UPDATE China World’s Summer Palace restaurant to re-open
After five months of renovations, China World Hotel’s Summer Palace restaurant will re-open for business on May 23 26 says Communications Director Diane Fermin.
Classic Cantonese dishes still feature on a menu that now includes Huaiyang cuisine (from southern China). The dim sum lunch also returns - from 11 AM on weekdays and 9 AM on weekends.
Fermin says that while Summer Palace will have “New World” and “Old World” wines, the emphasis will be on French Bordeaux.
The restaurant will hold a “Road to Beijing” wine dinner and charity auction on May 22 (RMB2008), with part of the proceeds going to Care for Children.
The eight-course dinner is a clever pairing of wine with foods associated with cities that have hosted the Olympics. The “2000” course, for example, includes “Sydney rock lobster medallion with black truffle and sea urchin sauce, while the “2008“, not surprisingly, is “Peking duck with crispy skin and 2008-year-old marinade.”
That’s some mighty old marinade!
For more information about the wine dinner, or to book space, call 6505-5838.
