Tian Jie Restaurant, loosely translated into “Sky Garden,” specializes in pan-Chinese cuisine while concentrating on Hangzhounese flavors. The melding of different regional cuisines and cultures is reflected in its décor as well as in its food. Tian Jie is aptly named; it is located on the highest floor of the hotel and boasts an amazing view of downtown Hangzhou and the West Lake. The interior of the restaurant is no less impressive; the foyer is lined with marble with cascading waves of wood on the walls and ceiling as an overarching theme.

With the holidays in the air - and Christmas right around the corner - there is a lot of buzz in the air over getting hotels, restaurants, and other venues set up for the big rush of travelers and guests who will be enjoying great food in relaxing surroundings with their friends and loved ones. I had the good fortune of visiting the Holiday Inn Hangzhou to sample some of the wonderful dishes that are on offer for the diner who wants to have something special and decidedly Hangzhou-style on their plate.

Experience opulent and luxurious Chinese cuisine.
As I entered Summer Palace, I was immediately transported to another world. With its carved rosewood furniture, Chinese screens, gold design motifs, and classical Chinese guzheng music, the restaurant’s ambiance evokes the opulence and luxury of China’s past imperial times.

Black sesame seed kitchen

3 Black Sesame Hutong, Dongcheng District // 北京东城区黑芝麻胡同3号
BeijingChina
The Black Sesame Seed Kitchen is a fun restaurant for foreigner looking for good quality Chinese food. Personally most of the Chinese food I have found in Beijing has tended to be tasty but nothing to write home about. Black Sesame Seed really put Chinese food in a fresh light, and being able to watch the chefs make the food fresh leaves everything more satisfying.

Started by a Peking University MBA graduate and her husband, Qin Restaurant celebrates the 3000 year history of the Qin, China’s oldest stringed instrument, through nightly shows and special events featuring China’s greatest Qin masters. On the evening we visited, we were serenaded by a classic Chinese beauty on an elevated stage in the center of the dining room.

Considering the Hilton Wangfujing has been open a mere 14 months, it has an impressively well-established bar and dining area, comprising Flames cocktail bar, Vasco’s Macanese restaurant, the Library lobby lounge, and Chynna Chinese restaurant.
It was the latter - the Hilton Wangfujing’s flagship Chinese restaurant - that we had the pleasure of visiting recently.
