Sofitel Guangzhou Sunrich Hotel by LE GRILL - Champs Elysées Steakhouse - business reviews

Champs-Élysées Steakhouse is a well-known western restaurant in Guangzhou, located on the sixth floor of Sofitel Guangzhou Sunfon. Sofitel Guangzhou Sunrich is a high-end hotel brand owned by AccorHotels in France. As the name suggests, Champs-Élysées Steakhouse is a western restaurant with a focus on steak. The cheapest beef served at the Champs-Élysées Steakhouse is Inner Mongolian beef, which costs around 200 yuan, but the chef recommends Australian Black Angus and Wagyu, which are common meats in mid-to-high-end steakhouses on the market. The Champs-Élysées Steakhouse has a decent amount of meat, with New Zealand lamb chops and Iberian black pork on the main course menu. The most important test of grilled steak is the chef's mastery of the heat, and the chefs at Champs-Elysées Steakhouse deserve to be recognized for their performance as the medium-rare steak is pink in a half-rare state, with a texture that can chew out the gravy. To taste the steaks of the Champs-Elysées steakhouse, it is recommended to experience it with your nose first. It was once said that Westerners eat by their noses. The taste of Western food is different from Chinese food, which has already defined the taste of the dish during the cooking process, while Western food is a variety of dishes that can be eaten directly or dipped in sauce and wine, and the taste of the food is all about which food you put in your mouth and blend it. The Champs-Élysées Steakhouse's open kitchen is divided into a steak area, which is dedicated to grilling meats, and a cold food area for preparing appetizers and desserts. There are also different types of knives available here, and the types of knives seem to be similar, and it is difficult for the waiter to say why, so it is easy to get confused. In the Champs-Élysées Steakhouse, there are two open wine cellars, which are also dining areas, and can hold small gatherings of about 10 people. Dining surrounded by rows of wine is a great way to please wine lovers. The Champs-Élysées steakhouse has a sommelier, but the sommelier is not always there. Even so, the restaurant's wine service is on point, with the waiter pouring a small amount of wine into the glass, giving a brief introduction to the wine, and then continuing to pour the wine after the guests have tasted it and received affirmation. In addition, the white wine glass is served to the guests after being chilled, which shows that the restaurant serves a certain degree of professionalism. Champs-Élysées Steakhouse is honest and not over-exaggerating in its introduction to its chef, who is currently Belgian and the rest of the chefs are Cantonese natives. The reason why I mention this is because there are often some Western restaurants that use Michelin as a gimmick, as long as they have worked in a Michelin restaurant, they all use it to advertise that they have a three-star Michelin chef. It should be clarified that Guangzhou is not in the scope of the Michelin selection for the time being, and it is very difficult to obtain the title of three-Michelin star chef, and it is quite rare to receive this award. Therefore, when looking for food in Guangzhou, you don't have to be overly superstitious about Michelin. The restaurant environment of the Champs-Élysées Steakhouse is decent, with plenty of light by the window during the day and dim lighting at night, and there is no lighting for each table, so it is recommended to choose a table close to the light source. The Champs-Elysées steakhouse is slightly inferior to Ebony in terms of service, and sloppiness such as forgetting to put on the tableware happens from time to time, but overall it is quite satisfactory.
