Kempinski Hotel Western Restaurant - Business Reviews

Kempinski's buffet does not have much advantage over common categories such as seafood and desserts, and the quantity and taste are lackluster. The biggest highlight is that it has added many local specialties such as barbecue and cold noodles, and the products are more authentic and distinctive in the cafeteria.

Unlike the teppanyaki barbecue of many buffets, Kempinski's barbecue is more "down-to-earth". In addition to the common grilled chicken chops and lamb chops, there are also chicken wings, eggplant, oysters, and even the Sichuan-Chongqing characteristic tin foil roasted brain flower and small yellow croaker can be seen. Sprinkled with cumin powder, chili flakes and chopped green onion sesame seeds, the crispy skin and grease sizzle, spicy and refreshing. The store also has a special area for cold dishes, cucumber shreds, fungus, bean sprouts, chicken nuggets, etc. There is also a brine rabbit head that rarely appears in Chongqing cafeterias, but it is a little dry, and the fat is not fat enough. In addition, there is a seafood stewed noodle dish that is worth trying, this dish is made to order, with thick noodles mixed with Zhuhou sauce and soy sauce, and braised with flower nails and river shrimp, the color and fragrance are quite attractive, the noodles are flavorful and chewy, but the taste is strong and easy to get greasy.

Kempinski doesn't have many varieties of sashimi and seafood, and the freshness is compromised due to the slow replenishment, as if the pike crab is often left out for too long, and the meat loses its elasticity. Unlimited crayfish in summer is a specialty, garlic, oil stew, spicy, pickled pepper, sauce sticky, eating is also varied, but the size is small, and it is not enjoyable to eat. It is recommended to try both minced garlic and oil stew. In addition, the store claims to use Häagen-Dazs crum-filled ice cream, but its ice cream stall is occasionally empty. This kind of negligence is really not due to the restaurants under the international hotel brand.

Compared with brands such as Regent and R&F Hyatt, Kempinski is smaller in size, and the height of the second floor also makes it less than ideal. However, there is a special children's play area in the store, which is very suitable for guests with children. The number of waiters in the restaurant is small, but fortunately, the service maintains the level of StarWorld Hotel, the attitude is friendly, and the speed of cleaning up the dishes is also ideal.
