1881 Chinese Restaurant - Grand Hyatt Shenzhen

In general, the hotel's restaurant is still a combination of Chinese and Western food plus buffet, but this Grand Hyatt actually has 8 restaurants. No wonder Peter, President of Escoffier Greater China, is in charge. The restaurant I experienced is called 1881. The main signature feature is the combination of Beijing and Sichuan. It is a bit like "Beijing Sichuan Office", but in fact, the standard of Sichuan cuisine in Beijing is very high. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a large number of revolutionaries were born in spicy areas, so a large number of excellent chefs were transferred from Sichuan to Beijing. Over time, Sichuan cuisine in Beijing has become a force that cannot be underestimated. But I thought too much. This restaurant is just a Sichuan restaurant that integrates Beijing roast duck. The appearance of Beijing roast duck may be the legendary Feng Shui saying of "there is roast duck and rice star"! Chef Hu of the restaurant is a native Sichuanese, and the Sichuan cuisine at noon tastes authentic. As a loyal fan of Sichuan cuisine, I can't help but give a thumbs up to the Sichuan cuisine in a foreign-funded hotel in a new immigrant city like Shenzhen. The chef's soft-fried bamboo shoot fish is very good, and the cold dishes are also very well seasoned. It made me change the stale impression that Sichuan cuisine belongs to "seeking the lost etiquette in the wild". It seems that Hyatt Hotels, which is known for its catering industry, is "more exciting with Peter"! But why is the restaurant named 1881? I thought it was a special year, such as the founding of a restaurant or hotel group, but in fact, the hotel group is not so old, and China does not have such an old catering brand. The public relations lady said that this is just a convention of using street sign numbers as restaurant names. In fact, there were quite a lot of things that happened in 1881. Both US President Garfield and Russian Tsar Alexander II were stabbed, so it was a year that was not conducive to the king. Lu Xun and Picasso were both born in this year, so this number is conducive to a strong literary tone. This may be me thinking too much!

The environment is elegant, the food is delicious, and the service is great. I will eat and stay here again next time I am on a business trip.

Slice the duck on the spot, one with the skin and meat, and one with the skin. The table is served with white sugar, scallion, cucumber strips, sweet noodle sauce, and a tray of 10 lotus leaf cakes. While it's hot, pick up a cake, add a piece of duck skin, white scallion, cucumber strips, and sauce, wrap it up and bite it, awesome! "Kung Pao Shrimp Balls" Sweet and big shrimp balls, stir-fried with cashews, refreshing; "Small Pot Roasted Silver Cod" The cod is very tender, fried crispy on the outside, and green onions are used as the bottom; "Sesame Spinach" has a thick layer of sesame sauce, a little mustard flavor, and refreshing spinach. It looks small, but it actually tastes a lot; "Three Fresh Pot Stickers" are large in portion, thin skin and thick filling, fresh and juicy. .
