Located strategically in Jakarta’s premium mall Plaza Indonesia, Taste Paradise is an upscale Chinese restaurant which prides itself on exquisite Chinese cuisine.


Part of the famed Paradise group with locations all across Southeast Asia, Dubai and London, Taste Paradise, Jakarta is a favourite dining destination amongst the city’s business executives and the rich and famous alike. Occupying a large palatial space with entrances from Plaza Indonesia and Grand Hyatt Indonesia, Taste Paradise promises a unique refined Chinese fine-dining experience in an elegant ultra-luxurious space.

Newly re-opened after its renovation, visitors will be charmed by Taste Paradise’s sleek and modernistic reception. The restaurant’s main dining hall features a full-length gorgeous lush green floral carpet with seas of ubiquitous Chinese round-table seating with elegant walnut dining chairs. Dainty sets of exquisite matching china are arranged neatly on the table tops around an elegant Chinese turntable. A lattice of handsome wooden beams criss-cross above the lofted dining area while a scattering of down lights and intricate chandeliers provide illumination for the diners. An array of framed mirror installations, stretches of floral wallpaper and elaborate interior accoutrements round off the restaurant’s impressive décor.

As is customary in quality Chinese dining venues, Taste Paradise offers an array of premium Chinese teas sourced meticulously from boutique suppliers. Aside from fine Chinese teas, diners can choose from an extensive range of exquisite wines, which the restaurant has stocked in its newly built wine cellar. A highlight of the dining experience at Taste Paradise is its famous classic dim sum – small bites that are traditionally shared amongst close family and friends. The restaurant’s dim sum selection features classics such as scrumptious baked barbequed pork bun and the decadent steamed salted egg yolk custard bun.

Combination of pan-seared foie gras, wasabi mayonnaise prawn and sliced Peking duck skin

The Taste Paradise menu is authentically Chinese in the sense that one orders items to share, hence the prominence of the Chinese turntable meant to cater to families and large groups. Of the multitude of culinary delights that the restaurant offers, one finds it hard to sample everything in one seating. It is much more advisable to try a few new items at each visit. One item that comes highly recommended is the signature superior shark’s fin in supreme broth accompanied by crispy spring roll served in a Japanese stone pot – a sumptuous culinary gem featuring premium shark fin braised to exquisite perfection. Another highlight of the menu is the trio appetiser featuring pan-seared foie gras, wasabi mayonnaise prawn and sliced Peking duck skin.
