar with the European breakfast, or the continental breakfast, which is a simple and efficient choice for breakfast, but few know exactly what makes a nice European dinner, since there are so many things from different countries to enjoy. Kempinski Hotel Shenzhen is offering us a chance to find out this September. Through Sept. 30, the Seasons Restaurant at the hotel is catering a European food-themed buffet dinner every evening. Their culinary team has prepared a wide selection of European dishes, including red wine-stewed beef, tilapia with dill and lemon, lobster grilled with cheese, grilled cod with butter and herbs, crispy grilled Norwegian salmon, stuffed sole with shrimp and lemon butter sauce, and Italian ham and beef bacon roll. Of course, there are also pizzas with various fillings, and pasta. Seafood fans can eat oysters to their heart’s content. Those with a sweet tooth will be delighted to try their delicate French chocolate cake, brownies, and various flavored mousses. There are also a wide variety of beverages to choose from. The buffet dinner costs 428 yuan (US$62) per person, inclusive of VAT and service charge. Children between 1.2 meters tall and 1.4 meters tall can enjoy it for half price while those under 1.2 meters can eat free.
