Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou - Caffe Mondo - Reviews

Italian cuisine is the mother of Western cuisine, and even French cuisine began with Italian cuisine. The most authentic Italian cuisine in Guangzhou is the Four Seasons Hotel's Yizhen Restaurant. In 2016, E-Jane was awarded the Italian Excellence in Hospitality Award, the highest honor for Italian restaurants around the world. Whether it's wine, ingredients, the use of virgin olive oil, the chef, the dining environment, Yizhen is authentic Italian. Italian cuisine is much less varied than French cuisine, and the main dishes are pasta and pizza. The brick-baked pizza is Yizhen's signature recommendation, and the open kitchen area of the restaurant has a large column with a rectangular opening on the inside to see the burning flame, which is Yizhen's brick oven. This brick-baked pizza is cooked to order and has a crunchy texture that can't be matched by box-baked pizza, as well as a slight smoky and fruity aroma. The authentic Italian pizza cheese has a particularly strong taste, which is not at the same level as the small pizzeria on the street, and you can eat the most authentic Italian cheese in Yizhen. Italian Western food does not bring as much surprise as French food, and the taste is decent and not easy to make mistakes. Taking spaghetti as an example, the pasta at Yizhen Restaurant is handmade, and after cooking, the texture is smooth and chewy, and with special sauces, it will be more suitable for Chinese tastes than steak. However, there are also unpleasant flavors in Italian cuisine, such as blue cheese, which smells weird, and if a customer orders blue cheese on the day, the whole restaurant will be filled with the special smell of blue cheese. But because of this, there are many repeat Italian customers at Yizhen Restaurant, and in their eyes, Yizhen's Italian cuisine is the most authentic. Yizhen Restaurant is located on the 72nd floor of the Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou, with the Canton Tower outside the floor-to-ceiling glass of the restaurant, and the view is especially wide on sunny days. The restaurant is open all day, and it can be seen from the English name of the restaurant, Caffe Mondo, that it is in the form of a casual café, which is not so formal compared to the 100-storey Bai Xian Hui, and the Yi Zhen restaurant does not have a sommelier to provide wine service, so the service level is naturally inferior to Bai Xian Hui.
