at Gran Melia Jakarta
For aficionados of classic Chinese food, the place to go in Jakarta is Tien Chao at Gran Melia Jakarta. Located in the five-star international hotel, Tien Chao serves up Cantonese and Sichuan creations, the two most famous styles of cuisine in China.
Guests enter Tien Chao restaurant through an impressive reception area, where a pair of jade lions welcome visitors into the elegant dining area. The décor of Tien Chao is a mix of Oriental charm with contemporary elements. The luxurious felt carpets stretch over the dining area, where dapper wooden-backed chairs accompany traditional Chinese round tables. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow for plenty of natural lighting for the diners.
Cantonese cuisine is distinctive for its light and elegant palate, favouring dishes that are simmered, braised and steamed. Light flavouring showcases the quality of ingredients used. On the other hand, Sichuan dishes are famed for their bold and fiery flavouring. Chilli peppers, garlic, dried chilli and bell peppers are some of the key ingredients used in Sichuan dishes. Diners at Tien Chao would be well served to order the Peking duck as well as the selection of tantalising dim sum, which is handmade fresh daily. For families looking to catch up over some delicious dim sum, drop in for Sunday Brunch, where an endless selection of steamed and fried goodies is available at the all-you-can-eat special.
